remote url papaparse large csv

trying to read this csv on a public dropbox link. It’s too large to display in dropbox (200MB), but not too big to download. I have it downloading automatically & first row header as labels for the object of each row’s properties. I can change ?dl=0 to ?dl=1 in the link to automatically download without papaparse since it’s a dropbox link, by the way.

Papa.parse("https://www.dropbox.com/s/m5kr9u52eij99mq/worldcitiespop.csv?dl=0", {
  download: true,
  header: true,
  step: function(results) {
    console.log(results.data)
  },
  complete: function() {
    console.log("All done!");
  }
});

So if there is no issue with paparase I’m closing this issue.

@NickCarducci - definitely post this on StackOverflow instead. Because it’s asynchronous, line 25 executes before the step function. You also cannot have this in your render function because it will cause a setState() loop that will never stop downloading the file. I’m going ahead and locking this thread, but the community on StackOverflow loves this kind of stuff and will be helpful in talking to you about Javascript.
