excelx

Convert array struct to XLSX format and Parse XLSX format to array struct with Golang

Install

go get github.com/prongbang/excelx

Define struct for Convert

Add header for mapping in XLSX header and no start with 1 for sort header

type Person struct {
	Name  string `header:"Name" no:"3"`
	Age   int    `header:"Age" no:"1"`
	City  string `header:"City" no:"2"`
	Other string
}

Using for Convert

m := []MyStruct{
    {"John Doe", 25, "New York", "555"},
    {"Jane Doe", 30, "San Francisco", "555"},
    {"Bob Smith", 22, "Chicago", "555"},
}
file, err := excelx.Convert[MyStruct](m)

Save the Excel file to the response writer

err := excelx.ResponseWriter(file, w, "output.xlsx")

Using for Parse

file, _, err := r.FormFile("xlsxfile")
persons, err := excelx.Parse[Person](file)

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"

	"github.com/prongbang/excelx"
)

// Define a sample struct
type Person struct {
	Name  string `header:"Name" no:"3"`
	Age   int    `header:"Age" no:"1"`
	City  string `header:"City" no:"2"`
	Other string
}

func generateExcelHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// Sample data
	persons := []Person{
		{"John Doe", 25, "New York", "555"},
		{"Jane Doe", 30, "San Francisco", "555"},
		{"Bob Smith", 22, "Chicago", "555"},
	}

	// Create a new Excel file
	file, _ := excelx.Convert[Person](persons)

	// Save the Excel file to the response writer
	err := excelx.ResponseWriter(file, w, "output.xlsx")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error writing Excel file to response:", err)
		http.Error(w, "Internal Server Error", http.StatusInternalServerError)
	}
}

func main() {
	http.HandleFunc("/excelx", generateExcelHandler)

	// Start the HTTP server
	fmt.Println("Server listening on :8080...")
	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
