How to export JavaScript data to a CSV file without server interaction?
To export JavaScript data to a CSV file without server interaction, we can set a link to a base64 string with the CSV content.
For instance, we write
const csvString = csvRows.join("\r\n");
a.href = "data:application/csv;charset=utf-8," + encodeURIComponent(csvString);
to create the csvString with the CSV data.
Then we put the data in a base64 string with
"data:application/csv;charset=utf-8," + encodeURIComponent(csvString)
And we assign the value to a.href where a is an a element.
Then when we click on the link, the data will be downloaded.
