params encoding

[jorakdev]

is encoding to ANSI working on createArrayCsvWriter(params)?

Hi @jorakdev , I’m not too sure about what you mean by that. What are you trying to achieve?

[jorakdev]

Hi @ryu1kn, thank you for your reply. I would like to change the default encoding to ANSI like this:

const createCsvWriter = require('csv-writer').createArrayCsvWriter; const csvWriter = createCsvWriter({ header: ['NAME', 'LANGUAGE'], path: 'path/to/file.csv', encoding: 'ANSI' });

But but by reading what ANSI encoding means. I think there is some confusion over my understanding of what ANSI encoding is. So what do you think is the right way to do it?

Thanks. :)

Hmm... you can specify encoding that Node.js supports, and ANSI is not one of them.

Wonder if you want ascii

"hex" encoding generates a 0 byte file, so I assume the answer is not quite correct.
