You can convert the compressed json using json2csv

npm install json-compressor-for-csv
npm install json2csv

const compressor = require('json-compressor-for-csv'),
	json2csv = require('json2csv');
	
compressor.compress({
        list: _uncompressed
    }, function (jsv) {
        //console.log("COMPRESSED", jsv);
        json2csv({
                data: JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(jsv.partials)),
                fields: jsv.allKeys,
                del: ';'
            },
            function (err, csv) {
