FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package php-xlsx-fast-editor
php-xlsx-fast-editor
PHP library to make basic but fast read & write operations on existing Excel workbooks.
It handles XLSX/XLSM documents (Microsoft Excel 2007+, Office Open XML Workbook) using fast and simple low-level ZIP & XML manipulations, without requiring any library dependency, while minimising unintended side-effects.
Rationale
If you need advanced manipulation of Excel documents such as working with styles,
check the PhpSpreadsheet library
(previously PHPExcel),
but for simply reading & writing basic values from existing Excel workbooks, PhpSpreadsheet is over an order of magnitude too slow,
and has the risk of breaking some unsupported Excel features such as some notes and charts.
There are also libraries to create new Excel documents from scratch, or for just reading some values, but not any obvious one for editing.
php-xlsx-fast-editor addresses the need of quickly reading & writing & editing existing Excel documents,
while reducing the risk of breaking anything.
Note that to create a new document, you can just provide a blank or template Excel document as input.
Use
Via Composer:
or manually:
Examples
Tips
- ℹ️ Iterators (
$x->rowsIterator(),$row->cellsIterator()) and navigation methods ($cell->getNextCell(), etc.) are much faster than accessing multiple rows or cells by direct access ($x->readString($worksheetId, 'A1'), etc.), by name ($row->getCellOrNull('A')), or by number ($x->getRow($worksheetId, 1)).
Requirements
PHP 8.0+ with ZIP and XML extensions.
Check composer.json for details.
