excel can so easily export and import tab-separated data that there's little point installing 19,000 perl modules and writing 3,000 lines of code just to write excel files.
Excel files are more complicated in several ways, too. You have to start worrying about multiple worksheets for instance, formulas, merged columns, and all of that. And the .xlsx files are particularly obnoxious.

excel::writer::xlsx::chart::line
Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart::Line(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart::Line(3pm)
NAME
Line - A class for writing Excel Line charts.
SYNOPSIS
To create a simple Excel file with a Line chart using Excel::Writer::XLSX:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Excel::Writer::XLSX;
my $workbook = Excel::Writer::XLSX->new( 'chart.xlsx' );
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line' );
# Configure the chart.
$chart->add_series(
categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$7',
values => '=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7',
);
# Add the worksheet data the chart refers to.
my $data = [
[ 'Category', 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ],
[ 'Value', 1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 5 ],
];
$worksheet->write( 'A1', $data );
__END__
DESCRIPTION
This module implements Line charts for Excel::Writer::XLSX. The chart object is created via the Workbook "add_chart()" method:
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line' );
Once the object is created it can be configured via the following methods that are common to all chart classes:
$chart->add_series();
$chart->set_x_axis();
$chart->set_y_axis();
$chart->set_title();
These methods are explained in detail in Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart. Class specific methods or settings, if any, are explained below.
Line Chart Methods
There aren't currently any line chart specific methods. See the TODO section of Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart.
EXAMPLE
Here is a complete example that demonstrates most of the available features when creating a chart.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Excel::Writer::XLSX;
my $workbook = Excel::Writer::XLSX->new( 'chart_line.xlsx' );
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
my $bold = $workbook->add_format( bold => 1 );
# Add the worksheet data that the charts will refer to.
my $headings = [ 'Number', 'Batch 1', 'Batch 2' ];
my $data = [
[ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ],
[ 10, 40, 50, 20, 10, 50 ],
[ 30, 60, 70, 50, 40, 30 ],
];
$worksheet->write( 'A1', $headings, $bold );
$worksheet->write( 'A2', $data );
# Create a new chart object. In this case an embedded chart.
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line', embedded => 1 );
# Configure the first series.
$chart->add_series(
name => '=Sheet1!$B$1',
categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$7',
values => '=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7',
);
# Configure second series. Note alternative use of array ref to define
# ranges: [ $sheetname, $row_start, $row_end, $col_start, $col_end ].
$chart->add_series(
name => '=Sheet1!$C$1',
categories => [ 'Sheet1', 1, 6, 0, 0 ],
values => [ 'Sheet1', 1, 6, 2, 2 ],
);
# Add a chart title and some axis labels.
$chart->set_title ( name => 'Results of sample analysis' );
$chart->set_x_axis( name => 'Test number' );
$chart->set_y_axis( name => 'Sample length (mm)' );
# Set an Excel chart style. Colors with white outline and shadow.
$chart->set_style( 10 );
# Insert the chart into the worksheet (with an offset).
$worksheet->insert_chart( 'D2', $chart, 25, 10 );
