Fast Excel import/export for Laravel, thanks to Spout. See benchmarks below.
Install via composer:
composer require rap2hpoutre/fast-excel
Export a Model to .xlsx file:
use Rap2hpoutre\FastExcel\FastExcel;
use App\User;
// Load users
$users = User::all();
// Export all users
(new FastExcel($users))->export('file.xlsx');Export a Model or a Collection:
$list = collect([
[ 'id' => 1, 'name' => 'Jane' ],
[ 'id' => 2, 'name' => 'John' ],
]);
(new FastExcel($list))->export('file.xlsx');Export xlsx, ods and csv:
$invoices = App\Invoice::orderBy('created_at', 'DESC')->get();
(new FastExcel($invoices))->export('invoices.csv');Export only some attributes specifying columns names:
(new FastExcel(User::all()))->export('users.csv', function ($user) {
return [
'Email' => $user->email,
'First Name' => $user->firstname,
'Last Name' => strtoupper($user->lastname),
];
});Download (from a controller method):
return (new FastExcel(User::all()))->download('file.xlsx');import returns a Collection:
$collection = (new FastExcel)->import('file.xlsx');Import a csv with specific delimiter, enclosure characters and "gbk" encoding:
$collection = (new FastExcel)->configureCsv(';', '#', 'gbk')->import('file.csv');Import and insert to database:
$users = (new FastExcel)->import('file.xlsx', function ($line) {
return User::create([
'name' => $line['Name'],
'email' => $line['Email']
]);
});You may use FastExcel with the optional Facade. Add the following line to config/app.php under the aliases key.
'FastExcel' => Rap2hpoutre\FastExcel\Facades\FastExcel::class,Using the Facade, you will not have access to the constructor. You may set your export data using the data method.
$list = collect([
[ 'id' => 1, 'name' => 'Jane' ],
[ 'id' => 2, 'name' => 'John' ],
]);
FastExcel::data($list)->export('file.xlsx');FastExcel provides a convenient global helper to quickly instantiate the FastExcel class anywhere in a Laravel application.
$collection = fastexcel()->import('file.xlsx');
fastexcel($collection)->export('file.xlsx');Export multiple sheets by creating a SheetCollection:
$sheets = new SheetCollection([
User::all(),
Project::all()
]);
(new FastExcel($sheets))->export('file.xlsx');Use index to specify sheet name:
$sheets = new SheetCollection([
'Users' => User::all(),
'Second sheet' => Project::all()
]);Import multiple sheets by using importSheets:
$sheets = (new FastExcel)->importSheets('file.xlsx');You can also import a specific sheet by its number:
$users = (new FastExcel)->sheet(3)->import('file.xlsx');Import multiple sheets with sheets names:
$sheets = (new FastExcel)->withSheetsNames()->importSheets('file.xlsx');Export rows one by one to avoid memory_limit issues using yield:
function usersGenerator() {
foreach (User::cursor() as $user) {
yield $user;
}
}
// Export consumes only a few MB, even with 10M+ rows.
(new FastExcel(usersGenerator()))->export('test.xlsx');Add header and rows style with headerStyle and rowsStyle methods.
use OpenSpout\Common\Entity\Style\Style;
$header_style = (new Style())->setFontBold();
$rows_style = (new Style())
->setFontSize(15)
->setShouldWrapText()
->setBackgroundColor("EDEDED");
return (new FastExcel($list))
->headerStyle($header_style)
->rowsStyle($rows_style)
->download('file.xlsx');FastExcel is intended at being Laravel-flavoured Spout: a simple, but elegant wrapper around Spout with the goal of simplifying imports and exports. It could be considered as a faster (and memory friendly) alternative to Laravel Excel, with less features. Use it only for simple tasks.
Tested on a MacBook Pro 2015 2,7 GHz Intel Core i5 16 Go 1867 MHz DDR3. Testing a XLSX export for 10000 lines, 20 columns with random data, 10 iterations, 2018-04-05. Don't trust benchmarks.
| Average memory peak usage | Execution time | |
|---|---|---|
| Laravel Excel | 123.56 M | 11.56 s |
| FastExcel | 2.09 M | 2.76 s |
Still, remember that Laravel Excel has many more features.
