Martin-Andersen commented 5 years ago

I am downloading data from google firestore and saving it to a file. Names withs ÆÅØ and other letters are mis-interpretation because of missing UTF-8 encoding.

How v´can I fix that? my code are running in nodejs 8

Hi @Martin-Andersen , if the downloaded data is UTF-8, you shouldn't need to do anything as the default value for encoding parameter for csvWriters are UTF-8. 👉 README

The only thing I can say! blame it on MS Excel (; It is working.

And thanks for creating the csv-writer
