toCsv

A small utility function that turns a list of objects into a csv table.

Import into you're javascript environment.

var list = [{
  name: 'Dave',
  age: 35,
  address: {
    street: "1 Acacia Road",
    town: "Bondon"
  }
},{
  name: 'Bob',
  age: 40,
  address: {
    street: "2 Sesame Street",
    town: "New York"
  }
}];

toCsv(list);

This will return a string containing:

name,age,address.street,address.town
Dave,35,1 Acacia Road,Bondon
Bob,40,2 Sesame Street,New York

MongoDB

I created and often use this for turning the result of an aggregate query into a csv. e.g.

load('toCsv.js');

var r = db.myCollection.aggregate([{
  $match:{}
}])

print(toCsv(r.result));
