NAME
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser - Rewrite an existing Excel file. SYNOPSIS
Say we start with an Excel file that looks like this: ----------------------------------------------------- | | A | B | C | ----------------------------------------------------- | 1 | Hello | ... | ... | ... | 2 | World | ... | ... | ... | 3 | *Bold text* | ... | ... | ... | 4 | ... | ... | ... | ... | 5 | ... | ... | ... | ... Then we process it with the following program: #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser; # Open an existing file with SaveParser my $parser = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser->new(); my $template = $parser->Parse('template.xls'); # Get the first worksheet. my $worksheet = $template->worksheet(0); my $row = 0; my $col = 0; # Overwrite the string in cell A1 $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col, 'New string' ); # Add a new string in cell B1 $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 1, 'Newer' ); # Add a new string in cell C1 with the format from cell A3. my $cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row + 2, $col ); my $format_number = $cell->{FormatNo}; $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 2, 'Newest', $format_number ); # Write over the existing file or write a new file. $template->SaveAs('newfile.xls'); We should now have an Excel file that looks like this: ----------------------------------------------------- | | A | B | C | ----------------------------------------------------- | 1 | New string | Newer | *Newest* | ... | 2 | World | ... | ... | ... | 3 | *Bold text* | ... | ... | ... | 4 | ... | ... | ... | ... | 5 | ... | ... | ... | ... DESCRIPTION
The "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser" module rewrite an existing Excel file by reading it with "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel" and rewriting it with "Spreadsheet::WriteExcel". METHODS
Parser new() $parse = new Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser(); Constructor. Parse() $workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName); $workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName , $formatter); Returns a "Workbook" object. If an error occurs, returns undef. The optional $formatter is a Formatter Class to format the value of cells. Workbook The "Parse()" method returns a "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Workbook" object. This is a subclass of the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Workbook and has the following methods: worksheets() Returns an array of "Worksheet" objects. This was most commonly used to iterate over the worksheets in a workbook: for my $worksheet ( $workbook->worksheets() ) { ... } worksheet() The "worksheet()" method returns a single "Worksheet" object using either its name or index: $worksheet = $workbook->worksheet('Sheet1'); $worksheet = $workbook->worksheet(0); Returns "undef" if the sheet name or index doesn't exist. AddWorksheet() $workbook = $workbook->AddWorksheet($name, %properties); Create a new Worksheet object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet". The %properties hash contains the properties of new Worksheet. AddFont $workbook = $workbook->AddFont(%properties); Create new Font object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Font". The %properties hash contains the properties of new Font. AddFormat $workbook = $workbook->AddFormat(%properties); The %properties hash contains the properties of new Font. Worksheet Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Worksheet Worksheet is a subclass of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet. And has these methods : The "Worksbook::worksheet()" method returns a "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Worksheet" object. This is a subclass of the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet and has the following methods: AddCell $workbook = $worksheet->AddCell($row, $col, $value, $format [$encoding]); Create new Cell object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Cell". The $format parameter is the format number rather than a full format object. To specify just same as another cell, you can set it like below: $row = 0; $col = 0; $worksheet = $template->worksheet(0); $cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row, $col ); $format_number = $cell->{FormatNo}; $worksheet->AddCell($row +1, $coll, 'New data', $format_number); TODO
Please note that this module is currently (versions 0.50-0.60) undergoing a major restructuring and rewriting. Known Problems You can only rewrite the features that Spreadsheet::WriteExcel supports so macros, graphs and some other features in the original Excel file will be lost. Also, formulas aren't rewritten, only the result of a formula is written. Only last print area will remain. (Others will be removed) AUTHOR
