node-excel-api

node-excel-api is a simple wrapper arround the mature JExcelApi project. So most APIs of JExcelApi are left unchanged. You can view documentation in JExcelApi's javadoc

Some methods are modified a little bit, see lib/excel.iced

Examples

Parsing

Workbook = require('excel-api').Workbook;
// http://jexcelapi.sourceforge.net/resources/javadocs/2_6_10/docs/jxl/Workbook.html#getWorkbook(java.io.File)
Workbook.getWorkbook('./input.xls', function(err, workbook){
  
  // http://jexcelapi.sourceforge.net/resources/javadocs/2_6_10/docs/jxl/Workbook.html#getSheetNames()
  workbook.getSheetNames(function(err, names){
    console.log('sheets: ' + names);

    // http://jexcelapi.sourceforge.net/resources/javadocs/2_6_10/docs/jxl/Workbook.html#getSheet(java.lang.String)
    workbook.getSheet('Sheet1', function(err, sheet){

      // http://jexcelapi.sourceforge.net/resources/javadocs/2_6_10/docs/jxl/Sheet.html#getRows(int)
      sheet.getRows(function(err, rows){
