# Electron
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This library is compatible with Electron and should just work out of the box.
|
||
|
|
The demonstration uses Electron v1.7.5. The library is added via `require` from
|
||
|
|
the render process. It can also be required from the main process, as shown in
|
||
|
|
this demo to render a version string in the About dialog on OSX.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The standard HTML5 `FileReader` techniques from the browser apply to Electron.
|
||
|
|
This demo includes a drag-and-drop box as well as a file input box, mirroring
|
||
|
|
the [SheetJS Data Preview Live Demo](http://oss.sheetjs.com/js-xlsx/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since electron provides an `fs` implementation, `readFile` and `writeFile` can
|
||
|
|
be used in conjunction with the standard dialogs. For example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var dialog = require('electron').remote.dialog;
|
||
|
|
var o = (dialog.showOpenDialog({ properties: ['openFile'] })||[''])[0];
|
||
|
|
var workbook = X.readFile(o);
|
||
|
|
```
