Sheet Best Javascript Template Library

Connect Google Sheets to your HTML, through a REST API powered by Sheet Best.

With the Sheet Best JS Template Library you'll be able to:

• Use SpreadSheet data to display data on your HTML template
• Insert data from a HTML <form> to a SpreadSheet

Usage

This project requires you to setup a Google Sheet API at Sheet Best. When you get yours get back here (it looks like this: https://sheet.best/api/sheet/cf969697-682a-40e3-bad4-d54803eeeacf). We will use it on the next steps.

Add this snippet to your HTML page:

<script src="https://cdn.sheet.best/sheet-best-templates.min.js"></script>

Then follow the instructions on for the operation that you want to do:

Display Data

To display data you just need to add data-sheet-best attribute to your HTML tag:

<div data-sheet-best="https://sheet.best/api/sheet/cf969697-682a-40e3-bad4-d54803eeeacf"></div>

Then you just need to use {{ }} templates, they will be replaced by the content on your SpreadSheet API

<div data-sheet-best="https://sheet.best/api/sheet/cf969697-682a-40e3-bad4-d54803eeeacf">
  <div>
    <h2>{{ code }}</h2>
    <div>
      <span>Price: <b>{{ price }}</b></span>
      <span>High: <b>{{ high }}</b></span>
      <span>Low: <b>{{ low }}</b></span>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

A Google Sheet like this:

Will generate a HTML code like this:

<div data-sheet-best="https://sheet.best/api/sheet/cf969697-682a-40e3-bad4-d54803eeeacf">
  <div>
    <h2>COST</h2>
    <div>
      <span>Price: <b>273.59</b></span>
      <span>High: <b>275.36</b></span>
      <span>Low: <b>272.76</b></span>
    </div>
  </div>

  <!-- ...and so on, until... -->

  <div>
    <h2>TSLA</h2>
    <div>
      <span>Price: <b>229.31</b></span>
      <span>High: <b>231.5</b></span>
      <span>Low: <b>228.03</b></span>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Inserting Data

To display data you just need to add data-sheet-best attribute to a <form> tag. If your spreadsheet is setup like this:

<form data-sheet-best="https://sheet.best/api/sheet/cf969697-682a-40e3-bad4-d54803eeeacf">
  <input type="text" name="name"/>
  <input type="text" name="email"/>
  <button type="submit">submit</button>
</form>

We will automatically add the information on your SpreadSheet once the user submits the content:
