The problem

Imagine having different types of data and you want to export them easily in an xlsx file. You may need this at your work, to present any kind of statistics.. Its necessary to have a service that exports any kind of data that you will provide to it.

Like the method above:

public static void InsertData(List<object> objects)
{
}

Instalation

[Using NuGet]

Search into the NuGet (prerelease) packages the library or run the following command:

PM> Install-Package Xporter.Core -Version 0.2.0-alpha

• Rename the folder you copied to utilityXporter

[GIT Submodule]

  git submodule add -b master git://github.com/dimgrev/Xporter.git 
Plugin/utilityXporter
  git submodule init
  git submodule update

Usage

To use this library, add a using statement for Xporter {using Xporter;}

Now you can call the base static class named "Xport."

and on that class call one of three methods:

* Xport.LoadFromFileInfo()
* Xport.LoadFromFileStream()
* Xport.CreateNewPackage()

Then you can use the library extensions methods listed below as you like:

* .LoadTempl()		+1 overload	--> to load a template from another xlsx file to the current one
* .InsertData()		+2 overloads	--> to insert any kind of data from a model all other source
* .WriteToCells()			--> to write something in specified cells
* .Clear()		+1 overload	--> to clear the data of a worksheet or clear all sheets of a file

ToDo

• Add method Insert-inTo-Cells based on the content that cells hold <br> ** eg. insertToCells(cell's value: string "< Insert Here > ", value to insert: string "Put This into that cell");

• Maybe - Change Xlsx File's style
