Yeah we can use two option for dataset

1. View
2. Download On view we can display the data in table like as in the excel and on download we can simply let the user download that data.

This might be a solution: http://datapipes.okfnlabs.org/html/ . It's a tool by Open Knowledge International themselves.

For example, to show this data https://raw.githubusercontent.com/okfnepal/election-nepal-data/master/Political%20Parties%20Contact%20Info.csv, we'll add this url to http://datapipes.okfnlabs.org/csv/html/?url= and get the HTML table as output.

Demo: http://datapipes.okfnlabs.org/csv/html/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Fokfnepal%2Felection-nepal-data%2Fmaster%2FPolitical%2520Parties%2520Contact%2520Info.csv

I think @sagargg just solved this issue, Is this done by using the solution proposed by @studenton or was done by using new way.

@nikeshbalami Not sure, but looking at the commits, I think he adopted some different approach. It's even better.

[nikeshbalami]

Yeah I also like it, Kudos @sagargg :1st_place_medal:

@sagargg The third column data on every table contains hyperlink. I tried but didn't found from where it was coming. May be you could fix that.

[nikeshbalami]

Ohh Yeah, I didn't noticed it previously :P

@sagargg The tracked down the problem to custom_formatting. I think there is some reason you put it up there, so I haven't tried to fix it.

 <script type="text/javascript">
        function format_link(link) {
            if (link)
                return "<a href='" + link + "' target='_blank'>" + link + "</a>";
            else
                return "";
        }
        CsvToHtmlTable.init({
            csv_path: '{{ dataset_id.GitHub_Link }}',
            element: 'table-container',
            allow_download: true,
            csv_options: {separator: ',', delimiter: '"'},
            datatables_options: {"paging": true},
            custom_formatting: [[2, format_link]]
        });
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $('#table-container-table_wrapper').DataTable();

        });
