CSV loader

[nkint]

Now done with:

yarn add -D csv-loader

and in webpack.config.js:

const buildWebpackConfig = require('webpack-preset-accurapp')
module.exports = buildWebpackConfig([
  (context) => ({
    module: {
      loaders: [
        {
          test: /\.csv$/,
          loader: 'csv-loader',
          options: {
            dynamicTyping: true,
            header: true,
            skipEmptyLines: true,
          },
        },
      ],
    },
  }),
])

I don't like so much the idea behind the csv loader. If it's a relatively small file it is fine, but with large CSV, you will end up having a big bundle.js file with the JSONified CSV in it.

Is there a config for the csv-loader that works for all? We are having a hard time defining it.

How about importing the csv with the raw-loader and parsing it with papaparse or d3 or something else?

Concerning the big csvs issue it's on the developer to be careful with that.

It's more useful in the prototyping phase than in production, so the "bundle too big" problem can be forgot.

It's very useful for light data analysis, for example for @gio_magni
