Auto-create json and xml APIs from csv files. Instant endpoints without any hassle.

## Why should I use this?

* Your boss/client hates you so they insist on sending you .csv files for their data.
* You need to do a quick prototype and don't want to waste time importing / converting
* You're bored and want to write an app with pre-historical data that you found on a floppy!
* Your life depends on it (**Disclaimer:** *Use at your own risk, jk you should be fine!*)

## Installation

Install it running:

    $ gem install csv2api

## Usage

### Basic Example Code
To read from the current directory, run the following command

  $ csv2api

```console
Starting CSV2API...

2 csv files detected. Creating API endpoints...

tasks.csv - http://localhost:3000/tasks
weather.csv - http://localhost:3000/weather
```

**Note**: Endpoints can be accessed with the filename (spreadsheet view) or their `.json`, `.xml` extensions.
