Examples

XLSX to html table

echo SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx')->toHTML();

or

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx') ) {
	echo '<table border="1" cellpadding="3" style="border-collapse: collapse">';
	foreach( $xlsx->rows() as $r ) {
		echo '<tr><td>'.implode('</td><td>', $r ).'</td></tr>';
	}
	echo '</table>';
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

or styled html table

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book_styled.xlsx') ) {
    echo $xlsx->toHTMLEx();
}

XLSX read huge file, xlsx to csv

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse( 'xlsx/books.xlsx' ) ) {
    $f = fopen('book.csv', 'wb');
    // fwrite($f, chr(0xEF) . chr(0xBB) . chr(0xBF)); // UTF-8 BOM
    foreach ( $xlsx->readRows() as $r ) {
        fputcsv($f, $r); // fputcsv($f, $r, ';', '"', "\\", "\r\n");
    }
    fclose($f);
} else {
    echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

XLSX get sheet names and sheet indexes

// Sheet numeration started 0

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse( 'xlsx/books.xlsx' ) ) {
    print_r( $xlsx->sheetNames() );
    print_r( $xlsx->sheetName( $xlsx->activeSheet ) );
}
Array
(
    [0] => Sheet1
    [1] => Sheet2
    [2] => Sheet3
)
Sheet2

Using rowsEx() to extract cell info

$xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx');
print_r( $xlsx->rowsEx() );

Select Sheet

$xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx');
// Sheet numeration started 0, we select second worksheet
foreach( $xlsx->rows(1) as $r ) {
// ...
}

Get sheet by index

$xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('book.xlsx');	
echo 'Sheet Name 2 = '.$xlsx->sheetName(1);

XLSX::parse remote data

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('https://www.example.com/example.xlsx' ) ) {
	$dim = $xlsx->dimension(1); // don't trust dimension extracted from xml
	$num_cols = $dim[0];
	$num_rows = $dim[1];
	echo $xlsx->sheetName(1).':'.$num_cols.'x'.$num_rows;
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

XLSX::parse memory data

// For instance $data is a data from database or cache    
if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parseData( $data ) ) {
	print_r( $xlsx->rows() );
} else {
	echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

Get Cell (slow)

echo $xlsx->getCell(0, 'B2'); // The Hobbit

DateTime helpers

// default SimpleXLSX datetime format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS (ISO, MySQL)
echo $xlsx->getCell(0,'C2'); // 2016-04-12 13:41:00

// custom datetime format
$xlsx->setDateTimeFormat('d.m.Y H:i');
echo $xlsx->getCell(0,'C2'); // 12.04.2016 13:41

// unixstamp
$xlsx->setDateTimeFormat('U');
$ts = $xlsx->getCell(0,'C2'); // 1460468460
echo gmdate('Y-m-d', $ts); // 2016-04-12
echo gmdate('H:i:s', $ts); // 13:41:00

// raw excel value
$xlsx->setDateTimeFormat( NULL ); // returns as excel datetime
$xd = $xlsx->getCell(0,'C2'); // 42472.570138889
echo gmdate('m/d/Y', $xlsx->unixstamp( $xd )); // 04/12/2016
echo gmdate('H:i:s', $xlsx->unixstamp( $xd )); // 13:41:00 

Rows with header values as keys

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parse('books.xlsx')) {
    // Produce array keys from the array values of 1st array element
    $header_values = $rows = [];
    foreach ( $xlsx->rows() as $k => $r ) {
        if ( $k === 0 ) {
            $header_values = $r;
            continue;
        }
        $rows[] = array_combine( $header_values, $r );
    }
    print_r( $rows );
}
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [ISBN] => 618260307
            [title] => The Hobbit

Debug

use Shuchkin\SimpleXLSX;

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL );
ini_set('display_errors', 1 );

if ( $xlsx = SimpleXLSX::parseFile('books.xlsx', true ) ) {
    echo $xlsx->toHTML();
} else {
    echo SimpleXLSX::parseError();
}

Classic OOP style

use SimpleXLSX;

$xlsx = new SimpleXLSX('books.xlsx'); // try...catch
if ( $xlsx->success() ) {
    foreach( $xlsx->rows() as $r ) {
        // ...
    }
} else {
    echo 'xlsx error: '.$xlsx->error();
}
