CSV To Markdown Table Generator
- Comments:
- 46
Update July 8, 2019: Added more graceful pipe | and backslash \ handling.
While doing code reviews on GitHub I find myself profiling a lot of SQL queries, getting EXPLAIN output into a markdown format for GitHub became very important, and was a huge pain to do by hand.
While there were tools out there, nothing I could easily copy and paste tab seperated query results into, so I created this. The markdown this outputs should work with most table supporting Markdowns flavors such as Markdown Extra and GitHub Flavored Markdown.
The default tab separated setting is very useful for pasting straight from Excel or other tabular data sources like SQL editors.
Caveat - while it does essentially parse CSV it is not quotation mark aware. If need or demand arises I may look into it.
The script is available on GitHub and is Node.js ready. More details can be found on GitHub. It is also available via npm.
Super Easy Use!

It breaks if column value has commas in it, even though the entire value is wrapped in double quotes

Would be great if there wasn't a space character at the end of each line. Some markdown applications (Hugo) can't handle this.
Thanks, it is very useful tool, my friend Daniel who recommend me

Awesome tool! I was looking for it using google queries like "csv to tabular", "csv to pseudo-graphic", "sql export to stackoverflow format table" and nothing came out. Only after I learned that this table format has its own "table Markdown" name I managed to find this super useful page, so maybe it'd be a good idea to tag the page to more general requests
Anyway, thank you once again!
Nearly 10 years later, and this is still extremely helpful for showing tables in GitHub code reviews! Thanks for building.
