# React
The `xlsx.core.min.js` and `xlsx.full.min.js` scripts are designed to be dropped
2017-09-24 23:40:09 +00:00
into web pages with script tags:
```html
<script src="xlsx.full.min.js"></script>
```
The library can also be imported directly from JSX code with:
```js
import XLSX from 'xlsx';
```
This demo shows a simple React component transpiled in the browser using Babel
standalone library. Since there is no standard React table model, this demo
settles on the array of arrays approach.
Other scripts in this demo show:
- server-rendered React component (with `next.js`)
- `react-native` deployment for iOS and android
## How to run
Run `make react` to run the browser demo for React, or run `make next` to run
the server-rendered demo using `next.js`.
## Internal State
The simplest state representation is an array of arrays. To avoid having the
table component depend on the library, the column labels are precomputed. The
state in this demo is shaped like the following object:
```js
{
2017-09-24 23:40:09 +00:00
cols: [{ name: "A", key: 0 }, { name: "B", key: 1 }, { name: "C", key: 2 }],
data: [
[ "id", "name", "value" ],
[ 1, "sheetjs", 7262 ],
[ 2, "js-xlsx", 6969 ]
]
}
```
2017-09-24 23:40:09 +00:00
`sheet_to_json` and `aoa_to_sheet` utility functions can convert between arrays
of arrays and worksheets:
```js
/* convert from workbook to array of arrays */
var first_worksheet = workbook.Sheets[workbook.SheetNames[0]];
var data = XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(first_worksheet, {header:1});
/* convert from array of arrays to workbook */
var worksheet = XLSX.utils.aoa_to_sheet(data);
var new_workbook = XLSX.utils.book_new();
XLSX.utils.book_append_sheet(new_workbook, worksheet, "SheetJS");
```
The column objects can be generated with the `encode_col` utility function:
```js
function make_cols(refstr/*:string*/) {
var o = [];
var range = XLSX.utils.decode_range(refstr);
for(var i = 0; i <= range.e.c; ++i) {
o.push({name: XLSX.utils.encode_col(i), key:i});
}
return o;
}
```
## React Native

Reproducing the full project is straightforward:
```bash
$ make native # build the project
$ make ios # build and run the iOS demo
$ make android # build and run the android demo
```
The app will prompt before reading and after writing data. The printed location
depends on the environment:
- android: path in the device filesystem
- iOS simulator: local path to file
- iOS device: a path accessible from iTunes App Documents view

Components used in the demo:
- [`react-native-table-component`](https://npm.im/react-native-table-component)
- [`react-native-file-access`](https://npm.im/react-native-file-access)
2017-09-24 23:40:09 +00:00
React Native does not provide a native component for reading and writing files.
The sample script <`react-native.js`> uses `react-native-file-access` and has
notes for integrations with `react-native-fetch-blob` and `react-native-fs`.

Note: for real app deployments, the `UIFileSharingEnabled` flag must be manually
set in the iOS project `Info.plist` file.

#### Server-Rendered React Components with Next.js
The demo uses the same component code as the in-browser version, but the build
step adds a small header that imports the library. The import is not needed in
deployments that use script tags to include the library.
