SilverStripe Excel Import Export module

Replace all csv import/export functionnalities by Excel. Excel support is provided by PHPExcel.

These changes apply automatically to SecurityAdmin and ModelAdmin through extension.

Side functionnalities:

• It will enable bulk manager if class exists on the GridField
• Import specs are replaced by a sample file that is easier to use for clients

Configure exported fields

All fields are exported by default (not just summaryFields that are useless by themselves)

If you want to restrict the fields, you can either:

• Implement a exportedFields method on your model that should return an array of fields
• Define a exported_fields config field on your model that will restrict the list to these fields
• Define a unexported_fields config field on your model that will blacklist these fields from being exported
