NAME

Spreadsheet::XLSX - Perl extension for reading MS Excel 2007 files;


SYNOPSIS

    use Text::Iconv;
    my $converter = Text::Iconv->new("utf-8", "windows-1251");

    # Text::Iconv is not really required.
    # This can be any object with the convert method. Or nothing.

    use Spreadsheet::XLSX;

    my $excel = Spreadsheet::XLSX->new('test.xlsx', $converter);

    foreach my $sheet (@{$excel->{Worksheet}}) {

        printf("Sheet: %s\n", $sheet->{Name});

        $sheet->{MaxRow} ||= $sheet->{MinRow};

        foreach my $row ($sheet->{MinRow} .. $sheet->{MaxRow}) {

            $sheet->{MaxCol} ||= $sheet->{MinCol};

            foreach my $col ($sheet->{MinCol} ..  $sheet->{MaxCol}) {

                my $cell = $sheet->{Cells}[$row][$col];

                if ($cell) {
                    printf("( %s , %s ) => %s\n", $row, $col, $cell->{Val});
                }

            }

        }

    }


DESCRIPTION

This module is a (quick and dirty) emulation of the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel manpage for Excel 2007 (.xlsx) file format. It supports styles and many of Excel's quirks, but not all. It populates the classes from the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel manpage for interoperability; including Workbook, Worksheet, and Cell.


SEE ALSO

Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX
This module has some serious issues with the way it uses regexs for parsing the XML. I would strongly encourage switching to the Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX manpage which takes a more reliable approach.

Text::CSV_XS, Text::CSV_PP
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
Spreadsheet::ReadSXC
Spreadsheet::BasicRead
for xlscat likewise functionality (Excel only)

Spreadsheet::ConvertAA
for an alternative set of cell2cr() / cr2cell() pair

Spreadsheet::Perl
offers a Pure Perl implementation of a spreadsheet engine. Users that want this format to be supported in the Spreadsheet::Read manpage are hereby motivated to offer patches. It's not high on my todo-list.

xls2csv
https://metacpan.org/release/KEN/xls2csv-1.07 offers an alternative for my xlscat -c, in the xls2csv tool, but this tool focusses on character encoding transparency, and requires some other modules.

Spreadsheet::Read
read the data from a spreadsheet (interface module)
