A simple react component to allow download CSV file from js object

## Installation

```sh
npm install --save react-csv-downloader
```

## Usage

Use with children component

```jsx
import CsvDownloader from 'react-csv-downloader';
<CsvDownloader>
  <button>Download</button>
</CsvDownloader>;
```

Use without children component

```jsx
<CsvDownloader text="Download" />
```

### Datas

pass the downloaded datas as a component prop

```jsx
const datas = [
  {
    cell1: 'row 1 - cell 1',
    cell2: 'row 1 - cell 2',
  },
  {
    cell1: 'row 2 - cell 1',
    cell2: 'row 2 - cell 2',
  },
];

<CsvDownloader datas={datas} />;
```

### Datas (on demand with async function resolver)

pass a function to compute datas to be downloaded

```jsx
const asyncFnComputeDate = () => {
  // do whatever you need async
  return Promise.resolve([
    {
      cell1: 'row 1 - cell 1',
      cell2: 'row 1 - cell 2',
    },
    {
      cell1: 'row 2 - cell 1',
      cell2: 'row 2 - cell 2',
    },
  ]);
};

<CsvDownloader datas={asyncFnComputeDate} />;
```

### Column

pass the columns definition as a component prop to change the cell display name. If column isn't passed the cell display name is automatically defined with datas keys

```jsx
const columns = [
  {
    id: 'cell1',
    displayName: 'Cell 1',
  },
  {
    id: 'cell2',
    displayName: 'Cell 2',
  },
];

<CsvDownloader columns={columns} />;
```

You can also use the columns definition to set the columns display order
