[ParcelJS](https://parceljs.org/) is a module bundler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[SheetJS](https://sheetjs.com) is a JavaScript library for reading and writing
|
|
|
|
data from spreadsheets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This demo uses ParcelJS and SheetJS to export data. We'll explore how to bundle
|
|
|
|
SheetJS in a site using ParcelJS and how to export data to spreadsheets.

This demo focuses on integration details with the ParcelJS bundler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The demos follow the ["Export Tutorial"](/docs/getting-started/examples/export),
|
|
|

## Integration Details
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[The "Frameworks" section](/docs/getting-started/installation/frameworks) covers
|
|
|
|
installation with Yarn and other package managers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After installing the SheetJS module in a RollupJS project, `import` statements
|
|
|
|
can load relevant parts of the library:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
|
import { read, utils, writeFileXLSX } from 'xlsx';
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|

|
:::warning Parcel Bug

|
|
|
|
|
This demo follows the [Export Example](/docs/getting-started/examples/export).

|
|
|
cd sheetjs-parceljs
|
|
|
|
npm init -y
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

**ParcelJS v1 did not support `import` statements within inline scripts.**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For ParcelJS version 1, the entire script should be copied to `index.js` and the
|
|
|
|
main `index.html` page should load the `index.js` script:

|
|
|
2) Install the SheetJS NodeJS module:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<Tabs groupId="pm">
|
|
|
|
<TabItem value="npm" label="npm">
|
|
|
|
<CodeBlock language="bash">{`\
|
|
|
|
npm i --save https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-${current}/xlsx-${current}.tgz`}
|
|
|
|
</CodeBlock>
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
|
|
<TabItem value="pnpm" label="pnpm">
|
|
|
|
<CodeBlock language="bash">{`\
|
|
|
|
pnpm install https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-${current}/xlsx-${current}.tgz`}
|
|
|
|
</CodeBlock>
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
|
|
<TabItem value="yarn" label="Yarn" default>
|
|
|
|
<CodeBlock language="bash">{`\
|
|
|
|
yarn add https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-${current}/xlsx-${current}.tgz`}
|
|
|
|
</CodeBlock>
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
|
|
</Tabs>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Development
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3) Run the ParcelJS development server:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
2023-12-05 03:46:54 +00:00
|
|
|
npx -y parcel@2.10.3 index.html
|
2023-10-22 05:40:02 +00:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The process will print a URL:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Server running at http://localhost:1234
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4) Access the URL from the previous step (typically `http://localhost:1234`) in
|
|
|
|
a web browser and click the "Click to Export!" button to generate a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Production
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5) Edit `package.json` and remove the following line:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js title="package.json (search for this line and remove)"
|
|
|
|
"main": "index.js"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6) Build the production site:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
npx -y parcel@2.10.0 build index.html
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The production site will be stored in the `dist` folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7) Start a local web server and serve the `dist` folder:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
npx http-server dist
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Access the displayed URL (typically `http://localhost:8080/`) in a web browser.
|
|
|
|
Click on "Click here to export" to generate a file.
