Read and write Office documents from Clojure

Docjure

Docjure makes reading and writing Office documents in Clojure easy.

Usage

Example: Read a Price List spreadsheet

(use 'dk.ative.docjure.spreadsheet)       

;; Load a spreadsheet and read the first two columns from the 
;; price list sheet:
(->> (load-workbook "spreadsheet.xlsx")
     (select-sheet "Price List")
     (select-columns {:A :name, :B :price}))

;=> [{:name "Foo Widget", :price 100}, {:name "Bar Widget", :price 200}]

Example: Create a spreadsheet

This example creates a spreadsheet with a single sheet named "Price List". It has three rows. We apply a style of yellow background colour and bold font to the top header row, then save the spreadsheet.

(use 'dk.ative.docjure.spreadsheet)       

;; Create a spreadsheet and save it
(let [wb (create-workbook "Price List"
                          [["Name" "Price"]
                           ["Foo Widget" 100]
                           ["Bar Widget" 200]])
      sheet (select-sheet "Price List" wb)
      header-row (first (row-seq sheet))]
  (do
    (set-row-style! header-row (create-cell-style! wb {:background :yellow,
                                                       :font {:bold true}}))
    (save-workbook! "spreadsheet.xlsx" wb)))

Automatically get the Docjure jar from Clojars

The Docjure jar is distributed on Clojars.

If you are using the Leiningen build tool just add this line to the :dependencies list in project.clj to use it:

[dk.ative/docjure "1.6.0"]	

Remember to issue the 'lein deps' command to download it.

Example project.clj for using Docjure 1.6.0

(defproject some.cool/project "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT"
  :description "Spreadsheet magic using Docjure"
  :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.4.0"]
                 [dk.ative/docjure "1.6.0"]])
