If your company has embedded pyexcel and its components into a revenue generating product, please support me on patreon or bounty source to maintain the project and develop it further.
If you are an individual, you are welcome to support me too and for however long you feel like. As my backer, you will receive early access to pyexcel related contents.
And your issues will get prioritized if you would like to become my patreon as pyexcel pro user.
With your financial support, I will be able to invest a little bit more time in coding, documentation and writing interesting posts.

pyexcel-handsontable is a rendering plugin to pyexcel and renders pyexcel.Sheet and pyexcel.Book into a handsontable in your web page. As long as you have a browser, you could view the data. However, please note that this library does not aim to replace any current excel softwares, such as Micorsoft Office. But it aims to extends the capability of a Python user/developer in viewing plain data.
Main features:
- transform your excel sheets into excel alike html file.
- embed your excel sheets into your web page.
- show your data like excel in jupyter notebook (added in 0.0.2).
Here is one liner to use it with pyexcel:
import pyexcel as p
p.save_as(file_name='your.xls', dest_file_name='your.handsontable.html')
Alternatively, you can use this library with pyexcel cli module:
$ pip install pyexcel-cli $ pyexcel transcode your.xls your.handsontable.html
Please remember to give this file suffix always: handsontable.html. It is because handsontable.html triggers this plugin in pyexcel.
You can install pyexcel-handsontable via pip:
$ pip install pyexcel-handsontable
or clone it and install it:
$ git clone https://github.com/pyexcel-renderers/pyexcel-handsontable.git
$ cd pyexcel-handsontable
$ python setup.py install
Development steps for code changes
- git clone https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel-handsontable.git
- cd pyexcel-handsontable
Upgrade your setup tools and pip. They are needed for development and testing only:
- pip install --upgrade setuptools pip
Then install relevant development requirements:
- pip install -r rnd_requirements.txt # if such a file exists
- pip install -r requirements.txt
- pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
Once you have finished your changes, please provide test case(s), relevant documentation and update CHANGELOG.rst.
Note
As to rnd_requirements.txt, usually, it is created when a dependent library is not released. Once the dependecy is installed (will be released), the future version of the dependency in the requirements.txt will be valid.
Although nose and doctest are both used in code testing, it is adviable that unit tests are put in tests. doctest is incorporated only to make sure the code examples in documentation remain valid across different development releases.
On Linux/Unix systems, please launch your tests like this:
$ make
On Windows systems, please issue this command:
> test.bat
Additional steps are required:
- pip install moban
- git clone https://github.com/moremoban/setupmobans.git # generic setup
- git clone https://github.com/pyexcel/pyexcel-commons.git commons
- make your changes in .moban.d directory, then issue command moban
Many information that are shared across pyexcel projects, such as: this developer guide, license info, etc. are stored in pyexcel-commons project.
.moban.d stores the specific meta data for the library.
- Has Test cases written
- Has all code lines tested
- Passes all Travis CI builds
- Has fair amount of documentation if your change is complex
- Please update CHANGELOG.rst
- Please add yourself to CONTRIBUTORS.rst
