xlsx-mongo-api
A RESTful API for importing and adding data from XLSX files to MongoDB
## About The Project
`xlsx-mongo-api` is a RESTful API built with Node.js and Express that allows you to import and add data from XLSX files to MongoDB. It serves as a convenient interface for utilizing the `xlsx-mongo` package.
## Features
- Import data from XLSX file to MongoDB
- Add data from XLSX file to existing MongoDB collection
- Dynamic generation of MongoDB schema based on XLSX file headers
- Configurable MongoDB connection URL and collection name
- Support for handling large XLSX files
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Node.js and npm installed on your machine
- MongoDB server up and running
- XLSX files with data to import
### API Endpoints
1. POST /import
- Description: Import data from an XLSX file to MongoDB
- Request Parameters:
1. file (multipart/form-data): XLSX file to import
2. collectionName (optional): Name of the collection to import/add the data to.
If not provided, it will use the filename as the collection name.
- Response: JSON response with a success message or error message
2. POST /add
- Description: Add data from an XLSX file to an existing MongoDB collection
- Request Parameters:
1. file (multipart/form-data): XLSX file to import
2. collectionName (optional): Name of the collection to import/add the data to.
If not provided, it will use the filename as the collection name.
- Response: JSON response with a success message or error message
### Usage
1. Start the server by running npm start.
2. Send a POST request to https://xlsxmongoapi.kurizu.repl.co/import with the following parameters:
1. file: The XLSX file to import.
2. collectionName (optional): The name of the collection to import/add the data to.
If not provided, it will use the filename as the collection name.
3. Create a `.env` file in the root directory of the project and add the following environment variables:
```shell
MONGO_URL=
MONGO_COLLECTION=
```
Example using Axios:
```javascript
const axios = require('axios');
const FormData = require('form-data');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const filePath = path.join('Test.xlsx');
require('dotenv').config();
// Import data from XLSX file to MongoDB
const importFile = async () => {
try {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fs.createReadStream('Test.xlsx'));
formData.append('mongoURL', process.env.MONGO_URL);
formData.append('collectionName', process.env.MONGO_COLLECTION);
const response = await axios.post('https://xlsxmongoapi.kurizu.repl.co/import', formData, {
headers: formData.getHeaders(),
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.response.data);
}
};
importFile();
// Add data from XLSX file to existing MongoDB collection
const addData = async () => {
try {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fs.createReadStream('Test.xlsx'));
formData.append('path', filePath);
formData.append('collectionName', 'test2');
formData.append('mongoURL', process.env.MONGO_URL);
const response = await axios.post('https://xlsxmongoapi.kurizu.repl.co/add', formData, {
headers: formData.getHeaders(),
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.response.data);
}
};
addData();
```
Example using RapidAPI:
```javascript
const axios = require('axios');
const FormData = require('form-data');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const filePath = path.join('Test.xlsx');
require('dotenv').config();
// Import data from XLSX file to MongoDB
const importFile = async () => {
try {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fs.createReadStream('Test.xlsx'));
formData.append('mongoURL', process.env.MONGO_URL);
formData.append('collectionName', process.env.MONGO_COLLECTION);
const response = await axios.post('https://xlsxmongoapi.kurizu.repl.co/import', formData, {
headers: {
'content-type': `multipart/form-data; boundary=${formData._boundary}`,
'x-rapidapi-key': 'YOUR-RAPIDAPI-KEY',
'x-rapidapi-host': 'xlsx-mongo-api.p.rapidapi.com',
useQueryString: true,
},
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.response.data);
}
};
importFile();
// Add data from XLSX file to existing MongoDB collection
const addData = async () => {
try {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fs.createReadStream('Test.xlsx'));
formData.append('path', filePath);
formData.append('collectionName', 'test2');
formData.append('mongoURL', process.env.MONGO_URL);
const response = await axios.post('https://xlsxmongoapi.kurizu.repl.co/add', formData, {
headers: {
'content-type': `multipart/form-data; boundary=${formData._boundary}`,
'x-rapidapi-key': 'YOUR-RAPIDAPI-KEY',
'x-rapidapi-host': 'xlsx-mongo-api.p.rapidapi.com',
useQueryString: true,
},
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.response.data);
}
};
addData();
