Quick Start

import { SharedStrings, Sheet, build } from '@oniryk/xlsx';

// Create instances for string management and worksheet
const strings = new SharedStrings();
const sheet = new Sheet(strings);

// Add headers
sheet.addRow(['Name', 'Age', 'Date']);

// Add data

const buffer = await build(sheet, strings);

// Save to file or send as response
await fs.writeFile('output.xlsx', buffer);

API Reference

SharedStrings

Manages string deduplication across the workbook:

const strings = new SharedStrings();

Methods:

• add(str: string): number - Adds a string to the shared strings table
• size(): number - Gets the total number of unique strings
• destroy(): void - Cleans up resources

Sheet

Handles worksheet data and formatting:

const sheet = new Sheet(sharedStrings);

Methods:

• addRow(row: Row): void - Adds a single row
• addRows(rows: Row[]): void - Adds multiple rows
• rowsCount(): number - Gets total row count
• setColumWidth(index: number, width: number): void - Sets width for a single column
• setColumWidth(sizes: [number, number][]): void - Sets widths for multiple columns

Types

type Cell = string | number | Date | null;
type Row = Cell[];

Column Width Configuration

You can customize column widths either individually or in bulk:

// Set single column width
sheet.setColumWidth(0, 15); // Set column A to width 15

// Set multiple column widths
sheet.setColumWidth([
  [0, 15], // Column A: width 15
  [1, 20], // Column B: width 20
  [2, 10]  // Column C: width 10
]);

Date Handling

Dates are automatically converted to Excel's internal format and styled appropriately:

sheet.addRow(['Date', new Date('2024-01-31')]);

Limitations

Current version limitations:

1. Single Sheet Only: The library currently only supports generating Excel files with a single worksheet. Multi-sheet support is planned for future releases.
2. Basic Styling: Only basic cell formatting is supported (dates and numbers). Advanced styling features like colors, borders, and fonts are not yet implemented.
