Function-based views

def excelview(request):
    objs = SomeModel.objects.all()
    return ExcelResponse(objs)

Or you can construct your data manually.

from excel_response import ExcelResponse


def excelview(request):
    data = [
        ['Column 1', 'Column 2'],
        [1,2]
        [23,67]
    ]
    return ExcelResponse(data, 'my_data')

Class-based views

These are as simple as import and go!

from excel_response import ExcelView


class ModelExportView(ExcelView):
    model = SomeModel
