What is does

This extension brings the "PhpSpreadsheet library" PHP classes "phpoffice/phpspreadsheet", formerly phpExcel, to TYPO3.

For developers

In case TYPO3 does not run in composer mode, the library directory can be rebuilt by

• running composer run-script extension-create-libs.
• See chapter contributors.

For contributors

• Adapt the composer.json file's version of "phpoffice/phpspreadsheet" twice (e.g. 4.3).
• To build the TER package, you must delete the file Libraries/phpoffice-phpspreadsheet.phar and run the command composer run-script extension-release in the extension folder for generating the archive.
• At the beginning you will get the question: "No composer.json in current directory, do you want to use the one at /var/www/html/typo3conf/ext/base_excel? [Y,n]?". -- Here you must answer with N.
• Then everything will be downloaded and the resulting file Library/phpoffice-phpspreadsheet.phar will be generated.
