Example usage
For our examples we will be using the tables from www.coolgithubprojects.com. We use .convert for local HTML files and .convertUrl for online retrieval.
// Site was saved locally in process folder. The follow code will read it and generate the json.var echo = ;echo;
// Here we grab the tables from the site and save the data to a csv (default type).var echo = ;echo;
// Lastly, we filter the tables to only include the month table (based on table ID).var echo = ;echo;/* OUTPUT EXAMPLE : ./output/month.csv"0","Language","Change","Name""","JavaScript","+5607","iojs/io.js""","Go","+5439","golang/go""","Other","+4581","prakhar1989/awesome-courses""","JavaScript","+4045","dimsemenov/PhotoSwipe""","PHP","+3284","isohuntto/openbay"...*/
