openpyxl Description

Openpyxl is an open-source Python library that can read/write Excel 2010 files xlsx/xlsm/xltx/xltm. It was created because there wasn't an existing library that could natively read/write Python in the Office Open XML format. Openpyxl was originally built on PHPExcel. All credit to the PHPExcel team. Openpyxl doesn't guard against quadratic blowup attacks or billion laughs XML attacks by default. Defusedxml can be installed to protect against these attacks. Install openpyxl with pip This should be done in a Python virtualenv with no system packages. Sometimes, you may want to work with a particular version's checkout. This could be true if bugs have been fixed, but no release has been made. To get started with openpyxl, you don't need to create a file in the filesystem. Simply import the Workbook class to get started. When a sheet is created, it automatically gives it a name. You can give a worksheet a name to make it a key in the workbook.
