CSV2API

Auto-create json and xml APIs from csv files. Instant endpoints without any hassle.

Why should I use this?

• Your boss/client hates you so they insist on sending you .csv files for their data.
• You need to do a quick prototype and don't want to waste time importing / converting
• You're bored and want to write an app with pre-historical data that you found on a floppy!
• Your life depends on it (Disclaimer: Use at your own risk, jk you should be fine!)

Installation

Install it running:

$ gem install csv2api
