Lightweight XLSX writer with emphasis on minimizing memory usage.

Project description

Introduction

Build Status Coverage Status PyPI Release

XLSXLite is a lightweight XLSX writer with emphasis on minimizing memory usage. It's also really fast.

from xlsxlite.book import XLSXBook
book = XLSXBook()
sheet1 = book.add_sheet("People")
sheet1.append_row("Name", "Email", "Age")
sheet1.append_row("Jim", "jim@acme.com", 45)
book.finalize(to_file="simple.xlsx")

Limitations

This library is for projects which need to generate large spreadsheets, quickly, for the purposes of data exchange, and so it intentionally only supports a tiny subset of XLSX specification:

  • No styling
  • Only strings, numbers and dates are supported cell types

Development

To run all tests:

py.test xlsxlite -s
