I have a relatively simple CRUD intranet web app. (It is built using Meteor and Mongo if that makes any difference). What is the easiest way to enable a few analysts using the web app to explore the data in it? Right now my plan is:
-
Create endpoints that export all tables in the app as denormalized csv files. (done)
-
Write a screen scraper that updates the data in a plot.ly cloud project. (Is that even possible?)
-
Create a link in the app that runs the scraper and then either redirects to plot.ly or shows any errors that occurred during the script’s execution.
