Notes from Josh Young Fork

Basically, the only thing I've done to this package is update some dependencies to work with React 18. I've also added a few props to the csvToHtmlTable utility that I needed and found helpful:

• fillEmpty is a prop that fills undefined cells with an empty space ( )
• headerTitle adds a row to the thead above the trs with a title. Uses a new className of csv-html-header-title
• bodyHash can be used to add an id property to the element for use in hash linking.
• renderRightComponent and renderLeftComponent can be used to put a component on either side of the Header Title (if provided).
  • Note: You must specify a rightComponentSpan or leftComponentSpan for each element you're adding to the header depending on how wide they.

React CSV to HTML Table (Only 3Kb unzipped)

CSV is the simplest form of storing a tabular data. Each record consists of one or more fields, separated by commas. The use of the comma as a field separator is the source of the name for this file format. React csv to html table is a simple reactjs library that takes CSV file content as input and renders a simple HTML table.

Supports React >= v18 (See the original package for support for lower versions of React)

<CsvToHtmlTable
  data={sampleData}
  csvDelimiter=","
/>

Easily customizable via css using classnames

<CsvToHtmlTable
  data={sampleData}
  csvDelimiter=","
  tableClassName="table table-striped table-hover"
/>

The above code displays a table like below which is styled using bootstrap.
