csv-manipulation-tool

A CSV-manipulation tool developed at Ellar Development for managing e-mail lists for our web-game Nordicmafia.

This tool is probably not compatible with most CSV-lists, and are primarly a tool for merging and subtracting emails from CSV's.

The tool works by taking a csv-document ("source") and another one ("input") and compare them to eachother (performing adjustments).

The source-document should only consist of one field, with header title "email".

Please read the code for better understanding.

Installation

npm install csv-manipulation-tool
