# CSV Export
A set of functions to convert data into CSV values, and enable a browser download of the CSV data.
## Installation
Install the module
```bash
pnpm install @woocommerce/csv-export --save
```
## Usage
```js
onClick = () => {
// Create a file name based on a title and optional query. Will return a timestamped
// name, for example: revenue-2018-11-01-interval-month.csv
const name = generateCSVFileName( 'revenue', { interval: 'month' } );
// Create a string of CSV data, `headers` is an array of row headers, put at the top
// of the file. `rows` is a 2 dimensional array. Each array is a line in the file,
// separated by newlines. The second-level arrays are the data points in each row.
// For header format, see https://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-admin/#/components/table?id=headers-2
// For rows format, see https://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-admin/#/components/table?id=rows-1
const data = generateCSVDataFromTable( headers, rows );
// Triggers a browser UI to save a file, named the first argument, with the contents of
// the second argument.
downloadCSVFile( name, data );
