With the availability of JS engines and the success of server-side runtimes, it
|
||
|
is natural to want command-line tools for various workflows.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This demo covers a number of strategies for building standalone processors. The
|
||
|
goal is to generate CSV output from an arbitrary spreadsheet file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Deno
|
||
|
|
||
|
`deno compile` generates a standalone executable that includes the entire JS
|
||
|
runtime as well as user JS code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When compiling, the `--allow-read` option must be specified to allow the script
|
||
|
to read files from the filesystem with `Deno.readFileSync`.
|
||
|
|
||

|
||
|
|
||
|
1) Save the following script to `sheet2csv.ts`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```ts title="sheet2csv.ts"
|
||
|
/*! sheetjs (C) 2013-present SheetJS -- http://sheetjs.com */
|
||
|
// @deno-types="https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/types/index.d.ts"
|
||
|
import * as XLSX from 'https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/xlsx.mjs';
|
||
|
import * as cptable from 'https://cdn.sheetjs.com/xlsx-latest/package/dist/cpexcel.full.mjs';
|
||
|
XLSX.set_cptable(cptable);
|
||
|
|
||
|
/* Read and parse workbook */
|
||
|
const filename = Deno.args[0];
|
||
|
if(!filename) {
|
||
|
console.error("usage: sheet2csv <filename> [sheetname]");
|
||
|
Deno.exit(1);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
const workbook = XLSX.readFile(filename);
|
||
|
|
||
|
/* Find worksheet */
|
||
|
const sheetname = Deno.args[1] || workbook.SheetNames[0];
|
||
|
if(!workbook.Sheets[sheetname]) {
|
||
|
console.error(`error: workbook missing sheet ${sheetname}`);
|
||
|
Deno.exit(1);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
/* Generate CSV and print to stdout */
|
||
|
console.log(XLSX.utils.sheet_to_csv(workbook.Sheets[sheetname]));
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
2) Build `sheet2csv` with `deno compile`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
deno compile -r --allow-read sheet2csv.ts
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
`sheet2csv` is a generated executable that you can run.
