Administrate::Field::CSV

A custom Administrate field to present Strings with CSV content in a table format on you show views. This field uses truncated text for index views, and a text area for form views.

• Administrate >= 1.0
• Rails >= 6.0 (including Rails 8)
• Sprockets or Propshaft — the field ships plain CSS, so no SCSS compiler is required

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'administrate-field-csv'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Add the below to your app/assets/config/manifest.js if your administrate configuration is using the asset pipeline.

//= link administrate-field-csv/application.css

ATTRIBUTE_TYPES = {
    # ...
    csv_text: Field::CSV.with_options(
      headers: true,
      col_sep: ',',
      row_sep: "\r\n",
      quote_char: '"',
      return_headers: false,
      truncate: 50,
      blank_sign: "--"
    )
}

All possible options for the field are shown above along with their default values. Refer to the ruby CSV documentation for details around the possible values for headers, col_sep, row_sep, quote_char and return_headers.
