FastExcelReader

FastExcelReader is a part of the FastExcelPhp Project which consists of

Introduction

This library is designed to be lightweight, super-fast and requires minimal memory usage.

FastExcelReader can read Excel compatible spreadsheets in XLSX format (Office 2007+). It only reads data, but it does it very quickly and with minimal memory usage.

Features

  • Supports XLSX format only (Office 2007+) with multiple worksheets
  • Supports autodetect currency/numeric/date types
  • Supports auto formatter and custom formatter of datetime values
  • The library can define and extract images from XLSX files
  • The library can read styling options of cells - formatting patterns, colors, borders, fonts, etc.

Installation

Use composer to install FastExcelReader into your project:

composer require avadim/fast-excel-reader

Jump to:

Usage

You can find more examples in /demo folder

Simple example

demo file

use \avadim\FastExcelReader\Excel;

$file = __DIR__ . '/files/demo-00-simple.xlsx';

// Open XLSX-file
$excel = Excel::open($file);
// Read all values as a flat array from current sheet
$result = $excel->readCells();

You will get this array:

Array
(
    [A1] => 'col1'
    [B1] => 'col2'
    [A2] => 111
    [B2] => 'aaa'
    [A3] => 222
    [B3] => 'bbb'
)

// Read all rows in two-dimensional array (ROW x COL)
$result = $excel->readRows();

You will get this array:

Array
(
    [1] => Array
        (
            ['A'] => 'col1'
            ['B'] => 'col2'
        )
    [2] => Array
        (
            ['A'] => 111
            ['B'] => 'aaa'
        )
    [3] => Array
        (
            ['A'] => 222
            ['B'] => 'bbb'
        )
)

// Read all columns in two-dimensional array (COL x ROW)
$result = $excel->readColumns();

You will get this array:

Array
(
    [A] => Array
        (
            [1] => 'col1'
            [2] => 111
            [3] => 222
        )

    [B] => Array
        (
            [1] => 'col2'
            [2] => 'aaa'
            [3] => 'bbb'
        )

)

Read values row by row in loop

$sheet = $excel->sheet();
foreach ($sheet->nextRow() as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // $rowData is array ['A' => ..., 'B' => ...]
    $addr = 'C' . $rowNum;
    if ($sheet->hasImage($addr)) {
        $sheet->saveImageTo($addr, $fullDirectoryPath);
    }
    // handling of $rowData here
    // ...
}

// OR
foreach ($sheet->nextRow() as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // handling of $rowData here
    // ...
    // get image list from current row
    $imageList = $sheet->getImageListByRow();
    foreach ($imageList as $imageInfo) {
        $imageBlob = $sheet->getImageBlob($imageInfo['address']);
    }
}

// OR
foreach ($sheet->nextRow(['A' => 'One', 'B' => 'Two'], Excel::KEYS_FIRST_ROW) as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // $rowData is array ['One' => ..., 'Two' => ...]
    // ...
}

Alternative way to read row by row

// Init internal read generator
$sheet->reset(['A' => 'One', 'B' => 'Two'], Excel::KEYS_FIRST_ROW);
// read the first row
$rowData = $sheet->readNextRow();
var_dump($rowData);

// read the next 3 rows
for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) {
    $rowData = $sheet->readNextRow();
    var_dump($rowData);
}

// Reset internal generator and read all rows
$sheet->reset(['A' => 'One', 'B' => 'Two'], Excel::KEYS_FIRST_ROW);
$result = [];
while ($rowData = $sheet->readNextRow()) {
    $result[] = $rowData;
}
var_dump($result);

Keys in resulting arrays

// Read rows and use the first row as column keys
$result = $excel->readRows(true);

You will get this result:

Array
(
    [2] => Array
        (
            ['col1'] => 111
            ['col2'] => 'aaa'
        )
    [3] => Array
        (
            ['col1'] => 222
            ['col2'] => 'bbb'
        )
)

The optional second argument specifies the result array keys

// Rows and cols start from zero
$result = $excel->readRows(false, Excel::KEYS_ZERO_BASED);

You will get this result:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => 'col1'
            [1] => 'col2'
        )
    [1] => Array
        (
            [0] => 111
            [1] => 'aaa'
        )
    [2] => Array
        (
            [0] => 222
            [1] => 'bbb'
        )
)

Allowed values of result mode

mode options descriptions
KEYS_ORIGINAL rows from '1', columns from 'A' (default)
KEYS_ROW_ZERO_BASED rows from 0
KEYS_COL_ZERO_BASED columns from 0
KEYS_ZERO_BASED rows from 0, columns from 0 (same as KEYS_ROW_ZERO_BASED + KEYS_COL_ZERO_BASED)
KEYS_ROW_ONE_BASED rows from 1
KEYS_COL_ONE_BASED columns from 1
KEYS_ONE_BASED rows from 1, columns from 1 (same as KEYS_ROW_ONE_BASED + KEYS_COL_ONE_BASED)

Additional options that can be combined with result modes

options descriptions
KEYS_FIRST_ROW the same as true in the first argument
KEYS_RELATIVE index from top left cell of area (not sheet)
KEYS_SWAP swap rows and columns

For example

$result = $excel->readRows(['A' => 'bee', 'B' => 'honey'], Excel::KEYS_FIRST_ROW | Excel::KEYS_ROW_ZERO_BASED);

You will get this result:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [bee] => 111
            [honey] => 'aaa'
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [bee] => 222
            [honey] => 'bbb'
        )

)

Empty cells & rows

The library already skips empty cells and empty rows by default. Empty cells are cells where nothing is written, and empty rows are rows where all cells are empty. If a cell contains an empty string, it is not considered empty. But you can change this behavior and skip cells with empty strings.

$sheet = $excel->sheet();

// Skip empty cells and empty rows
foreach ($sheet->nextRow() as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // handle $rowData
}

// Skip empty cells and cells with empty strings
foreach ($sheet->nextRow([], Excel::TREAT_EMPTY_STRING_AS_EMPTY_CELL) as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // handle $rowData
}

// Skip empty cells and empty rows (rows containing only whitespace characters are also considered empty)
foreach ($sheet->nextRow([], Excel::TRIM_STRINGS | Excel::TREAT_EMPTY_STRING_AS_EMPTY_CELL) as $rowNum => $rowData) {
    // handle $rowData
}

Other way

$sheet->reset([], Excel::TRIM_STRINGS | Excel::TREAT_EMPTY_STRING_AS_EMPTY_CELL);
$rowData = $sheet->readNextRow();
// do something

$rowData = $sheet->readNextRow();
// handle next row

// ...

Advanced example

use \avadim\FastExcelReader\Excel;

$file = __DIR__ . '/files/demo-02-advanced.xlsx';

$excel = Excel::open($file);

$result = [
    'sheets' => $excel->getSheetNames() // get all sheet names
];

$result['#1'] = $excel
    // select sheet by name
    ->selectSheet('Demo1') 
    // select area with data where the first row contains column keys
    ->setReadArea('B4:D11', true)  
    // set date format
    ->setDateFormat('Y-m-d') 
    // set key for column 'C' to 'Birthday'
    ->readRows(['C' => 'Birthday']); 

// read other arrays with custom column keys
// and in this case we define range by columns only
$columnKeys = ['B' => 'year', 'C' => 'value1', 'D' => 'value2'];
$result['#2'] = $excel
    ->selectSheet('Demo2', 'B:D')
    ->readRows($columnKeys);

$result['#3'] = $excel
    ->setReadArea('F5:H13')
    ->readRows($columnKeys);

You can set read area by defined names in workbook. For example if workbook has defined name Headers with range Demo1!$B$4:$D$4 then you can read cells by this name

$excel->setReadArea('Values');
$cells = $excel->readCells();

Note that since the value contains the sheet name, this sheet becomes the default sheet.

You can set read area in the sheet

$sheet = $excel->getSheet('Demo1')->setReadArea('Headers');
$cells = $sheet->readCells();

But if you try to use this name on another sheet, you will get an error

$sheet = $excel->getSheet('Demo2')->setReadArea('Headers');
// Exception: Wrong address or range "Values"

If necessary, you can fully control the reading process using the method readSheetCallback() with callback-function

use \avadim\FastExcelReader\Excel;

$excel = Excel::open($file);

$result = [];
$excel->readCallback(function ($row, $col, $val) use(&$result) {
    // Any manipulation here
    $result[$row][$col] = (string)$val;

    // if the function returns true then data reading is interrupted  
    return false;
});
var_dump($result);

Date Formatter

By default, all datetime values returns as timestamp. But you can change this behavior using dateFormatter()

demo date

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$sheet = $excel->sheet()->setReadArea('B5:D7');
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cells['C5']; // -2205187200

// If argument TRUE is passed, then all dates will be formatted as specified in cell styles
// IMPORTANT! The datetime format depends on the locale
$excel->dateFormatter(true);
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cells['C5']; // '14.02.1900'

// You can specify date format pattern
$excel->dateFormatter('Y-m-d');
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cells['C5']; // '1900-02-14'

// set date formatter function
$excel->dateFormatter(fn($value) => gmdate('m/d/Y', $value));
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cells['C5']; // '02/14/1900'

// returns DateTime instance
$excel->dateFormatter(fn($value) => (new \DateTime())->setTimestamp($value));
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo get_class($cells['C5']); // 'DateTime'

// custom manipulations with datetime values
$excel->dateFormatter(function($value, $format, $styleIdx) use($excel) {
    // get Excel format of the cell, e.g. '[$-F400]h:mm:ss\ AM/PM'
    $excelFormat = $excel->getFormatPattern($styleIdx);

    // get format converted for use in php functions date(), gmdate(), etc
    // for example the Excel pattern above would be converted to 'g:i:s A'
    $phpFormat = $excel->getDateFormatPattern($styleIdx);
    
    // and if you need you can get value of numFmtId for this cell
    $style = $excel->getCompleteStyleByIdx($styleIdx, true);
    $numFmtId = $style['format-num-id'];
    
    // do something and write to $result
    $result = gmdate($phpFormat, $value);

    return $result;
});

Sometimes, if a cell's format is specified as a date but does not contain a date, the library may misinterpret this value. To avoid this, you can disable date formatting

demo date

Here, cell B1 contains the string "3.2" and cell B2 contains the date 2024-02-03, but both cells are set to the date format

$excel = Excel::open($file);
// default mode
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cell['B1']; // -2208798720 - the library tries to interpret the number 3.2 as a timestamp
echo $cell['B2']; // 1706918400 - timestamp of 2024-02-03

// date formatter is on
$excel->dateFormatter(true);
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cell['B1']; // '03.01.1900'
echo $cell['B2']; // '3.2'

// date formatter is off
$excel->dateFormatter(false);
$cells = $sheet->readCells();
echo $cell['B1']; // '3.2'
echo $cell['B2']; // 1706918400 - timestamp of 2024-02-03

Images functions

// Returns count images on all sheets
$excel->countImages();

// Returns count images on sheet
$sheet->countImages();

// Returns image list of sheet
$sheet->getImageList();

// Returns image list of specified row
$sheet->getImageListByRow($rowNumber);

// Returns TRUE if the specified cell has an image
$sheet->hasImage($cellAddress);

// Returns mime type of image in the specified cell (or NULL)
$sheet->getImageMimeType($cellAddress);

// Returns inner name of image in the specified cell (or NULL)
$sheet->getImageName($cellAddress);

// Returns an image from the cell as a blob (if exists) or NULL
$sheet->getImageBlob($cellAddress);

// Writes an image from the cell to the specified filename
$sheet->saveImage($cellAddress, $fullFilenamePath);

// Writes an image from the cell to the specified directory
$sheet->saveImageTo($cellAddress, $fullDirectoryPath);

Cell value types

The library tries to determine the types of cell values, and in most cases it does it right. Therefore, you get numeric or string values. Date values are returned as a timestamp by default. But you can change this behavior by setting the date format (see the formatting options for the date() php function).

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$result = $excel->readCells();
print_r($result);

The above example will output:

Array
(
    [B2] => -2205187200
    [B3] => 6614697600
    [B4] => -6845212800
)

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$excel->setDateFormat('Y-m-d');
$result = $excel->readCells();
print_r($result);

The above example will output:

Array
(
    [B2] => '1900-02-14'
    [B3] => '2179-08-12'
    [B4] => '1753-01-31'
)

How to get complete info about the cell style

Usually read functions return just cell values, but you can read the values with styles. In this case, for each cell, not a scalar value will be returned, but an array like ['v' => scalar_value, 's' => style_array, 'f' => formula]

$excel = Excel::open($file);

$sheet = $excel->sheet();

$rows = $sheet->readRowsWithStyles();
$columns = $sheet->readColumnsWithStyles();
$cells = $sheet->readCellsWithStyles();

$cells = $sheet->readCellsWithStyles();

Or you can read styles only (without values)

$cells = $sheet->readCellStyles();
/*
array (
  'format' => 
  array (
    'format-num-id' => 0,
    'format-pattern' => 'General',
  ),
  'font' => 
  array (
    'font-size' => '10',
    'font-name' => 'Arial',
    'font-family' => '2',
    'font-charset' => '1',
  ),
  'fill' => 
  array (
    'fill-pattern' => 'solid',
    'fill-color' => '#9FC63C',
  ),
  'border' => 
  array (
    'border-left-style' => NULL,
    'border-right-style' => NULL,
    'border-top-style' => NULL,
    'border-bottom-style' => NULL,
    'border-diagonal-style' => NULL,
  ),
)
 */
$cells = $sheet->readCellStyles(true);
/*
array (
  'format-num-id' => 0,
  'format-pattern' => 'General',
  'font-size' => '10',
  'font-name' => 'Arial',
  'font-family' => '2',
  'font-charset' => '1',
  'fill-pattern' => 'solid',
  'fill-color' => '#9FC63C',
  'border-left-style' => NULL,
  'border-right-style' => NULL,
  'border-top-style' => NULL,
  'border-bottom-style' => NULL,
  'border-diagonal-style' => NULL,
)
 */

But we do not recommend using these methods with large files

Retrieve data validation rules

Every sheet in your XLSX file can contain a set of data validation rules. To retrieve them, you can imply call getDataValidations on your sheet

$excel = Excel::open($file);

$sheet = $excel->sheet();

$validations = $sheet->getDataValidations();
/*
[
  [
    'type' => 'list',
    'sqref' => 'E2:E527',
    'formula1' => '"Berlin,Cape Town,Mexico City,Moscow,Sydney,Tokyo"',
    'formula2' => null, 
  ], [
    'type' => 'decimal',
    'sqref' => 'G2:G527',
    'formula1' => '0.0',
    'formula2' => '999999.0',
  ],
]
*/

Column Widths

Retrieve the width of a specific column in a sheet:

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$sheet = $excel->selectSheet('SheetName');

// Get the width of column 1 (column 'A')
$columnWidth = $sheet->getColumnWidth(1);

echo $columnWidth; // Example: 11.85

Row Heights

Retrieve the height of a specific row in a sheet:

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$sheet = $excel->selectSheet('SheetName');

// Get the height of row 1
$rowHeight = $sheet->getRowHeight(1);

echo $rowHeight; // Example: 15

Freeze Pane Info

Retrieve the freeze pane info for a sheet:

$excel = Excel::open($file);
$sheet = $excel->selectSheet('SheetName');

// Get the freeze pane configuration
$freezePaneConfig = $sheet->getFreezePaneInfo();

print_r($freezePaneConfig);
/*
Example Output:
Array
(
    [xSplit] => 0
    [ySplit] => 1
    [topLeftCell] => 'A2'
)
*/

Tab Color Info

Retrieve the tab color info for a sheet:

Copy code
$excel = Excel::open($file);
$sheet = $excel->selectSheet('SheetName');

// Get the tab color configuration
$tabColorConfig = $sheet->getTabColorInfo();

print_r($tabColorConfig);
/*
Example Output:
Array
(
    [theme] => '2'
    [tint] => '-0.499984740745262'
)
*/

Info about merged cells

You can use the following methods:

  • Sheet::getMergedCells() -- Returns all merged ranges
  • Sheet::isMerged(string $cellAddress) -- Checks if a cell is merged
  • Sheet::mergedRange(string $cellAddress) -- Returns merge range of specified cell

For example

if ($sheet->isMerged('B3')) {
    $range = $sheet->mergedRange('B3');
}
