PicoXLSX4j is a small Java library to create XLSX files (Microsoft Excel 2007 or newer) in an easy and native way. It is a direct port of [PicoXLSX for C#](https://github.com/rabanti-github/PicoXLSX)
* No need for an installation of Microsoft Office
* No need for Office interop/DCOM or other bridging libraries
* No need for 3rd party libraries
* Pure usage of standard JRE
**Please have a look at the successor library [NanoXLSX4j](https://github.com/rabanti-github/NanoXLSX4j) for reader support.**
Project website: [https://picoxlsx.rabanti.ch](https://picoxlsx.rabanti.ch)
See the **[Change Log](https://github.com/rabanti-github/PicoXLSX4j/blob/master/Changelog.md)** for recent updates.
## What's new in version 2.x
* Changed package structure to ch.rabanti.picoxlsx4j
* Added Maven support (available in Maven Central under ch.rabanti.picoxlsx4j)
* Complete replacement of the old style handling
* Added appending of styles for an easier composition of complex styles
* Added more options to assign styles to cells
* Added Shortener (property WS) to reduce the code overhead
* Added static methods for the most important formulas (round, floor, ceil, min, max, average, median, sum, vlookup)
* Added Save option to save the XLSX file as stream
* Added an option for sanitizing of worksheet names
* Replaced specific exception classes with general exceptions (e.g. StyleException, FormatException or WorksheetException)
* Added functions to retrieve stored data and the current cell address
* Many internal optimizations and additional documentation
## Requirements
PicoXLSX4j was initially created with Java 8 and currently build with OpenJDK 11
The only requirement for development is an up-to-date Java environment (OpenJDK 11 or higher recommended)
## Installation
### As JAR
Simply place the PicoXLSX4j jar file (e.g. **picoxlsx4j-2.6.0.jar**) into the lib folder of your project and create a library reference to it in your IDE.
### As source files
Place all .java files from the PicoXLSX4j source folder into your project. The folder structure defines the packages. Please use refactoring if you want to relocate the files.
### Maven
Add the following information to your POM file within the `````` tag:
```xml
ch.rabanti
picoxlsx4j
2.6.0
```
**Important:** The version number may change.
Please see the version number of Maven Central at the top of the README (maven-central badge) or check the [Change Log](https://github.com/rabanti-github/PicoXLSX4j/blob/master/Changelog.md) for the most recent version. The keywords ```LATEST``` and ```RELEASE``` are only valid in Maven 2, not 3 and newer.
## Usage
### Quick Start (shortened syntax)
```java
Workbook workbook = new Workbook("myWorkbook.xlsx", "Sheet1"); // Create new workbook with a worksheet called Sheet1
workbook.WS.value("Some Data"); // Add cell A1
workbook.WS.formula("=A1"); // Add formula to cell B1
workbook.WS.down(); // Go to row 2
workbook.WS.value(new Date(), BasicStyles.Bold()); // Add formatted value to cell A2
try{
workbook.save(); // Save the workbook as myWorkbook.xlsx
} catch (Exception ex) {}
```
### Quick Start (regular syntax)
```java
Workbook workbook = new Workbook("myWorkbook.xlsx", "Sheet1"); // Create new workbook with a worksheet called Sheet1
workbook.getCurrentWorksheet().addNextCell("Some Data"); // Add cell A1
workbook.getCurrentWorksheet().addNextCell(42); // Add cell B1
workbook.getCurrentWorksheet().goToNextRow(); // Go to row 2
workbook.getCurrentWorksheet().addNextCell(new Date()); // Add cell A2
try {
workbook.Save(); // Save the workbook as myWorkbook.xlsx
} catch (Exception ex) {}
```
