Sheets
Creating a sheet
To create a new sheet inside our newly created file, use ->sheet('Sheetname').
Excel::create('Filename', function($excel) {
$excel->sheet('Sheetname', function($sheet) {
// Sheet manipulation
});
})->export('xls');
Creating multiple sheets
You can set as many sheets as you like inside the file:
Excel::create('Filename', function($excel) {
// Our first sheet
$excel->sheet('First sheet', function($sheet) {
});
// Our second sheet
$excel->sheet('Second sheet', function($sheet) {
});
})->export('xls');
Changing properties
There are a couple of properties we can change inside the closure. Most of them are set to the config values by default. See app/config/packages/maatwebsite/excel/config.php.
Excel::create('Filename', function($excel) {
$excel->sheet('Sheetname', function($sheet) {
$sheet->setOrientation('landscape');
});
})->export('xls');
Go to the reference guide to see a list of available properties.
Default page margin
It's possible to set the default page margin inside the config file excel::export.sheets.
It accepts boolean, single value or array.
To manually set the page margin you can use: ->setPageMargin()
// Set top, right, bottom, left
$sheet->setPageMargin(array(
0.25, 0.30, 0.25, 0.30
));
// Set all margins
$sheet->setPageMargin(0.25);
Password protecting a sheet
A sheet can be password protected with $sheet->protect():
// Default protect
$sheet->protect('password');
// Advanced protect
$sheet->protect('password', function(\PHPExcel_Worksheet_Protection $protection) {
$protection->setSort(true);
});
