Microsoft PowerPoint basic usage example:
const officegen = require('officegen')
const fs = require('fs')
// Create an empty PowerPoint object:
let pptx = officegen('pptx')
// Officegen calling this function after finishing to generate the pptx document:
pptx.on('finalize', function(written) {
console.log(
'Finish to create a Microsoft PowerPoint document.'
)
})
// Officegen calling this function to report errors:
pptx.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
// Let's add a title slide:
let slide = pptx.makeTitleSlide('Officegen', 'Example to a PowerPoint document')
// Pie chart slide example:
slide = pptx.makeNewSlide()
slide.name = 'Pie Chart slide'
slide.back = 'ffff00'
slide.addChart(
{
title: 'My production',
renderType: 'pie',
data:
[
{
name: 'Oil',
labels: ['Czech Republic', 'Ireland', 'Germany', 'Australia', 'Austria', 'UK', 'Belgium'],
values: [301, 201, 165, 139, 128, 99, 60],
colors: ['ff0000', '00ff00', '0000ff', 'ffff00', 'ff00ff', '00ffff', '000000']
}
]
}
)
// Let's generate the PowerPoint document into a file:
let out = fs.createWriteStream('example.pptx')
out.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
// Async call to generate the output file:
pptx.generate(out)
Microsoft Word basic usage example:
const officegen = require('officegen')
const fs = require('fs')
// Create an empty Word object:
let docx = officegen('docx')
// Officegen calling this function after finishing to generate the docx document:
docx.on('finalize', function(written) {
console.log(
'Finish to create a Microsoft Word document.'
)
})
// Officegen calling this function to report errors:
pptx.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
// Create a new paragraph:
let pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Simple')
pObj.addText(' with color', { color: '000088' })
pObj.addText(' and back color.', { color: '00ffff', back: '000088' })
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Since ')
pObj.addText('officegen 0.2.12', {
back: '00ffff',
shdType: 'pct12',
shdColor: 'ff0000'
}) // Use pattern in the background.
pObj.addText(' you can do ')
pObj.addText('more cool ', { highlight: true }) // Highlight!
pObj.addText('stuff!', { highlight: 'darkGreen' }) // Different highlight color.
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Even add ')
pObj.addText('external link', { link: 'https://github.com' })
pObj.addText('!')
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Bold + underline', { bold: true, underline: true })
pObj = docx.createP({ align: 'center' })
pObj.addText('Center this text', {
border: 'dotted',
borderSize: 12,
borderColor: '88CCFF'
})
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.options.align = 'right'
pObj.addText('Align this text to the right.')
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Those two lines are in the same paragraph,')
pObj.addLineBreak()
pObj.addText('but they are separated by a line break.')
docx.putPageBreak()
pObj = docx.createP()
pObj.addText('Fonts face only.', { font_face: 'Arial' })
pObj.addText(' Fonts face and size.', { font_face: 'Arial', font_size: 40 })
docx.putPageBreak()
pObj = docx.createP()
// We can even add images:
pObj.addImage('some-image.png')
// Let's generate the Word document into a file:
let out = fs.createWriteStream('example.docx')
out.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
// Async call to generate the output file:
docx.generate(out)
Microsoft Excel basic usage example:
const officegen = require('officegen')
const fs = require('fs')
// Create an empty Excel object:
let xlsx = officegen('xlsx')
// Officegen calling this function after finishing to generate the xlsx document:
xlsx.on('finalize', function(written) {
console.log(
'Finish to create a Microsoft Excel document.'
)
})
// Officegen calling this function to report errors:
xlsx.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
let sheet = xlsx.makeNewSheet()
sheet.name = 'Officegen Excel'
// Add data using setCell:
sheet.setCell('E7', 42)
sheet.setCell('I1', -3)
sheet.setCell('I2', 3.141592653589)
sheet.setCell('G102', 'Hello World!')
// The direct option - two-dimensional array:
sheet.data[0] = []
sheet.data[0][0] = 1
sheet.data[1] = []
sheet.data[1][3] = 'some'
sheet.data[1][4] = 'data'
sheet.data[1][5] = 'goes'
sheet.data[1][6] = 'here'
sheet.data[2] = []
sheet.data[2][5] = 'more text'
sheet.data[2][6] = 900
sheet.data[6] = []
sheet.data[6][2] = 1972
// Let's generate the Excel document into a file:
let out = fs.createWriteStream('example.xlsx')
out.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err)
})
// Async call to generate the output file:
