Usage

Create encoder

<?php

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Ang3\Component\Serializer\Encoder\ExcelEncoder;

// Create the encoder with default context
$encoder = new ExcelEncoder($defaultContext = []);

Context parameters:

ExcelEncoder::AS_COLLECTION_KEY (boolean): Load data as collection [default: true]
ExcelEncoder::FLATTENED_HEADERS_SEPARATOR_KEY (string): separator for flattened entries key [default: .]
ExcelEncoder::HEADERS_IN_BOLD_KEY (boolean): put headers in bold (encoding only) [default: true]
ExcelEncoder::HEADERS_HORIZONTAL_ALIGNMENT_KEY (string): put headers in bold (encoding only: left, center or right) [default: center]
ExcelEncoder::COLUMNS_AUTOSIZE_KEY (boolean): column autosize feature (encoding only) [default: true]
ExcelEncoder::COLUMNS_MAXSIZE_KEY (integer): column maxsize feature (encoding only) [default: 50]

Encoding

Accepted formats:

ExcelEncoder::XLS
ExcelEncoder::XLSX

<?php
// Create the encoder...

// Test data
$data = [
  // Array by sheet
  'My sheet' => [
    // Array by rows
    [
      'bool' => false,
      'int' => 1,
      'float' => 1.618,
      'string' => 'Hello',
      'object' => new DateTime('2000-01-01 13:37:00'),
      'array' => [
        'bool' => true,
        'int' => 3,
        'float' => 3.14,
        'string' => 'World',
        'object' => new DateTime('2000-01-01 13:37:00'),
        'array' => [
          'again'
        ]
      ],
    ],
  ]
];

// Encode data with specific format
$xls = $encoder->encode($data, ExcelEncoder::XLSX);

// Put the content in a file with format extension for example
file_put_contents('my_excel_file.xlsx', $xls);

Decoding

Accepted formats:

ExcelEncoder::XLS
ExcelEncoder::XLSX

// Create the encoder...

// Decode data with no specific format
$data = $encoder->decode('my_excel_file.xlsx', ExcelEncoder::XLS);

var_dump($data);

// Output:
// 
// array(1) {
//  ["Sheet_0"] => array(1) { // Name of the sheet
//    [0] => array(15) { // First row
//      ["bool"] => int(0) // First cell
//      ["int"] => int(1)
//      ["float"] => float(1.618)
//      ["string"] => string(5) "Hello"
//      ["object.date"] => string(26) "2000-01-01 13:37:00.000000"
//      ["object.timezone_type"] => int(3)
//      ["object.timezone"] => string(13) "Europe/Berlin"
//      ["array.bool"] => int(1)
//      ["array.int"] => int(3)
//      ["array.float"] => float(3.14)
//      ["array.string"] => string(5) "World"
//      ["array.object.date"] => string(26) "2000-01-01 13:37:00.000000"
//      ["array.object.timezone_type"] => int(3)
//      ["array.object.timezone"] => string(13) "Europe/Berlin"
//      ["array.array.0"] => string(5) "again"
//    }
//  }
// }

Headers

By default, the encoder loads data as collection: the header name is the key of each data. Indeed, the default value of context parameter ExcelEncoder::AS_COLLECTION_KEY is true. To disable this feature, pass the context parameter as false.

$data = $encoder->decode('my_excel_file.xlsx', ExcelEncoder::XLS, [
    ExcelEncoder::AS_COLLECTION_KEY => false
]);

// Output:
// 
// array(1) {
//  ["Sheet_0"] => array(1) { // Name of the sheet
//    [0] => array(15) { // Headers row
//      0 => "bool" // First cell
//      1 => "int"
//      2 => "float"
//      3 => "string"
//      4 => "object.date"
//      5 => "object.timezone_type"
//      6 => "object.timezone"
//      7 => "array.bool"
//      8 => "array.int"
//      9 => "array.float"
//      10 => "array.string"
//      11 => "array.object.date"
//      12 => "array.object.timezone_type"
//      13 => "array.object.timezone"
//      14 => "array.array.0"
//    },
//    [1] => array(15) { // First data row
//      [0] => int(0) // First cell
//      [1] => int(1)
//      [2] => float(1.618)
//      [3] => string(5) "Hello"
//      [4] => string(26) "2000-01-01 13:37:00.000000"
//      [5] => int(3)
//      [6] => string(13) "Europe/Berlin"
//      [7] => int(1)
//      [8] => int(3)
//      [9] => float(3.14)
//      [10] => string(5) "World"
//      [11] => string(26) "2000-01-01 13:37:00.000000"
//      [12] => int(3)
//      [13] => string(13) "Europe/Berlin"
//      [14] => string(5) "again"
//    }
//  }
// }

Symfony integration

The encoder implements the interfaces of the Serializer component. To enable this encoder, you could just configure it as service by adding the contents below into the file config/services.yaml:

# config/services.yaml
services:
  # ...
  Ang3\Component\Serializer\Encoder\ExcelEncoder: ~

Run tests

$ git clone https://github.com/Ang3/php-excel-encoder.git

$ composer install

$ vendor/bin/simple-phpunit

That's it!
