No further development will take place.\nIf you're looking for an xlxs parsing library, consider using [xlsxir](https://github.com/jsonkenl/xlsxir)\n\nThis is a library for parsing `.xlsx` files (Open XML format). It is targeted for reading Excel 2000 files into a list of lists.\n\nSample output:\n\n```elixir\n[\n  [\"A1\", \"B1\", \"C1\", \"D1\"],\n  [\"A2\", \"B2\", \"C2\", \"D2\"],\n  [\"A3\", \"B3\", \"C3\", \"D3\"],\n  [\"A4\", \"B4\", \"C4\", \"D4\"],\n  [\"A5\", \"B5\", \"C5\", \"D5\"],\n]\n```\n\n## Installation\n\nYou can add Excellent as a dependency in your `mix.exs` file. Since it only requires Elixir and Erlang there are no other dependencies.\n\n```elixir\ndef deps do\n  [ { :excellent, \"~\u003e 0.0.1\" } ]\nend\n```\n\nIf you aren't using hex, add the a reference to the github repo.\n\n``` elixir\ndef deps do\n  [ { :excellent, github: \"leifg/excellent\" } ]\nend\n```\n\nThen run `mix deps.get` in the shell to fetch and compile the dependencies\n\n## Usage\n\nThe top level funtion takes 2 arguments: the filename and the number of the worksheet you want to parse (zero based).\n\n```elixir\nExcellent.parse('spreadsheet.xlsx', 0)\n\n=\u003e [\n  [\"A1\", \"B1\", \"C1\", \"D1\"],\n  [\"A2\", \"B2\", \"C2\", \"D2\"],\n  [\"A3\", \"B3\", \"C3\", \"D3\"],\n  [\"A4\", \"B4\", \"C4\", \"D4\"],\n  [\"A5\", \"B5\", \"C5\", \"D5\"],\n]\n```\n\nThere is also a function to return the names of the worksheets as a tuple:\n\n```elixir\nExcellent.worksheet_names('spreadsheet.xlsx')\n\n=\u003e {\"Worksheet 1\", \"Worksheet 2\"}\n```\n\n## TODO\n\n  - Read worksheets as stream from ZIP archive\n  - Implement different data types (curently only strings and numbers are supported)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fleifg%2Fexcellent","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fleifg%2Fexcellent","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fleifg%2Fexcellent/lists"}
