This gem is created to be used with jekyll webpages.It does one thing. On page build, it converts the _data/projects.yml file into the csv file in the format the Code for America requested and places it in projects/projects.csv
It's rather fragile code at the moment and I welcome anyone that would like to help me write tests and increase it's usability etc before publishing it to rubygems.
add the following to your gem file in jekyll
group :jekyll_plugins do
gem 'cfacsv', :git => 'git://github.com/BenRuns/cfacsv.git', :branch => 'master'
end
make sure that you're using the following headers in the yaml file
name description link_url code_url type categories status
run jekyll build
that's it
