NPOI extensions for target framework net45 and netstandard2.0.

There' a lot of userful extensions for you, core fetures are as follows:

• mapping a excel file data to a DataTable or List<TEntity>
• export IEnumerable<TEntity> or DataTable data to Excel file or Excel file bytes or even write excel file stream to your stream
• export IEnumerable<TEntity> or DataTable data to csv file or bytes.
• custom configuration/mappings by Attribute or FluentAPI(inspired by FluentExcel)
• great flexibility by fluent InputFormatter/OutputFormatter/ColumnInputFormatter/ColumnOutputFormatter

1. Export list/dataTable to Excel/csv

   var entities = new List<Entity>();
   entities.ToExcelFile(string excelPath);
   entities.ToExcelBytes(ExcelFormat excelFormat);
   entities.ToCsvFile(string csvPath);
   entities.ToCsvBytes();

2. Read Excel/csv to List

   // read excel first sheet content to a List<T>
   var entityList = ExcelHelper.ToEntityList<T>(string excelPath);
   
   // read excel sheetIndex sheet content to a List<T>
   // you can custom header row index via sheet attribute or fluent api HasSheet
   var entityList1 = ExcelHelper.ToEntityList<T>(string excelPath, int sheetIndex);
   
   var entityList2 = CsvHelper.ToEntityList<T>(string csvPath);
   var entityList3 = CsvHelper.ToEntityList<T>(byte[] csvBytes);

3. Read Excel/csv to DataTable

   // read excel to dataTable directly,by default read the first sheet content
   var dataTable = ExcelHelper.ToDataTable(string excelPath);
   
   // read excel workbook's sheetIndex sheet to dataTable directly
   var dataTableOfSheetIndex = ExcelHelper.ToDataTable(string excelPath, int sheetIndex);
   
   // read excel workbook's sheetIndex sheet to dataTable,custom headerRowIndex
   var dataTableOfSheetIndex = ExcelHelper.ToDataTable(string excelPath, int sheetIndex, int headerRowIndex);
   
   // read excel to dataTable use mapping relations and settings from typeof(T),by default read the first sheet content
   var dataTableT = ExcelHelper.ToDataTable<T>(string excelPath);
   
   // read csv file data to dataTable
   var dataTable1 = CsvHelper.ToDataTable(string csvFilePath);

More Api here: https://weihanli.github.io/WeihanLi.Npoi/docs/api/WeihanLi.Npoi.html

1. Attributes

   Add ColumnAttribute on the property of the entity which you used for export or import

   Add SheetAttribute on the entity which you used for export or import,you can set the StartRowIndex on your need(by default it is 1)

   for example:

   public class TestEntity
   {
       [Column("Id")]
       public int PKID { get; set; }
   
       [Column("Bill Title")]
       public string BillTitle { get; set; }
   
       [Column("Bill Details")]
       public string BillDetails { get; set; }
   
       [Column("CreatedBy")]
       public string CreatedBy { get; set; }
   
       [Column("CreatedTime")]
       public DateTime CreatedTime { get; set; }
   }
   
   public class TestEntity1
   {
       [Column("Username")]
       public string Username { get; set; }
   
       [Column(IsIgnored = true)]
       public string PasswordHash { get; set; }
   
       [Column("Amount")]
       public decimal Amount { get; set; } = 1000M;
   
       [Column("WechatOpenId")]
       public string WechatOpenId { get; set; }
   
       [Column("IsActive")]
       public bool IsActive { get; set; }
   }

2. FluentApi (Recommend)

   You can use FluentApi also

   for example:

   var setting = FluentSettings.For<TestEntity>();
   // ExcelSetting
   setting.HasAuthor("WeihanLi")
       .HasTitle("WeihanLi.Npoi test")
       .HasDescription("WeihanLi.Npoi test")
       .HasSubject("WeihanLi.Npoi test");
   
   setting.HasSheetConfiguration(0, "SystemSettingsList", true);
   // setting.HasSheetConfiguration(1, "SystemSettingsList", 1, true);
   
   // setting.HasFilter(0, 1).HasFreezePane(0, 1, 2, 1);
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.SettingId)
       .HasColumnIndex(0);
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.SettingName)
       .HasColumnTitle("SettingName")
       .HasColumnIndex(1);
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.DisplayName)
       .HasOutputFormatter((entity, displayName) => $"AAA_{entity.SettingName}_{displayName}")
       .HasInputFormatter((entity, originVal) => originVal.Split(new[] { '_' })[2])
       .HasColumnTitle("DisplayName")
       .HasColumnIndex(2);
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.SettingValue)
       .HasColumnTitle("SettingValue")
       .HasColumnIndex(3);
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.CreatedTime)
       .HasColumnTitle("CreatedTime")
       .HasColumnIndex(4)
       .HasColumnWidth(10)
       .HasColumnFormatter("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.CreatedBy)
       .HasColumnInputFormatter(x => x += "_test")
       .HasColumnIndex(4)
       .HasColumnTitle("CreatedBy");
   
   setting.Property(x => x.Enabled)
       .HasColumnInputFormatter(val => "Enabled".Equals(val))
       .HasColumnOutputFormatter(v => v ? "Enabled" : "Disabled");
   
   setting.Property("HiddenProp")
       .HasOutputFormatter((entity, val) => $"HiddenProp_{entity.PKID}");
   
   setting.Property(_ => _.PKID).Ignored();
   setting.Property(_ => _.UpdatedBy).Ignored();
   setting.Property(_ => _.UpdatedTime).Ignored();

more usage:

1. Get a workbook

   // load excel workbook from file
   var workbook = LoadExcel(string excelPath);
   
   // prepare a workbook accounting to excelPath
   var workbook = PrepareWorkbook(string excelPath);
   
   // prepare a workbook accounting to excelPath and custom excel settings
   var workbook = PrepareWorkbook(string excelPath, ExcelSetting excelSetting);
   
   // prepare a workbook whether *.xls file
   var workbook = PrepareWorkbook(bool isXls);
   
   // prepare a workbook whether *.xls file and custom excel setting
   var workbook = PrepareWorkbook(bool isXlsx, ExcelSetting excelSetting);
