Add excel exports on events

[aayush19saxena]

Hey @mattharris5 and @mitchellharper12 , I was looking to add excel export feature on a particular event. I am not really familiar with how the gem works, so I followed along the lines of how it was being used on mentor.rb.

When I download and open the excel file, it says the file is corrupted..

[mattharris5]

Unfortunately it always gives that corruption message... but actually the file is just fine and it seems to be an erroneous error

[aayush19saxena]

Oh really? I see.. Is there a way I could test this with some sample data?

[mattharris5]

You can generate a bunch of test data using the fabricators that are setup in test/fabricators. Use the PopulateSampleData class to generate sample data in dev. It doesn't currently fabricate event data, but that would be a great idea. Take a look and you can probably figure out how to add an events fabricator. Maybe look at test/fabricators/scholarship_application_fabricator.rb as a starting point for how that works.

Thanks Matt, looking forward to working on that.
