Support the project

If your company has embedded pyexcel and its components into a revenue generating product, please support me on github, patreon or bounty source to maintain the project and develop it further.

If you are an individual, you are welcome to support me too and for however long you feel like. As my backer, you will receive early access to pyexcel related contents.

And your issues will get prioritized if you would like to become my patreon as pyexcel pro user.

With your financial support, I will be able to invest a little bit more time in coding, documentation and writing interesting posts.

Introduction

pyexcel-xlsbr does read Microsoft Excel tm xlsb file. So far, it can read data out but cannot recognize date time format from float datat type.

Installation

You can install pyexcel-xlsbr via pip:

$ pip install pyexcel-xlsbr

or clone it and install it:

$ git clone https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel-xlsbr.git
$ cd pyexcel-xlsbr
$ python setup.py install

Development guide

Development steps for code changes

1. git clone https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel-xlsbr.git

2. cd pyexcel-xlsbr

Upgrade your setup tools and pip. They are needed for development and testing only:

1. pip install –upgrade setuptools pip

Then install relevant development requirements:

1. pip install -r rnd_requirements.txt # if such a file exists

2. pip install -r requirements.txt

3. pip install -r tests/requirements.txt

Once you have finished your changes, please provide test case(s), relevant documentation and update CHANGELOG.rst.

Note

As to rnd_requirements.txt, usually, it is created when a dependent library is not released. Once the dependecy is installed (will be released), the future version of the dependency in the requirements.txt will be valid.

How to test your contribution

Although nose and doctest are both used in code testing, it is adviable that unit tests are put in tests. doctest is incorporated only to make sure the code examples in documentation remain valid across different development releases.

On Linux/Unix systems, please launch your tests like this:

$ make

On Windows systems, please issue this command:

> test.bat

Before you commit

Please run:

$ make format
