Parse each table entry into object #56

Closed cckelly closed 7 years ago

cckelly commented 7 years ago

Hey there! Right now each table cell gets parsed into it's own key in the Map that gets returned, would be great to get the entire entry as an object and grab the columns from there.

hey Charles, yeah. this is a good idea. We're due for a whole result reformat. what would be the best shape for it? cheers

cckelly commented 7 years ago

Using the 'Licensed Games' as an example from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nintendo_Entertainment_System_games, it could return something along the lines of:

{
  { 'Title': '10-Yard Fight', 'Publisher': 'Nintendo' },
  { 'Title': '1942', 'Publisher': 'Capcom' }
  etc
}

Thoughts?
