Blogdown not rendering with CSV files, unmarshall CSV

[rubenzunguze]

Hi R Studio folks.
I am trying to build a website using R blogdown. However, I when I try to render it it does not. The following outcome pops-up when I try to render.

blogdown::serve_site()

Did anyone get the same error? How did you overcome it?

I have a blogdown generated website but I never encountered .csv input files.
Because you use the statement blogdown::serve_site() you must be using Hugo to compile the site.

In order to be able to help you some questions:

• did this work before or is this your first try
• what Hugo template do you use
• can you show us your Hugo configuration file config.toml

Hi. I overcame this by copying all the .csv files and paste them in a /static/csv. Them O redirected my rmd chunck to read from this folder. Someone said that csv files need their own folder called csv to work properly with Hugo. I am using educenter Hugo theme.

I use csv files because I need to embed charts and tables in my website. Is there a better solution to embed charts and tables in a blog without using csv?

Thanks for answering.
