Your Star can make MiniExcel better
--- ### Introduction MiniExcel is simple and efficient to avoid OOM's .NET processing Excel tool. At present, most popular frameworks need to load all the data into the memory to facilitate operation, but it will cause memory consumption problems. MiniExcel tries to use algorithm from a stream to reduce the original 1000 MB occupation to a few MB to avoid OOM(out of memory). ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/113086657-ab8bd000-9214-11eb-9563-c970ac1ee35e.png) ### Features - Low memory consumption, avoid OOM (out of memory) and full GC - Support `real-time` operation of each row of data - Support LINQ deferred execution, it can do low-consumption, fast paging and other complex queries - Lightweight, without Microsoft Office installed, no COM+, DLL size is less than 150KB - Easy API style to read/write/fill excel ### Get Started - [Import/Query Excel](#getstart1) - [Export/Create Excel](#getstart2) - [Excel Template](#getstart3) - [Excel Column Name/Index/Ignore Attribute](#getstart4) - [Examples](#getstart5) ### Installation You can install the package [from NuGet](https://www.nuget.org/packages/MiniExcel) ### Release Notes Please Check [Release Notes](docs) ### TODO Please Check [TODO](https://github.com/shps951023/MiniExcel/projects/1?fullscreen=true) ### Performance Benchmarks logic can be found in [MiniExcel.Benchmarks](benchmarks/MiniExcel.Benchmarks/Program.cs) , and test cli ```bash dotnet run -p .\benchmarks\MiniExcel.Benchmarks\ -c Release -f netcoreapp3.1 -- -f * --join ``` Output from the latest run is : ```bash BenchmarkDotNet=v0.12.1, OS=Windows 10.0.19042 Intel Core i7-7700 CPU 3.60GHz (Kaby Lake), 1 CPU, 8 logical and 4 physical cores [Host] : .NET Framework 4.8 (4.8.4341.0), X64 RyuJIT Job-ZYYABG : .NET Framework 4.8 (4.8.4341.0), X64 RyuJIT IterationCount=3 LaunchCount=3 WarmupCount=3 ``` Benchmark History : [Link](https://github.com/shps951023/MiniExcel/issues/276) #### Import/Query Excel Logic : [**Test1,000,000x10.xlsx**](benchmarks/MiniExcel.Benchmarks/Test1%2C000%2C000x10.xlsx) as performance test basic file, 1,000,000 rows * 10 columns "HelloWorld" cells, 23 MB file size | Library | Method | Max Memory Usage | Mean | | ---------------------------- | -------------: | ---------------: | ---------------: | | MiniExcel | 'MiniExcel QueryFirst' | 0.109 MB | 0.0007264 sec | | ExcelDataReader | 'ExcelDataReader QueryFirst' | 15.24 MB | 10.66421 sec | | MiniExcel | 'MiniExcel Query' | 17.3 MB | 14.17933 sec | | ExcelDataReader | 'ExcelDataReader Query' | 17.3 MB | 22.56508 sec | | Epplus | 'Epplus QueryFirst' | 1,452 MB | 18.19801 sec | | Epplus | 'Epplus Query' | 1,451 MB | 23.64747 sec | | OpenXmlSDK | 'OpenXmlSDK Query' | 1,412 MB | 52.00327 sec | | OpenXmlSDK | 'OpenXmlSDK QueryFirst' | 1,413 MB | 52.34865 sec | | ClosedXml | 'ClosedXml QueryFirst' | 2,158 MB | 66.18897 sec | | ClosedXml | 'ClosedXml Query' | 2,184 MB | 191.43412 sec | #### Export/Create Excel Logic : create a total of 10,000,000 "HelloWorld" excel | Library | Method | Max Memory Usage | Mean | | ------------------------ | -------------: | ---------------: | -----------: | | MiniExcel | 'MiniExcel Create Xlsx' | 15 MB | 11.53181 sec | | Epplus | 'Epplus Create Xlsx' | 1,204 MB | 22.50971 sec | | OpenXmlSdk | 'OpenXmlSdk Create Xlsx' | 2,621 MB | 42.47399 sec | | ClosedXml | 'ClosedXml Create Xlsx' | 7,141 MB | 140.93992 sec | ### Excel Query/Import #### 1. Execute a query and map the results to a strongly typed IEnumerable [[Try it]](https://dotnetfiddle.net/w5WD1J) Recommand to use Stream.Query because of better efficiency. ```csharp public class UserAccount { public Guid ID { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public DateTime BoD { get; set; } public int Age { get; set; } public bool VIP { get; set; } public decimal Points { get; set; } } var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path); // or using (var stream = File.OpenRead(path)) var rows = stream.Query(); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/111107423-c8c46b80-8591-11eb-982f-c97a2dafb379.png) #### 2. Execute a query and map it to a list of dynamic objects without using head [[Try it]](https://dotnetfiddle.net/w5WD1J) * dynamic key is `A.B.C.D..` | MiniExcel | 1 | | -------- | -------- | | Github | 2 | ```csharp var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path).ToList(); // or using (var stream = File.OpenRead(path)) { var rows = stream.Query().ToList(); Assert.Equal("MiniExcel", rows[0].A); Assert.Equal(1, rows[0].B); Assert.Equal("Github", rows[1].A); Assert.Equal(2, rows[1].B); } ``` #### 3. Execute a query with first header row [[Try it]](https://dotnetfiddle.net/w5WD1J) note : same column name use last right one Input Excel : | Column1 | Column2 | | -------- | -------- | | MiniExcel | 1 | | Github | 2 | ```csharp var rows = MiniExcel.Query(useHeaderRow:true).ToList(); // or using (var stream = File.OpenRead(path)) { var rows = stream.Query(useHeaderRow:true).ToList(); Assert.Equal("MiniExcel", rows[0].Column1); Assert.Equal(1, rows[0].Column2); Assert.Equal("Github", rows[1].Column1); Assert.Equal(2, rows[1].Column2); } ``` #### 4. Query Support LINQ Extension First/Take/Skip ...etc Query First ```csharp var row = MiniExcel.Query(path).First(); Assert.Equal("HelloWorld", row.A); // or using (var stream = File.OpenRead(path)) { var row = stream.Query().First(); Assert.Equal("HelloWorld", row.A); } ``` Performance between MiniExcel/ExcelDataReader/ClosedXML/EPPlus ![queryfirst](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/111072392-6037a900-8515-11eb-9693-5ce2dad1e460.gif) #### 5. Query by sheet name ```csharp MiniExcel.Query(path, sheetName: "SheetName"); //or stream.Query(sheetName: "SheetName"); ``` #### 6. Query all sheet name and rows ```csharp var sheetNames = MiniExcel.GetSheetNames(path); foreach (var sheetName in sheetNames) { var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path, sheetName: sheetName); } ``` #### 7. Get Columns ```csharp var columns = MiniExcel.GetColumns(path); // e.g result : ["A","B"...] var cnt = columns.Count; // get column count ``` #### 8. Dynamic Query cast row to `IDictionary` ```csharp foreach(IDictionary row in MiniExcel.Query(path)) { //.. } // or var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path).Cast>(); ``` #### 9. Query Excel return DataTable Not recommended, because DataTable will load all data into memory and lose MiniExcel's low memory consumption feature. ```C# var table = MiniExcel.QueryAsDataTable(path, useHeaderRow: true); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/116673475-07917200-a9d6-11eb-947e-a6f68cce58df.png) #### 10. Specify the cell to start reading data ```csharp MiniExcel.Query(path,useHeaderRow:true,startCell:"B3") ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/117260316-8593c400-ae81-11eb-9877-c087b7ac2b01.png) #### 11. Fill Merged Cells Note: The efficiency is slower compared to `not using merge fill` Reason: The OpenXml standard puts mergeCells at the bottom of the file, which leads to the need to foreach the sheetxml twice ```csharp var config = new OpenXmlConfiguration() { FillMergedCells = true }; var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path, configuration: config); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/117973630-3527d500-b35f-11eb-95c3-bde255f8114e.png) support variable length and width multi-row and column filling ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/117973820-6d2f1800-b35f-11eb-88d8-555063938108.png) ### Create/Export Excel 1. Must be a non-abstract type with a public parameterless constructor . 2. MiniExcel support parameter IEnumerable Deferred Execution, If you want to use least memory, please do not call methods such as ToList e.g : ToList or not memory usage ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/112587389-752b0b00-8e38-11eb-8a52-cfb76c57e5eb.png) #### 1. Anonymous or strongly type [[Try it]](https://dotnetfiddle.net/w5WD1J) ```csharp var path = Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), $"{Guid.NewGuid()}.xlsx"); MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, new[] { new { Column1 = "MiniExcel", Column2 = 1 }, new { Column1 = "Github", Column2 = 2} }); ``` #### 2. `IEnumerable>` ```csharp var values = new List>() { new Dictionary{{ "Column1", "MiniExcel" }, { "Column2", 1 } }, new Dictionary{{ "Column1", "Github" }, { "Column2", 2 } } }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, values); ``` Create File Result : | Column1 | Column2 | | -------- | -------- | | MiniExcel | 1 | | Github | 2 | #### 3. IDataReader - `Recommended`, it can avoid to load all data into memory ```csharp MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, reader); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/121275378-149a5e80-c8bc-11eb-85fe-5453552134f0.png) DataReader export multiple sheets (recommand by Dapper ExecuteReader) ```csharp using (var cnn = Connection) { cnn.Open(); var sheets = new Dictionary(); sheets.Add("sheet1", cnn.ExecuteReader("select 1 id")); sheets.Add("sheet2", cnn.ExecuteReader("select 2 id")); MiniExcel.SaveAs("Demo.xlsx", sheets); } ``` #### 4. Datatable - `Not recommended`, it will load all data into memory - DataTable use Caption for column name first, then use columname ```csharp var path = Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), $"{Guid.NewGuid()}.xlsx"); var table = new DataTable(); { table.Columns.Add("Column1", typeof(string)); table.Columns.Add("Column2", typeof(decimal)); table.Rows.Add("MiniExcel", 1); table.Rows.Add("Github", 2); } MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, table); ``` #### 5. Dapper Query - `Not recommended`, it will load all data into memory, please use `ExecuteReader` ```csharp using (var connection = GetConnection(connectionString)) { var rows = connection.Query(@"select 'MiniExcel' as Column1,1 as Column2 union all select 'Github',2"); MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, rows); } ``` #### 6. SaveAs to MemoryStream [[Try it]](https://dotnetfiddle.net/JOen0e) ```csharp using (var stream = new MemoryStream()) //support FileStream,MemoryStream ect. { stream.SaveAs(values); } ``` e.g : api of export excel ```csharp public IActionResult DownloadExcel() { var values = new[] { new { Column1 = "MiniExcel", Column2 = 1 }, new { Column1 = "Github", Column2 = 2} }; var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); memoryStream.SaveAs(values); memoryStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); return new FileStreamResult(memoryStream, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet") { FileDownloadName = "demo.xlsx" }; } ``` #### 7. Create Multiple Sheets ```csharp // 1. Dictionary var users = new[] { new { Name = "Jack", Age = 25 }, new { Name = "Mike", Age = 44 } }; var department = new[] { new { ID = "01", Name = "HR" }, new { ID = "02", Name = "IT" } }; var sheets = new Dictionary { ["users"] = users, ["department"] = department }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, sheets); // 2. DataSet var sheets = new DataSet(); sheets.Add(UsersDataTable); sheets.Add(DepartmentDataTable); //.. MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, sheets); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/118130875-6e7c4580-b430-11eb-9b82-22f02716bd63.png) #### 8. TableStyles Options Default style ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/138234373-cfa97109-b71f-4711-b7f5-0eaaa4a0a3a6.png) Without style configuration ```csharp var config = new OpenXmlConfiguration() { TableStyles = TableStyles.None }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, value,configuration:config); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/118784917-f3e57700-b8c2-11eb-8718-8d955b1bc197.png) #### 9. AutoFilter Since v0.19.0 `OpenXmlConfiguration.AutoFilter` can en/unable AutoFilter , default value is `true`, and setting AutoFilter way: ```csharp MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, value, configuration: new OpenXmlConfiguration() { AutoFilter = false }); ``` #### 10. Create Image ```csharp var value = new[] { new { Name="github",Image=File.ReadAllBytes(PathHelper.GetFile("images/github_logo.png"))}, new { Name="google",Image=File.ReadAllBytes(PathHelper.GetFile("images/google_logo.png"))}, new { Name="microsoft",Image=File.ReadAllBytes(PathHelper.GetFile("images/microsoft_logo.png"))}, new { Name="reddit",Image=File.ReadAllBytes(PathHelper.GetFile("images/reddit_logo.png"))}, new { Name="statck_overflow",Image=File.ReadAllBytes(PathHelper.GetFile("images/statck_overflow_logo.png"))}, }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, value); ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/150462383-ad9931b3-ed8d-4221-a1d6-66f799743433.png) #### 11. File Export Since 0.21.0, when value type is `byte[]` then system will save base64 string at cell by default, and when import system can be converted to `byte[]`. And if you don't want to use it, you can set `OpenXmlConfiguration.ConvertByteArrayToBase64String` to `false`, it can improve the system efficiency. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/150499973-682be39a-8a98-4681-915f-45c8e8e725fb.png) ### Fill Data To Excel Template - The declaration is similar to Vue template `{{variable name}}`, or the collection rendering `{{collection name.field name}}` - Collection rendering support IEnumerable/DataTable/DapperRow #### 1. Basic Fill Template: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114537556-ed8d2b00-9c84-11eb-8303-a69f62c41e5b.png) Result: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114537490-d8180100-9c84-11eb-8c69-db58692f3a85.png) Code: ```csharp // 1. By POCO var value = new { Name = "Jack", CreateDate = new DateTime(2021, 01, 01), VIP = true, Points = 123 }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); // 2. By Dictionary var value = new Dictionary() { ["Name"] = "Jack", ["CreateDate"] = new DateTime(2021, 01, 01), ["VIP"] = true, ["Points"] = 123 }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` #### 2. IEnumerable Data Fill > Note1: Use the first IEnumerable of the same column as the basis for filling list Template: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114564652-14f2f080-9ca3-11eb-831f-09e3fedbc5fc.png) Result: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114564204-b2015980-9ca2-11eb-900d-e21249f93f7c.png) Code: ```csharp //1. By POCO var value = new { employees = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Lisa",department="HR"}, new {name="John",department="HR"}, new {name="Mike",department="IT"}, new {name="Neo",department="IT"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} } }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); //2. By Dictionary var value = new Dictionary() { ["employees"] = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Lisa",department="HR"}, new {name="John",department="HR"}, new {name="Mike",department="IT"}, new {name="Neo",department="IT"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} } }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` #### 3. Complex Data Fill > Note: Support multi-sheets and using same varible Template: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114565255-acf0da00-9ca3-11eb-8a7f-8131b2265ae8.png) Result: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114565329-bf6b1380-9ca3-11eb-85e3-3969e8bf6378.png) ```csharp // 1. By POCO var value = new { title = "FooCompany", managers = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} }, employees = new[] { new {name="Wade",department="HR"}, new {name="Felix",department="HR"}, new {name="Eric",department="IT"}, new {name="Keaton",department="IT"} } }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); // 2. By Dictionary var value = new Dictionary() { ["title"] = "FooCompany", ["managers"] = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} }, ["employees"] = new[] { new {name="Wade",department="HR"}, new {name="Felix",department="HR"}, new {name="Eric",department="IT"}, new {name="Keaton",department="IT"} } }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` #### 4. Fill Big Data Performance > NOTE: Using IEnumerable deferred execution not ToList can save max memory usage in MiniExcel ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114577091-5046ec80-9cae-11eb-924b-087c7becf8da.png) #### 5. Cell value auto mapping type Template ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114802504-64830a80-9dd0-11eb-8d56-8e8c401b3ace.png) Result ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114802419-43221e80-9dd0-11eb-9ffe-a2ce34fe7076.png) Class ```csharp public class Poco { public string @string { get; set; } public int? @int { get; set; } public decimal? @decimal { get; set; } public double? @double { get; set; } public DateTime? datetime { get; set; } public bool? @bool { get; set; } public Guid? Guid { get; set; } } ``` Code ```csharp var poco = new TestIEnumerableTypePoco { @string = "string", @int = 123, @decimal = decimal.Parse("123.45"), @double = (double)123.33, @datetime = new DateTime(2021, 4, 1), @bool = true, @Guid = Guid.NewGuid() }; var value = new { Ts = new[] { poco, new TestIEnumerableTypePoco{}, null, poco } }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` #### 6. Example : List Github Projects Template ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/115068623-12073280-9f25-11eb-9124-f4b3efcdb2a7.png) Result ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/115068639-1a5f6d80-9f25-11eb-9f45-27c434d19a78.png) Code ```csharp var projects = new[] { new {Name = "MiniExcel",Link="https://github.com/shps951023/MiniExcel",Star=146, CreateTime=new DateTime(2021,03,01)}, new {Name = "HtmlTableHelper",Link="https://github.com/shps951023/HtmlTableHelper",Star=16, CreateTime=new DateTime(2020,02,01)}, new {Name = "PocoClassGenerator",Link="https://github.com/shps951023/PocoClassGenerator",Star=16, CreateTime=new DateTime(2019,03,17)} }; var value = new { User = "ITWeiHan", Projects = projects, TotalStar = projects.Sum(s => s.Star) }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` #### 7. DataTable as parameter ```csharp var managers = new DataTable(); { managers.Columns.Add("name"); managers.Columns.Add("department"); managers.Rows.Add("Jack", "HR"); managers.Rows.Add("Loan", "IT"); } var value = new Dictionary() { ["title"] = "FooCompany", ["managers"] = managers, }; MiniExcel.SaveAsByTemplate(path, templatePath, value); ``` ### Excel Column Name/Index/Ignore Attribute #### 1. Specify the column name, column index, column ignore Excel Example ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114230869-3e163700-99ac-11eb-9a90-2039d4b4b313.png) Code ```csharp public class ExcelAttributeDemo { [ExcelColumnName("Column1")] public string Test1 { get; set; } [ExcelColumnName("Column2")] public string Test2 { get; set; } [ExcelIgnore] public string Test3 { get; set; } [ExcelColumnIndex("I")] // system will convert "I" to 8 index public string Test4 { get; set; } public string Test5 { get; } //wihout set will ignore public string Test6 { get; private set; } //un-public set will ignore [ExcelColumnIndex(3)] // start with 0 public string Test7 { get; set; } } var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path).ToList(); Assert.Equal("Column1", rows[0].Test1); Assert.Equal("Column2", rows[0].Test2); Assert.Null(rows[0].Test3); Assert.Equal("Test7", rows[0].Test4); Assert.Null(rows[0].Test5); Assert.Null(rows[0].Test6); Assert.Equal("Test4", rows[0].Test7); ``` #### 2. Custom Format (ExcelFormatAttribute) Since V0.21.0 support class which contains `ToString(string content)` method format Class ```csharp public class Dto { public string Name { get; set; } [ExcelFormat("MMMM dd, yyyy")] public DateTime InDate { get; set; } } ``` Code ```csharp var value = new Dto[] { new Issue241Dto{ Name="Jack",InDate=new DateTime(2021,01,04)}, new Issue241Dto{ Name="Henry",InDate=new DateTime(2020,04,05)}, }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, value); ``` Result ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/118910788-ab2bcd80-b957-11eb-8d42-bfce36621b1b.png) Query supports custom format conversion ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/118911286-87b55280-b958-11eb-9a88-c8ff403d240a.png) #### 3. Set Column Width(ExcelColumnWidthAttribute) ```csharp public class Dto { [ExcelColumnWidth(20)] public int ID { get; set; } [ExcelColumnWidth(15.50)] public string Name { get; set; } } ``` #### 4. Multiple column names mapping to the same property. ```csharp public class Dto { [ExcelColumnName(excelColumnName:"EmployeeNo",aliases:new[] { "EmpNo","No" })] public string Empno { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } } ``` ### Excel Type Auto Check - MiniExcel will check whether it is xlsx or csv based on the `file extension` by default, but there may be inaccuracy, please specify it manually. - Stream cannot be know from which excel, please specify it manually. ```csharp stream.SaveAs(excelType:ExcelType.CSV); //or stream.SaveAs(excelType:ExcelType.XLSX); //or stream.Query(excelType:ExcelType.CSV); //or stream.Query(excelType:ExcelType.XLSX); ``` ### CSV #### Note - Default return `string` type, and value will not be converted to numbers or datetime, unless the type is defined by strong typing generic. #### Custom separator The default is `,` as the separator, you can modify the `Seperator` property for customization ```csharp var config = new MiniExcelLibs.Csv.CsvConfiguration() { Seperator=';' }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, values,configuration: config); ``` #### Custom line break The default is `\r\n` as the newline character, you can modify the `NewLine` property for customization ```csharp var config = new MiniExcelLibs.Csv.CsvConfiguration() { NewLine='\n' }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, values,configuration: config); ``` #### Custom coding - The default encoding is "Detect Encoding From Byte Order Marks" (detectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks: true) - f you have custom encoding requirements, please modify the StreamReaderFunc / StreamWriterFunc property ```csharp // Read var config = new MiniExcelLibs.Csv.CsvConfiguration() { StreamReaderFunc = (stream) => new StreamReader(stream,Encoding.GetEncoding("gb2312")) }; var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path, true,excelType:ExcelType.CSV,configuration: config); // Write var config = new MiniExcelLibs.Csv.CsvConfiguration() { StreamWriterFunc = (stream) => new StreamWriter(stream, Encoding.GetEncoding("gb2312")) }; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, value,excelType:ExcelType.CSV, configuration: config); ``` ### Async v0.17.0 support Async (thanks isdaniel ( SHIH,BING-SIOU)](https://github.com/isdaniel)) ```csharp public static Task SaveAsAsync(string path, object value, bool printHeader = true, string sheetName = "Sheet1", ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, IConfiguration configuration = null) public static Task SaveAsAsync(this Stream stream, object value, bool printHeader = true, string sheetName = "Sheet1", ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.XLSX, IConfiguration configuration = null) public static Task> QueryAsync(string path, bool useHeaderRow = false, string sheetName = null, ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, string startCell = "A1", IConfiguration configuration = null) public static Task> QueryAsync(this Stream stream, string sheetName = null, ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, string startCell = "A1", IConfiguration configuration = null) where T : class, new() public static Task> QueryAsync(string path, string sheetName = null, ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, string startCell = "A1", IConfiguration configuration = null) where T : class, new() public static Task>> QueryAsync(this Stream stream, bool useHeaderRow = false, string sheetName = null, ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, string startCell = "A1", IConfiguration configuration = null) public static Task SaveAsByTemplateAsync(this Stream stream, string templatePath, object value) public static Task SaveAsByTemplateAsync(this Stream stream, byte[] templateBytes, object value) public static Task SaveAsByTemplateAsync(string path, string templatePath, object value) public static Task SaveAsByTemplateAsync(string path, byte[] templateBytes, object value) public static Task QueryAsDataTableAsync(string path, bool useHeaderRow = true, string sheetName = null, ExcelType excelType = ExcelType.UNKNOWN, string startCell = "A1", IConfiguration configuration = null) ``` ### Others #### 1. Enum Be sure excel & property name same, system will auto mapping (case insensitive) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/116210595-9784b100-a775-11eb-936f-8e7a8b435961.png) Since V0.18.0 support Enum Description ```csharp public class Dto { public string Name { get; set; } public I49RYZUserType UserType { get; set; } } public enum Type { [Description("General User")] V1, [Description("General Administrator")] V2, [Description("Super Administrator")] V3 } ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/133116630-27cc7161-099a-48b8-9784-cd1e443af3d1.png) #### 2. Convert CSV to XLSX or Convert XLSX to CSV ```csharp MiniExcel.ConvertXlsxToCsv(xlsxPath, csvPath); MiniExcel.ConvertXlsxToCsv(xlsxStream, csvStream); MiniExcel.ConvertXlsxToCsv(csvPath, xlsxPath); MiniExcel.ConvertXlsxToCsv(csvStream, xlsxStream); ``` ### Examples: #### 1. SQLite & Dapper `Large Size File` SQL Insert Avoid OOM note : please don't call ToList/ToArray methods after Query, it'll load all data into memory ```csharp using (var connection = new SQLiteConnection(connectionString)) { connection.Open(); using (var transaction = connection.BeginTransaction()) using (var stream = File.OpenRead(path)) { var rows = stream.Query(); foreach (var row in rows) connection.Execute("insert into T (A,B) values (@A,@B)", new { row.A, row.B }, transaction: transaction); transaction.Commit(); } } ``` performance: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/111072579-2dda7b80-8516-11eb-9843-c01a1edc88ec.png) #### 2. ASP.NET Core 3.1 or MVC 5 Download/Upload Excel Xlsx API Demo [Try it](tests/MiniExcel.Tests.AspNetCore) ```csharp public class ApiController : Controller { public IActionResult Index() { return new ContentResult { ContentType = "text/html", StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.OK, Content = @" DownloadExcel
DownloadExcelFromTemplatePath
DownloadExcelFromTemplateBytes

Upload Excel


" }; } public IActionResult DownloadExcel() { var values = new[] { new { Column1 = "MiniExcel", Column2 = 1 }, new { Column1 = "Github", Column2 = 2} }; var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); memoryStream.SaveAs(values); memoryStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); return new FileStreamResult(memoryStream, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet") { FileDownloadName = "demo.xlsx" }; } public IActionResult DownloadExcelFromTemplatePath() { string templatePath = "TestTemplateComplex.xlsx"; Dictionary value = new Dictionary() { ["title"] = "FooCompany", ["managers"] = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} }, ["employees"] = new[] { new {name="Wade",department="HR"}, new {name="Felix",department="HR"}, new {name="Eric",department="IT"}, new {name="Keaton",department="IT"} } }; MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); memoryStream.SaveAsByTemplate(templatePath, value); memoryStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); return new FileStreamResult(memoryStream, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet") { FileDownloadName = "demo.xlsx" }; } private static Dictionary TemplateBytesCache = new Dictionary(); static ApiController() { string templatePath = "TestTemplateComplex.xlsx"; byte[] bytes = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(templatePath); TemplateBytesCache.Add(templatePath, bytes); } public IActionResult DownloadExcelFromTemplateBytes() { byte[] bytes = TemplateBytesCache["TestTemplateComplex.xlsx"]; Dictionary value = new Dictionary() { ["title"] = "FooCompany", ["managers"] = new[] { new {name="Jack",department="HR"}, new {name="Loan",department="IT"} }, ["employees"] = new[] { new {name="Wade",department="HR"}, new {name="Felix",department="HR"}, new {name="Eric",department="IT"}, new {name="Keaton",department="IT"} } }; MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); memoryStream.SaveAsByTemplate(bytes, value); memoryStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); return new FileStreamResult(memoryStream, "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet") { FileDownloadName = "demo.xlsx" }; } public IActionResult UploadExcel(IFormFile excel) { var stream = new MemoryStream(); excel.CopyTo(stream); foreach (var item in stream.Query(true)) { // do your logic etc. } return Ok("File uploaded successfully"); } } ``` #### 3. Paging Query ```csharp void Main() { var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path); Console.WriteLine("==== No.1 Page ===="); Console.WriteLine(Page(rows,pageSize:3,page:1)); Console.WriteLine("==== No.50 Page ===="); Console.WriteLine(Page(rows,pageSize:3,page:50)); Console.WriteLine("==== No.5000 Page ===="); Console.WriteLine(Page(rows,pageSize:3,page:5000)); } public static IEnumerable Page(IEnumerable en, int pageSize, int page) { return en.Skip(page * pageSize).Take(pageSize); } ``` ![20210419](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/114679083-6ef4c400-9d3e-11eb-9f78-a86daa45fe46.gif) #### 4. WebForm export Excel by memorystream ```csharp var fileName = "Demo.xlsx"; var sheetName = "Sheet1"; HttpResponse response = HttpContext.Current.Response; response.Clear(); response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet"; response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", $"attachment;filename=\"{fileName}\""); var values = new[] { new { Column1 = "MiniExcel", Column2 = 1 }, new { Column1 = "Github", Column2 = 2} }; var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); memoryStream.SaveAs(values, sheetName: sheetName); memoryStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); memoryStream.CopyTo(Response.OutputStream); response.End(); ``` #### 5. Dynamic i18n multi-language and role authority management Like the example, create a method to handle i18n and permission management, and use `yield return to return IEnumerable>` to achieve dynamic and low-memory processing effects ```csharp void Main() { var value = new Order[] { new Order(){OrderNo = "SO01",CustomerID="C001",ProductID="P001",Qty=100,Amt=500}, new Order(){OrderNo = "SO02",CustomerID="C002",ProductID="P002",Qty=300,Amt=400}, }; Console.WriteLine("en-Us and Sales role"); { var path = Path.GetTempPath() + Guid.NewGuid() + ".xlsx"; var lang = "en-US"; var role = "Sales"; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, GetOrders(lang, role, value)); MiniExcel.Query(path, true).Dump(); } Console.WriteLine("zh-CN and PMC role"); { var path = Path.GetTempPath() + Guid.NewGuid() + ".xlsx"; var lang = "zh-CN"; var role = "PMC"; MiniExcel.SaveAs(path, GetOrders(lang, role, value)); MiniExcel.Query(path, true).Dump(); } } private IEnumerable> GetOrders(string lang, string role, Order[] orders) { foreach (var order in orders) { var newOrder = new Dictionary(); if (lang == "zh-CN") { newOrder.Add("客户编号", order.CustomerID); newOrder.Add("订单编号", order.OrderNo); newOrder.Add("产品编号", order.ProductID); newOrder.Add("数量", order.Qty); if (role == "Sales") newOrder.Add("价格", order.Amt); yield return newOrder; } else if (lang == "en-US") { newOrder.Add("Customer ID", order.CustomerID); newOrder.Add("Order No", order.OrderNo); newOrder.Add("Product ID", order.ProductID); newOrder.Add("Quantity", order.Qty); if (role == "Sales") newOrder.Add("Amount", order.Amt); yield return newOrder; } else { throw new InvalidDataException($"lang {lang} wrong"); } } } public class Order { public string OrderNo { get; set; } public string CustomerID { get; set; } public decimal Qty { get; set; } public string ProductID { get; set; } public decimal Amt { get; set; } } ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/118939964-d24bc480-b982-11eb-88dd-f06655f6121a.png) ### FAQ #### Q: Excel header title not equal class property name, how to mapping? A. Please use ExcelColumnName attribute ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/116020475-eac50980-a678-11eb-8804-129e87200e5e.png) #### Q. How to query or export multiple-sheets? A. `GetSheetNames` method with Query sheetName parameter. ```csharp var sheets = MiniExcel.GetSheetNames(path); foreach (var sheet in sheets) { Console.WriteLine($"sheet name : {sheet} "); var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path,useHeaderRow:true,sheetName:sheet); Console.WriteLine(rows); } ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/116199841-2a1f5300-a76a-11eb-90a3-6710561cf6db.png) #### Q. Whether to use Count will load all data into the memory? No, the image test has 1 million rows*10 columns of data, the maximum memory usage is <60MB, and it takes 13.65 seconds ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/117118518-70586000-adc3-11eb-9ce3-2ba76cf8b5e5.png) #### Q. How does Query use integer indexs? The default index of Query is the string Key: A,B,C.... If you want to change to numeric index, please create the following method to convert ```csharp void Main() { var path = @"D:\git\MiniExcel\samples\xlsx\TestTypeMapping.xlsx"; var rows = MiniExcel.Query(path,true); foreach (var r in ConvertToIntIndexRows(rows)) { Console.Write($"column 0 : {r[0]} ,column 1 : {r[1]}"); Console.WriteLine(); } } private IEnumerable> ConvertToIntIndexRows(IEnumerable rows) { ICollection keys = null; var isFirst = true; foreach (IDictionary r in rows) { if(isFirst) { keys = r.Keys; isFirst = false; } var dic = new Dictionary(); var index = 0; foreach (var key in keys) dic[index++] = r[key]; yield return dic; } } ``` #### Q. No title empty excel is generated when the value is empty when exporting Excel Because MiniExcel uses a logic similar to JSON.NET to dynamically get type from values to simplify API operations, type cannot be knew without data. You can check [issue #133](https://github.com/shps951023/MiniExcel/issues/133) for understanding. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/122639771-546c0c00-d12e-11eb-800c-498db27889ca.png) > Strong type & DataTable will generate headers, but Dictionary are still empty Excel #### Q. How to stop the foreach when blank row? MiniExcel can be used with `LINQ TakeWhile` to stop foreach iterator. ![Image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/130209137-162621c2-f337-4479-9996-beeac65bc4d4.png) #### Q. How to remove empty rows? ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/137873865-7107d8f5-eb59-42db-903a-44e80589f1b2.png) IEnumerable : ```csharp public static IEnumerable QueryWithoutEmptyRow(Stream stream, bool useHeaderRow, string sheetName, ExcelType excelType, string startCell, IConfiguration configuration) { var rows = stream.Query(useHeaderRow,sheetName,excelType,startCell,configuration); foreach (IDictionary row in rows) { if(row.Keys.Any(key=>row[key]!=null)) yield return row; } } ``` DataTable : ```csharp public static DataTable QueryAsDataTableWithoutEmptyRow(Stream stream, bool useHeaderRow, string sheetName, ExcelType excelType, string startCell, IConfiguration configuration) { if (sheetName == null && excelType != ExcelType.CSV) /*Issue #279*/ sheetName = stream.GetSheetNames().First(); var dt = new DataTable(sheetName); var first = true; var rows = stream.Query(useHeaderRow,sheetName,excelType,startCell,configuration); foreach (IDictionary row in rows) { if (first) { foreach (var key in row.Keys) { var column = new DataColumn(key, typeof(object)) { Caption = key }; dt.Columns.Add(column); } dt.BeginLoadData(); first = false; } var newRow = dt.NewRow(); var isNull=true; foreach (var key in row.Keys) { var _v = row[key]; if(_v!=null) isNull = false; newRow[key] = _v; } if(!isNull) dt.Rows.Add(newRow); } dt.EndLoadData(); return dt; } ``` #### Q. How SaveAs(path,value) to replace exists file and without throwing "The file ...xlsx already exists error" Please use Stream class to custom file creating logic, e.g: ```C# using (var stream = File.Create("Demo.xlsx")) MiniExcel.SaveAs(stream,value); ``` ### Limitations and caveats - Not support xls and encrypted file now - xlsm only support Query ### Reference [ExcelDataReader](https://github.com/ExcelDataReader/ExcelDataReader) / [ClosedXML](https://github.com/ClosedXML/ClosedXML) / [Dapper](https://github.com/DapperLib/Dapper) / [ExcelNumberFormat](https://github.com/andersnm/ExcelNumberFormat) ### Thanks #### [Jetbrains](https://www.jetbrains.com/) ![jetbrains-variant-2](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/123997015-8456c180-da02-11eb-829a-aec476fe8e94.png) Thanks for providing a free All product IDE for this project ([License](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/12729184/123988233-6ab17c00-d9fa-11eb-8739-2a08c6a4a263.png)) ### Contributors ![](https://contrib.rocks/image?repo=shps951023/MiniExcel)
