First, make sure you have Composer installed on your system. If not, you can download it from getcomposer.org.

Then, create a new PHP project or navigate to your existing project directory and install PhpSpreadsheet using Composer:

PHP:
composer require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet

Once installed, you can use the following example code to read an .xlsx file:


PHP:
<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php'; // Include the Composer autoload file

use PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory;

// Path to your .xlsx file
$excelFile = 'path/to/your/file.xlsx';

// Load the spreadsheet
$spreadsheet = IOFactory::load($excelFile);

// Select the first worksheet
$worksheet = $spreadsheet->getActiveSheet();

// Get the highest row and column to iterate through
$highestRow = $worksheet->getHighestRow();
$highestColumn = $worksheet->getHighestColumn();

// Iterate through each row of the worksheet
for ($row = 1; $row <= $highestRow; $row++) {
    // Read a row of data into an array
    $rowData = $worksheet->rangeToArray('A' . $row . ':' . $highestColumn . $row, NULL, TRUE, FALSE);

    // Process $rowData as needed
    var_dump($rowData);
}

  • autoload.php: This file is generated by Composer and includes the autoload functionality for all installed libraries, including PhpSpreadsheet.
  • IOFactory::load($excelFile): Loads the Excel file specified by $excelFile.
  • getActiveSheet(): Retrieves the first worksheet in the Excel file.
  • getHighestRow() and getHighestColumn(): Determine the dimensions of the data in the worksheet.
  • rangeToArray(): Reads a range of cells into a PHP array.
