Customizing the CSV format

Active Admin provides CSV file downloads on the index screen for each Resource.
By default it will render a CSV file with all the content columns of your
registered model.

Customizing the CSV format is as simple as customizing the index page.

ActiveAdmin.register Post do
csv do
column :title
column(“Author”) { |post| post.author.full_name }
end
end

You can set custom csv options:

ActiveAdmin.register Post do
csv :options => { :force_quotes => true } do
column :title
column(“Author”) { |post| post.author.full_name }
end
end

You can set options for the CSV format system-wide:

# config/initializers/active_admin.rb
# Set the CSV builder separator (default is “,”)
config.csv_column_separator = ‘;’

# Set the CSV builder options (default is {})
config.csv_options = { :force_quotes => true }
