I am working with Dash and want to provide a link to download a file (e.g. a CSV).  
I can see that dash supports the following, but I could not find any of these functions in `DashCoreComponents` for Julia.  
Am I missing anything? Or does anyone know a workaround?

- `dcc.send_file` - send a file from disk
- `dcc.send_data_frame` - send a `DataFrame` , using one of its writer methods
- `dcc.send_bytes` - send a bytestring or the result of a bytestring writer
- `dcc.send_string` - send a string or the result of a string writer

here is the python example I was considering
