Things to look out for

• This gem will load all data into memory, although I had no problems with this and chose to keep it simple - with a big enough export you may run into issues.

• There is no test suite, there is not much to test. The code in this gem is very simple and I hope the clean layout will make it trivial for you to change this code to suit your needs.
