BigXlsxBundle
=============

[](#bigxlsxbundle)

Symfony2 Bundle for generating large multi-sheeted xlsx files with low memory usage.

This Bundle basically acts as a replacement for creating csv files with large datasets. This, because the CSV format can be troublesome when it comes to difference in default cell separators en line-endings on specific operating systems. Also, obviously, CSV cannot handle multiple sheets.

This bundle uses the 'codeplex/phpexcel' bundle but tries to get rid of the enormous execution time and memory consumption when one wants to store large datasets in a xlsx.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

add this to your composer.json:

```
	"bassim/big-xlsx-bundle": "dev-master"

```

add this to your AppKernel.php

```
	new Bassim\BigXlsxBundle\BassimBigXlsxBundle(),

```

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

```
	/** @var $service BigXlsxService */
	$service = $container->get('bassim_big_xlsx.service');

	$data[] = array("id","name");
	for ($i=0;$iaddSheet(0, "test Sheet_0", $data);
	$file = $service->getFile();

```

Adding a custom sheet
---------------------

[](#adding-a-custom-sheet)

```
   /** @var $service BigXlsxService */
	$service = $container->get('bassim_big_xlsx.service');

	$data[] = array("id","name");
	for ($i=0;$iaddSheet(0, "test Sheet_0", $data);

	$objPHPExcel = $service->getPHPExcel();

	//add custom sheet
	$objPHPExcel->createSheet(1);
	$objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(1);
	$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->setTitle("test");

	// ....

	$file = $service->getFile();

```
