v1.0.5
871dd12

Docs-only release: adds an MIT LICENSE
file, which was missing from every prior release. No functional changes to the add-in itself —
EurostatAddin-1.0.5.oxt behaves identically to 1.0.4.

Install

Download EurostatAddin-1.0.5.oxt below, then either double-click it to open the Extension
Manager, or:

/path/to/libreoffice/program/unopkg add EurostatAddin-1.0.5.oxt

Usage

=EUROSTATDATA(datasetCode; filters)
  • datasetCode — a Eurostat dataset code, e.g. nama_10_gdp.
  • filters — optional dimension filters as key=value pairs separated by ;, e.g.
    "geo=DE;time=2023;unit=CP_MEUR". Pass "" for no filtering. See the
    filters cheatsheet
    below for syntax, gotchas, reserved parameters, and common dimension keys.

Enter it as an array formula so the whole table spills out: select a range large enough for the
result, type the formula, and confirm with Ctrl+Shift+Enter (recent LibreOffice versions with
dynamic array support will spill automatically from a single cell).

Returns a table: a header row (one column per dimension, plus value), followed by one row per
observation. Errors show as a readable #ERROR: ... cell instead of Err:5xx.

=EUROSTATDATA("nama_10_gdp"; "geo=DE;time=2023;unit=CP_MEUR")
=EUROSTATDATA("une_rt_a"; "geo=FR;time=2023")
=EUROSTATDATA("tec00118"; "geo=DE;sinceTimePeriod=2015")

The last example uses sinceTimePeriod, one of Eurostat's own reserved query parameters (not a
dimension) — useful for pulling a whole year range back in one call. lastTimePeriod works the
same way. Any filter key you pass goes straight into the API query string.

Try it

Download Eurostat-Demo.ods
below — it has several EUROSTATDATA(...) formulas already entered and computed against live
data, so opening it (after installing the add-in above) shows the function working right away.
Same file used since 1.0.1, confirmed working under this release.
