#ExcelExport
ExcelExport is a simple, fluent API to export data to Excel spreadsheets. ExcelExport uses OleDb to generate Excel files (Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB for Excel 2007+ formats, and Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB for Excel 2003 .xls files)
This library can also be used to generate Excel files in ASP.Net MVC actions; use this simple ActionResult class.
##Sample usage
new ExcelExport()
.AddSheet("Sample Names", new[] {
new { Name = "Bill Stewart", ZipCode = "00347", Birth_Date = new DateTime(1987, 6, 5) },
new { Name = "Russ Porter", ZipCode = "04257", Birth_Date = new DateTime(1956, 7, 8) },
new { Name = "Rodrick Rivers", ZipCode = "19867", Birth_Date = new DateTime(1956, 7, 8) }
})
.AddSheet(
"LINQ Query Sample",
ordersQuery.Select(o => new {
Product_Name = o.Product.Name,
o.Quantity,
o.OrderDate
}
)
.AddSheet(someDataSet.Tables[0])
.AddSheet(
"Classic ADO.Net Sample",
someCommand.ExecuteReader()
)
.ExportTo(Path.Combine(
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments),
"Sample.xlsx"
));##Notes
-
When exporting anonymous types,
_(underscore) characters in property names will be replaced with spaces. -
When exporting ADO.Net DataTables, the sheet name is optional; if omitted, the table's
TableNameproperty will be used instead. -
When exporting ADO.Net DataReaders, the reader must remain open when
ExportTo()is called. When the export is finished, the reader will be closed.
