xl-link 0.132

Chart demo

Here’s a teaser of what xl_link can do when combined with xlsx writer (for example):

Setup

>>> f = XLDataFrame(index=('Breakfast', 'Lunch', 'Dinner', 'Midnight Snack'),
                    data={'Mon': (15, 20, 12, 3),
                          'Tues': (5, 16, 3, 0),
                          'Weds': (3, 22, 2, 8),
                          'Thur': (6, 7, 1, 9)})

Create chart with xl_link

>>> xlmap = f.to_excel('Chart.xlsx', sheet_name="XLLinked", engine='openpyxl')
>>> xl_linked_chart = xlmap.create_chart('bar', title="With xl_link", x_axis_name="Meal", y_axis_name="Calories", subtype='col')
>>> xlmap.sheet.add_chart(xl_linked_chart, 'F1')
>>> xlmap.writer.save()

Which produces this chart:

Formatting demo

Applying conditional formatting to a table is as easy as:

Setup
>>> import numpy as np
>>> xy_data = XLDataFrame(data={'Y1': np.random.rand(10) * 10,
                                'Y2': np.random.rand(10) * 10})

Create table with conditional formatting

>>> xlmap = xy_data.to_excel("ConditionalFormatting.xlsx", engine='xlsxwriter')
>>> xlmap.sheet.conditional_format(xlmap.data.range, # position of data within spreadsheet
                                   {'type': '3_color_scale',
                                    'min_type': 'num', 'min_value': xlmap.f.min().min(), 'min_color': 'green',
                                    'mid_type': 'num', 'mid_value': xlmap.f.mean().mean(), 'mid_color': 'yellow',
                                    'max_type': 'num', 'max_value': xlmap.f.max().max(), 'max_color': 'red'})
>>> xlmap.writer.save()

Which looks like:
