# pyexcel-export - Keep optimal formatting when exported to xlsx format
[](https://travis-ci.org/patarapolw/pyexcel-export)
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/patarapolw/pyexcel-export)
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyexcel_export/)
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyexcel_export/)
[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyexcel_export/)
pyexcel-export is a wrapper around [pyexcel](https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel), [pyexcel-xlsx](https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel-xlsx) and [openpyxl](https://bitbucket.org/openpyxl/openpyxl) to read formatting (stylesheets) and update pre-existing files without destroying the stylesheets.
pyexcel-export also introduces two new exporting format, `*.yaml` and `*.pyexcel.json`, which is based on [NoIndentEncoder](https://stackoverflow.com/a/25935321/9023855). This allows you to edit the spreadsheet in you favorite text editor without being frustrated by automatically collapsed cells in Excel.
## Known constraints
The "stylesheets" exported from Excel is in a very long base64 encoded format when exported to `*.json` or `*.pyexcel.json`, so exporting such to `*.json` is disabled by default.
As stylesheets copying works by [`openpyxl.worksheet.copier.WorksheetCopy`](https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/2.5/_modules/openpyxl/worksheet/copier.html), it may work only on values, styles, dimensions, and merged cells, but charts might not be supported.
## Installation
You can install pyexcel-export via pip:
```commandline
$ pip install pyexcel-export
```
or clone it and install it.
## Usage
For more documentation, see https://github.com/patarapolw/pyexcel-export/tree/master/docs
### Read \*.pyexcel.json
```python
>>> from pyexcel_export import get_data
>>> from collections import OrderedDict
>>> data, meta = get_data('test.yaml') # *.pyexcel.json is also possible.
>>> data
OrderedDict([('test', [['id', 'English', 'Pinyin', 'Hanzi', 'Audio', 'Tags'], [1419644212689, 'Hello!', 'Nǐ hǎo!', '你好！', '[sound:tmp1cctcn.mp3]', ''], [1419644212690, 'What are you saying?', 'Nǐ shuō shénme?', '你说什么？', '[sound:tmp4tzxbu.mp3]', ''], [1419644212691, 'What did you do?', 'nǐ zuò le shénme ?', '你做了什么？', '[sound:333012.mp3]', '']])])
>>> meta
Meta([
('created', '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194'),
('modified', '2018-07-16T07:31:26.232350'),
('has_header', True),
('freeze_header', True),
('col_width_fit_param_keys', True),
('col_width_fit_ids', True),
('bool_as_string', True),
('allow_table_hiding', True),
('_styles', <_io.BytesIO object at 0x1065dff10>)
])
>>> meta.matrix
[('created', '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194'), ('modified', '2018-07-15T05:32:52.248192'), ('has_header', True), ('freeze_header', True), ('col_width_fit_param_keys', True), ('col_width_fit_ids', True), ('allow_hidden_tables', True), ('_styles', {"": <_io.BytesIO object at 0x1103d9048>})]
>>> meta.excel_matrix
[('created', '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194'), ('modified', '2018-07-15T05:32:52.248192'), ('has_header', {"": True}), ('freeze_header', {"": True}), ('col_width_fit_param_keys', {"": True}), ('col_width_fit_ids', {"": True}), ('allow_hidden_tables', {"": True}), ('_styles', {"": <_io.BytesIO object at 0x10b56b048>})]
```
### Exporting stylesheets
```python
>>> from pyexcel_export import get_meta
>>> get_meta()
Meta([
('created', '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194'),
('has_header', True),
('freeze_header', True),
('col_width_fit_param_keys', True),
('col_width_fit_ids', True),
('bool_as_string', True),
('allow_table_hiding', True)
])
>>> get_meta('test.xlsx')
Meta([
('created', '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194'),
('modified', '2018-07-16T07:31:26.232350'),
('has_header', True),
('freeze_header', True),
('col_width_fit_param_keys', True),
('col_width_fit_ids', True),
('bool_as_string', True),
('allow_table_hiding', True),
('_styles', <_io.BytesIO object at 0x1065dff10>)
])
```
### Saving files, while preserving the formatting.
```python
>>> from pyexcel_export import get_meta, save_data
>>> from collections import OrderedDict
>>> meta = get_meta('test.xlsx')
>>> data = OrderedDict()
>>> data.update({"Sheet 1": [["header A", "header B", "header C"], [1, 2, 3]]})
>>> save_data("your_file.xlsx", data, meta=meta)
```
### Of course, you can use the ExcelLoader class directly
```python
>>> from pyexcel_export import ExcelLoader
>>> loader = ExcelLoader("test.xlsx")
>>> loader.save("test.xlsx")
```
### \*.yaml format
```yaml
_meta:
- [created, '2018-07-15T05:32:43.976194']
- [modified, '2018-07-16T07:45:53.534165']
- [has_header, true]
- [freeze_header, true]
- [col_width_fit_param_keys, true]
- [col_width_fit_ids, true]
- [bool_as_string, true]
- [allow_table_hiding, true]
test:
- [id, English, Pinyin, Hanzi, Audio, Tags]
- [1419644212689, Hello!, Nǐ hǎo!, 你好！, '[sound:tmp1cctcn.mp3]', '']
- [1419644212690, 'What are you saying?', 'Nǐ shuō shénme?', 你说什么？, '[sound:tmp4tzxbu.mp3]',
'']
- [1419644212691, 'What did you do?', 'nǐ zuò le shénme ?', 你做了什么？, '[sound:333012.mp3]',
'']
```
### \*.pyexcel.json format
```json
{
"_meta": [
["\"created\"", "\"2018-07-12T15:21:25.777499\""],
["\"modified\"", "\"2018-07-15T06:59:22.707162\""],
["\"has_header\"", "true"],
["\"freeze_header\"", "true"],
["\"col_width_fit_param_keys\"", "true"],
["\"col_width_fit_ids\"", "true"]
],
"test": [
["\"id\"", "\"English\"", "\"Pinyin\"", "\"Hanzi\"", "\"Audio\"", "\"Tags\""],
["1419644212689", "\"Hello!\"", "\"Nǐ hǎo!\"", "\"你好！\"", "\"[sound:tmp1cctcn.mp3]\"", "\"\""],
["1419644212690", "\"What are you saying?\"", "\"Nǐ shuō shénme?\"", "\"你说什么？\"", "\"[sound:tmp4tzxbu.mp3]\"", "\"\""],
["1419644212691", "\"What did you do?\"", "\"nǐ zuò le shénme ?\"", "\"你做了什么？\"", "\"[sound:333012.mp3]\"", "\"\""]
]
}
