### Optional Modules
|
2014-04-23 01:37:08 +00:00

|
|
|

|
|
|
The node version automatically requires modules for additional features. Some
|
2014-05-01 00:24:27 +00:00
|
|
|
of these modules are rather large in size and are only needed in special
|
|
|
|
circumstances, so they do not ship with the core. For browser use, they must
|
|
|
|
be included directly:
|
2014-04-23 01:37:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2016-12-31 08:20:45 +00:00
|
|
|
```html
|
2017-02-03 20:50:45 +00:00
|
|
|
<!-- international support from js-codepage -->
|
2016-12-31 08:20:45 +00:00
|
|
|
<script src="dist/cpexcel.js"></script>
|
|
|
|
```
|
2014-04-23 01:37:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An appropriate version for each dependency is included in the dist/ directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The complete single-file version is generated at `dist/xlsx.full.min.js`
|
|
|
|
|
2017-03-13 06:46:37 +00:00
|
|
|
Webpack and browserify builds include optional modules by default. Webpack can
|
|
|
|
be configured to remove support with `resolve.alias`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
|
/* uncomment the lines below to remove support */
|
|
|
|
resolve: {
|
|
|
|
alias: { "./dist/cpexcel.js": "" } // <-- omit international support
|
|
|
|
}
|
|

### ECMAScript 5 Compatibility

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since xlsx.js uses ES5 functions like `Array#forEach`, older browsers require
|
|
|
|
[Polyfills](http://git.io/QVh77g). This repo and the gh-pages branch include
|
|
|
|
[a shim](https://github.com/SheetJS/js-xlsx/blob/master/shim.js)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use the shim, add the shim before the script tag that loads xlsx.js:
|
|
|
|
|
2016-12-31 08:20:45 +00:00
|
|
|
```html
|
|
|
|
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/shim.js"></script>
|
|
|
|
```

## Philosophy

<summary><b>Philosophy</b> (click to show)</summary>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Prior to SheetJS, APIs for processing spreadsheet files were format-specific.
|
|
|
|
Third-party libraries either supported one format, or they involved a separate
|
|
|
|
set of classes for each supported file type. Even though XLSB was introduced in
|
|
|
|
Excel 2007, nothing outside of SheetJS or Excel supported the format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To promote a format-agnostic view, js-xlsx starts from a pure-JS representation
|
|
|
|
that we call the ["Common Spreadsheet Format"](#common-spreadsheet-format).
|
|
|
|
Emphasizing a uniform object representation enables radical features like format
|
|
|
|
conversion (e.g. reading an XLSX template and saving as XLS) and circumvents the
|
|
|
|
"class trap". By abstracting the complexities of the various formats, tools
|
|
|
|
need not worry about the specific file type!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A simple object representation combined with careful coding practices enables
|
|
|
|
use cases in older browsers and in alternative environments like ExtendScript
|
|
|
|
and Web Workers. It is always tempting to use the latest and greatest features,
|
|
|
|
but they tend to require the latest versions of browsers, limiting usability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Utility functions capture common use cases like generating JS objects or HTML.
|
|
|
|
Most simple operations should only require a few lines of code. More complex
|
|
|
|
operations generally should be straightforward to implement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Excel pushes the XLSX format as default starting in Excel 2007. However, there
|
|
|
|
are other formats with more appealing properties. For example, the XLSB format
|
|
|
|
is spiritually similar to XLSX but files often tend up taking less than half the
|
|
|
|
space and open much faster! Even though an XLSX writer is available, other
|
|
|
|
format writers are available so users can take advantage of the unique
|
|
|
|
characteristics of each format.

On OSX you can get the base64 encoding with:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|

|
$ <target_file base64 | pbcopy
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows XP and up you can get the base64 encoding using `certutil`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```cmd
|
|
|
|
> certutil -encode target_file target_file.b64
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(note: You have to open the file and remove the header and footer lines)

|
|
|
The most common and interesting formats (XLS, XLSX/M, XLSB, ODS) are ultimately
|
|
|
|
ZIP or CFB containers of files. Neither format puts the directory structure at
|
|
|
|
the beginning of the file: ZIP files place the Central Directory records at the
|
|
|
|
end of the logical file, while CFB files can place the FAT structure anywhere in
|
|
|
|
the file! As a result, to properly handle these formats, a streaming function
|
|
|
|
would have to buffer the entire file before commencing. That belies the
|
2017-06-10 01:47:42 +00:00
|
|
|
expectations of streaming, so we do not provide any streaming read API.

When dealing with Readable Streams, the easiest approach is to buffer the stream
|
|
|
|
and process the whole thing at the end. This can be done with a temporary file
|
|
|
|
or by explicitly concatenating the stream:

This example uses [`XLSX.utils.aoa_to_sheet`](#array-of-arrays-input) to make a

worksheet and appends the new worksheet to the workbook:
|
|
|
|
|

```js

var new_ws_name = "SheetJS";

[ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]

The node version installs a command line tool `xlsx` which can read spreadsheet
|
2014-05-28 18:31:33 +00:00
|
|
|
files and output the contents in various formats. The source is available at
|
|

|
`xlsx.njs` in the bin directory.

|
|
|
- `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_csv` generates CSV

|
|
|
- `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_html` generates HTML
|
2014-05-28 18:31:33 +00:00
|
|
|
- `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json` generates an array of objects
|
2014-07-28 13:22:32 +00:00
|
|
|
- `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_formulae` generates a list of formulae

## Writing Workbooks
|
|
|
|
|
2014-10-26 05:26:18 +00:00
|
|
|
For writing, the first step is to generate output data. The helper functions
|
|
|
|
`write` and `writeFile` will produce the data in various formats suitable for
|
|
|
|
dissemination. The second step is to actual share the data with the end point.
|
|
|
|
Assuming `workbook` is a workbook object:

### Streaming Write
|
|
|
|
|
2017-04-16 07:31:21 +00:00
|
|
|
The streaming write functions are available in the `XLSX.stream` object. They
|
2017-06-10 01:47:42 +00:00
|
|
|
take the same arguments as the normal write functions but return a Readable
|
|
|
|
Stream. They are only exposed in NodeJS.

|
|
|
|
2017-04-16 07:31:21 +00:00
|
|
|
- `XLSX.stream.to_csv` is the streaming version of `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_csv`.
|
2017-05-16 17:45:35 +00:00
|
|
|
- `XLSX.stream.to_html` is the streaming version of `XLSX.utils.sheet_to_html`.

## Interface
|
|
|
|
|
2015-04-02 20:32:22 +00:00
|
|
|
`XLSX` is the exposed variable in the browser and the exported node variable
|
2014-05-16 00:33:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2014-07-28 13:22:32 +00:00
|
|
|
`XLSX.version` is the version of the library (added by the build script).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`XLSX.SSF` is an embedded version of the [format library](http://git.io/ssf).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Parsing functions
|
2014-05-16 00:33:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`XLSX.read(data, read_opts)` attempts to parse `data`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`XLSX.readFile(filename, read_opts)` attempts to read `filename` and parse.
|
|
|
|
|
2017-03-10 23:39:17 +00:00
|
|
|
Parse options are described in the [Parsing Options](#parsing-options) section.
|
|
|
|
|

### Writing functions
|
|
|
|
|
2014-05-16 00:33:34 +00:00
|
|
|
`XLSX.write(wb, write_opts)` attempts to write the workbook `wb`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`XLSX.writeFile(wb, filename, write_opts)` attempts to write `wb` to `filename`
|
|
|
|
|
2017-03-25 01:36:40 +00:00
|
|
|
`XLSX.writeFileAsync(filename, wb, o, cb)` attempts to write `wb` to `filename`.
|
|
|
|
If `o` is omitted, the writer will use the third argument as the callback.
|
|
|
|
|
2017-04-16 07:31:21 +00:00
|
|
|
`XLSX.stream` contains a set of streaming write functions.
|
|
|
|
|
2017-03-10 23:39:17 +00:00
|
|
