PowerShell Import-Excel
|
||
-
|
||
|
||
This PowerShell Module allows you to read and write Excel files without installing Microsoft Excel on your system. No need to bother with the cumbersome Excel COM-objects thanks to the .NET EPPlus DLL (http://epplus.codeplex.com/) which is included in the module. Creating Tables, Pivot Tables, Charts and much more has just become a lot easier.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Installation
|
||
-
|
||
#### [PowerShell V5](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=50395) and Later
|
||
You can install the `ImportExcel` module directly from the PowerShell Gallery
|
||
|
||
* [Recommended] Install to your personal PowerShell Modules folder
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
Install-Module ImportExcel -scope CurrentUser
|
||
```
|
||
* [Requires Elevation] Install for Everyone (computer PowerShell Modules folder)
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
Install-Module ImportExcel
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### PowerShell V4 and Earlier
|
||
To install to your personal modules folder (e.g. ~\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules), run:
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
iex (new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://raw.github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/master/Install.ps1')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
# What's new
|
||
#### 10/4/2017
|
||
Thanks to https://github.com/ili101 :
|
||
- Fix Bug, Unable to find type [PSPlot]
|
||
- Fix Bug, AutoFilter with TableName create corrupted Excel file.
|
||
|
||
#### 10/2/2017
|
||
Thanks to [Jeremy Brun](https://github.com/jeremytbrun)
|
||
Fixed issues related to use of -Title parameter combined with column formatting parameters.
|
||
- [Issue #182](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/issues/182)
|
||
- [Issue #89](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/issues/89)
|
||
|
||
#### 9/28/2017 (Version 4.0.1)
|
||
- Added a new parameter called `Password` to import password protected files
|
||
- Added even more `Pester` tests for a more robust and bug free module
|
||
- Renamed parameter 'TopRow' to 'StartRow'
|
||
This allows us to be more concise when new parameters ('StartColumn', ..) will be added in the future Your code will not break after the update, because we added an alias for backward compatibility
|
||
|
||
Special thanks to [robinmalik](https://github.com/robinmalik) for providing us with [the code](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/issues/174) to implement this new feature. A high five to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1) for the implementation.
|
||
|
||
#### 9/12/2017 (Version 4.0.0)
|
||
|
||
Super thanks and hat tip to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1). There is now a new and improved `Import-Excel`, not only in functionality, but also improved readability, examples and more. Not only that, he's been running it in production in his company for a number of weeks!
|
||
|
||
*Added* `Update-FirstObjectProperties` Updates the first object to contain all the properties of the object with the most properties in the array. Check out the help.
|
||
|
||
|
||
***Breaking Changes***: Due to a big portion of the code that is rewritten some slightly different behavior can be expected from the `Import-Excel` function. This is especially true for importing empty Excel files with or without using the `TopRow` parameter. To make sure that your code is still valid, please check the examples in the help or the accompanying `Pester` test file.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Moving forward, we are planning to include automatic testing with the help of `Pester`, `Appveyor` and `Travis`. From now on any changes in the module will have to be accompanied by the corresponding `Pester` tests to avoid breakages of code and functionality. This is in preparation for new features coming down the road.
|
||
|
||
#### 7/3/2017
|
||
Thanks to [Mikkel Nordberg](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikkelnordberg). He contributed a `ConvertTo-ExcelXlsx`. To use it, Excel needs to be installed. The function converts the older Excel file format ending in `.xls` to the new format ending in `.xlsx`.
|
||
|
||
#### 6/15/2017
|
||
Huge thank you to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1)! Refactoring of code, adding help, adding features, fixing bugs. Specifically this long outstanding one:
|
||
|
||
[Export-Excel: Numeric values not correct](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/issues/168)
|
||
|
||
It is fantastic to work with people like `DarkLite1` in the community, to help make the module so much better. A hat to you.
|
||
|
||
Another shout out to [Damian Reeves](https://twitter.com/DamReev)! His questions turn into great features. He asked if it was possible to import an Excel worksheet and transform the data into SQL `INSERT` statements. We can now answer that question with a big YES!
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
ConvertFrom-ExcelToSQLInsert People .\testSQLGen.xlsx
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
INSERT INTO People ('First', 'Last', 'The Zip') Values('John', 'Doe', '12345');
|
||
INSERT INTO People ('First', 'Last', 'The Zip') Values('Jim', 'Doe', '12345');
|
||
INSERT INTO People ('First', 'Last', 'The Zip') Values('Tom', 'Doe', '12345');
|
||
INSERT INTO People ('First', 'Last', 'The Zip') Values('Harry', 'Doe', '12345');
|
||
INSERT INTO People ('First', 'Last', 'The Zip') Values('Jane', 'Doe', '12345');
|
||
```
|
||
## Bonus Points
|
||
Use the underlying `ConvertFrom-ExcelData` function and you can use a scriptblock to format the data however you want.
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
ConvertFrom-ExcelData .\testSQLGen.xlsx {
|
||
param($propertyNames, $record)
|
||
|
||
$reportRecord = @()
|
||
foreach ($pn in $propertyNames) {
|
||
$reportRecord += "{0}: {1}" -f $pn, $record.$pn
|
||
}
|
||
$reportRecord +=""
|
||
$reportRecord -join "`r`n"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
Generates
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
First: John
|
||
Last: Doe
|
||
The Zip: 12345
|
||
|
||
First: Jim
|
||
Last: Doe
|
||
The Zip: 12345
|
||
|
||
First: Tom
|
||
Last: Doe
|
||
The Zip: 12345
|
||
|
||
First: Harry
|
||
Last: Doe
|
||
The Zip: 12345
|
||
|
||
First: Jane
|
||
Last: Doe
|
||
The Zip: 12345
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### 2/2/2017
|
||
Thank you to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1) for more updates
|
||
* TableName with parameter validation, throws an error when the TableName:
|
||
- Starts with something else then a letter
|
||
- Is NULL or empty
|
||
- Contains spaces
|
||
- Numeric parsing now uses `CurrentInfo` to use the system settings
|
||
|
||
#### 2/14/2017
|
||
Big thanks to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1) for some great updates
|
||
* `-DataOnly` switch added to `Import-Excel`. When used it will only generate objects for rows that contain text values, not for empty rows or columns.
|
||
|
||
* `Get-ExcelWorkBookInfo` - retrieves information of an Excel workbook.
|
||
```
|
||
Get-ExcelWorkbookInfo .\Test.xlsx

#### 12/22/2016
|
||
- Added `-Now` switch. This short cuts the process, automatically creating a temp file and enables the `-Show`, `-AutoFilter`, `-AutoSize` switches.
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
Get-Process | Select Company, Handles | Export-Excel -Now
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- Added ScriptBlocks for coloring cells. Check out [Examples](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/tree/master/Examples/FormatCellStyles)
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
Get-Process |
|
||
Select-Object Company,Handles,PM, NPM|
|
||
Export-Excel $xlfile -Show -AutoSize -CellStyleSB {
|
||
param(
|
||
$workSheet,
|
||
$totalRows,
|
||
$lastColumn
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
Set-CellStyle $workSheet 1 $LastColumn Solid Cyan
|
||
|
||
foreach($row in (2..$totalRows | Where-Object {$_ % 2 -eq 0})) {
|
||
Set-CellStyle $workSheet $row $LastColumn Solid Gray
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
foreach($row in (2..$totalRows | Where-Object {$_ % 2 -eq 1})) {
|
||
Set-CellStyle $workSheet $row $LastColumn Solid LightGray
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 9/28/2016
|
||
[Fixed](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/pull/126) PowerShell 3.0 compatibility. Thanks to [headsphere](https://github.com/headsphere). He used `$obj.PSObject.Methods[$target]` snytax to make it backward compatible. PS v4.0 and later allow `$obj.$target`.

#### 4/30/2016
|
||
Huge thank you to [Willie Möller](https://github.com/W1M0R)
|
||
|
||
* He added a version check so the PowerShell Classes don't cause issues for downlevel version of PowerShell
|
||
* He also contributed the first Pester tests for the module. Super! Check them out, they'll be the way tests will be implemented going forward
|
||
|
||
#### 4/18/2016
|
||
Thanks to [Paul Williams](https://github.com/pauldalewilliams) for this feature. Now data can be transposed to columns for better charting.

And here is the new chart view
|
||
|
||
#### 4/7/2016
|
||
Made more methods fluent
|
||
```
|
||
$t=Get-Range 0 5 .2
|
||
|
||
$t2=$t|%{$_*$_}
|
||

Also check out how you can create a table and then with Excel notation, index into the data for charting `"Impressions[A]"`
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$data = @"
|
||
A,B,C,Date
|
||
2,1,1,2016-03-29

|
||
```
|
||
$data |
|
||
Export-Excel -Path $file -Show -NumberFormat '[Blue]$#,##0.00;[Red]-$#,##0.00'
|
||
```

||
|
||
## Result
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 1/18/2016
|

|
||
* Added `Conditional Text Formatting`. [Boe Prox](https://twitter.com/proxb) posted about [HTML Reporting, Part 2: Take Your Reporting a Step Further](https://mcpmag.com/articles/2016/01/14/html-reporting-part-2.aspx) and colorized cells. Great idea, now part of the PowerShell Excel module.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 1/7/2016
|
||
* Added `Get-ExcelSheetInfo` - Great contribution from *Johan Åkerström* check him out on [GitHub](https://github.com/CosmosKey) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/neptune443)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
* Added `NoLegend`, `Show-Category`, `ShowPercent` for all charts including Pivot Charts
|
||
* Updated PieChart, BarChart, ColumnChart and Line chart to work with the pipeline and added `NoLegend`, `Show-Category`, `ShowPercent`
|
||
|
||
#### 12/17/2015
|
||
|
||
These new features open the door for really sophisticated work sheet creation.
|
||
|
||
Stay tuned for a [blog post](http://www.dougfinke.com/blog/) and examples.
|
||
|
||
***Quick List***
|
||

Big bug fix for version 3.0 PowerShell folks!
|
||
|
||
This technique fails in 3.0 and works in 4.0 and later.
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
$m="substring"
|
||
"hello".$m(2,1)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Adding `.invoke` works in 3.0 and later.
|
||
|
||
```PowerShell
|
||
$m="substring"
|
||
"hello".$m.invoke(2,1)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
A ***big thank you*** to [DarkLite1](https://github.com/DarkLite1) for adding the help to Export-Excel.
|
||
|
||
Added `-HeaderRow` parameter. Sometimes the heading does not start in Row 1.
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 10/16/2015
|
||
|
||
Fixes [Export-Excel generates corrupt Excel file](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/issues/46)
|
||
|
||
#### 10/15/2015
|
||
|
||
`Import-Excel` has a new parameter `NoHeader`. If data in the sheet does not have headers and you don't want to supply your own, `Import-Excel` will generate the property name.
|
||
|
||
`Import-Excel` now returns `.Value` rather than `.Text`
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### 10/1/2015
|
||
|
||
Merged ValidateSet for Encoding and Extension. Thank you [Irwin Strachan](https://github.com/irwins).
|
||
|
||
#### 9/30/2015
|
||
|
||
Export-Excel can now handle data that is **not** an object
|
||
|
||
echo a b c 1 $true 2.1 1/1/2015 | Export-Excel c:\temp\test.xlsx -Show
|
||
Or
|
||
|
||
dir -Name | Export-Excel c:\temp\test.xlsx -Show
|
||
|
||
#### 9/25/2015
|
||
|
||
**Hide worksheets**
|
||
Got a great request from [forensicsguy20012004](https://github.com/forensicsguy20012004) to hide worksheets. You create a few pivotables, generate charts and then pivotable worksheets don't need to be visible.
|
||
|
||
`Export-Excel` now has a `-HideSheet` parameter that takes and array of worksheet names and hides them.
|
||
|
||
##### Example
|
||
Here, you create four worksheets named `PM`,`Handles`,`Services` and `Files`.
|
||
|
||
The last line creates the `Files` sheet and then hides the `Handles`,`Services` sheets.
|
||
|
||
$p = Get-Process
|
||
|
||
$p|select company, pm | Export-Excel $xlFile -WorkSheetname PM
|
||
$p|select company, handles| Export-Excel $xlFile -WorkSheetname Handles
|
||
Get-Service| Export-Excel $xlFile -WorkSheetname Services
|
||
|
||
dir -File | Export-Excel $xlFile -WorkSheetname Files -Show -HideSheet Handles, Services
|
||
|
||
|
||
**Note** There is a bug in EPPlus that does not let you hide the first worksheet created. Hopefully it'll resolved soon.
|
||
|
||
#### 9/11/2015
|
||
|
||
Added Conditional formatting. See [TryConditional.ps1](https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/blob/master/TryConditional.ps1) as an example.

|
||
Examples
|
||
-
|

`gsv | Export-Excel .\test.xlsx -WorkSheetname Services`
|
||
|
||
`dir -file | Export-Excel .\test.xlsx -WorkSheetname Files`
|
||
|
||
`ps | Export-Excel .\test.xlsx -WorkSheetname Processes -IncludePivotTable -Show -PivotRows Company -PivotData PM`
|
||
|
||
#### Convert (All or Some) Excel Sheets to Text files
|
||
|
||
Reads each sheet in TestSheets.xlsx and outputs it to the data directory as the sheet name with the extension .txt
|
||
|
||
ConvertFrom-ExcelSheet .\TestSheets.xlsx .\data
|
||
|
||
Reads and outputs sheets like Sheet10 and Sheet20 form TestSheets.xlsx and outputs it to the data directory as the sheet name with the extension .txt
|
||
|
||
ConvertFrom-ExcelSheet .\TestSheets.xlsx .\data sheet?0
|
||
|
||
#### Example Adding a Title
|
||
You can set the pattern, size and of if the title is bold.
|
||
|
||
$p=@{
|
||
Title = "Process Report as of $(Get-Date)"
|
||
TitleFillPattern = "LightTrellis"
|
||
TitleSize = 18
|
||
TitleBold = $true
|
||
|
||
Path = "$pwd\testExport.xlsx"
|
||
Show = $true
|
||
AutoSize = $true
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
Get-Process |
|
||
Where Company | Select Company, PM |
|
||
Export-Excel @p
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Example Export-MultipleExcelSheets
|
||
|
||
|
||
$p = Get-Process
|
||
|
||
$DataToGather = @{
|
||
PM = {$p|select company, pm}
|
||
Handles = {$p|select company, handles}
|
||
Services = {gsv}
|
||
Files = {dir -File}
|
||
Albums = {(Invoke-RestMethod http://www.dougfinke.com/PowerShellfordevelopers/albums.js)}
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
Export-MultipleExcelSheets -Show -AutoSize .\testExport.xlsx $DataToGather
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
***NOTE*** If the sheet exists when using *-WorkSheetname* parameter, it will be deleted and then added with the new data.

## Known Issues
|
||
|
||
* Using `-IncludePivotTable`, if that pivot table name exists, you'll get an error.
|
||
* Investigating a solution
|
||
* *Workaround* delete the Excel file first, then do the export
