Functional Requirements

Create a node project that does the following:

[X] Takes a CSV file destination as an input. The input can be a URL or file on machine. [X] Allows the consumer to pass a transformer function that will run for each row of the CSV.

Optional Goals:

[X] Add ability to run a hook before the file is read. [X] Add ability to run a hook after the file is processed. [X] Capture the time it takes for the file to get processed.

How to run the project?

npm start or npm run start:file to read the example CSV named numbers.csv

Additional Notes:

Pros and Cons (if any) of the chosen approach.

Pros

• Flexible approach to passing transformer function
• Complete control of the transformer function's return value
• Memory aware by not dumping the entire file into memory (reading line by line)
• Hooks before/after file read

Cons

• This approach doesn't not take into account headers in the CSV format (TODO)
• Approach only work on file:// paths not URLs (TODO)

TODO

[] Implement tests to make sure the transform function keeps its core behavior [] Implement URL support
