Migration from PHPExcel
PhpSpreadsheet introduced many breaking changes by introducing namespaces and renaming some classes. To help you migrate existing project, a tool was written to replace all references to PHPExcel classes to their new names. But they are also manual changes that need to be done.
Automated tool
The tool is included in PhpSpreadsheet. It scans recursively all files and directories, starting from the current directory. Assuming it was installed with composer, it can be run like so:
cd /project/to/migrate/src
/project/to/migrate/vendor/phpoffice/phpspreadsheet/bin/migrate-from-phpexcel
Important The tool will irreversibly modify your sources, be sure to backup everything, and double check the result before committing.
Manual changes
In addition to automated changes, a few things need to be migrated manually.
Renamed readers and writers
When using with IOFactory::createReader()
, IOFactory::createWriter()
and IOFactory::identify()
, the reader/writer short names are used.
Those were changed, along as their corresponding class, to remove ambiguity:
Before | After |
---|---|
'CSV' |
'Csv' |
'Excel2003XML' |
'Xml' |
'Excel2007' |
'Xlsx' |
'Excel5' |
'Xls' |
'Gnumeric' |
'Gnumeric' |
'HTML' |
'Html' |
'OOCalc' |
'Ods' |
'OpenDocument' |
'Ods' |
'PDF' |
'Pdf' |
'SYLK' |
'Slk' |
Simplified IOFactory
The following methods :
PHPExcel_IOFactory::getSearchLocations()
PHPExcel_IOFactory::setSearchLocations()
PHPExcel_IOFactory::addSearchLocation()
were replaced by IOFactory::registerReader()
and IOFactory::registerWriter()
. That means
IOFactory now relies on classes autoloading.
Before:
\PHPExcel_IOFactory::addSearchLocation($type, $location, $classname);
After:
\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::registerReader($type, $classname);
Removed deprecated things
Worksheet::duplicateStyleArray()
// Before
$worksheet->duplicateStyleArray($styles, $range, $advanced);
// After
$worksheet->getStyle($range)->applyFromArray($styles, $advanced);
DataType::dataTypeForValue()
// Before
DataType::dataTypeForValue($value);
// After
DefaultValueBinder::dataTypeForValue($value);
Conditional::getCondition()
// Before
$conditional->getCondition();
// After
$conditional->getConditions()[0];
Conditional::setCondition()
// Before
$conditional->setCondition($value);
// After
$conditional->setConditions($value);
Worksheet::getDefaultStyle()
// Before
$worksheet->getDefaultStyle();
// After
$worksheet->getParent()->getDefaultStyle();
Worksheet::setDefaultStyle()
// Before
$worksheet->setDefaultStyle($value);
// After
$worksheet->getParent()->getDefaultStyle()->applyFromArray([
'font' => [
'name' => $pValue->getFont()->getName(),
'size' => $pValue->getFont()->getSize(),
],
]);
Worksheet::setSharedStyle()
// Before
$worksheet->setSharedStyle($sharedStyle, $range);
// After
$worksheet->duplicateStyle($sharedStyle, $range);
Worksheet::getSelectedCell()
// Before
$worksheet->getSelectedCell();
// After
$worksheet->getSelectedCells();
Writer\Xls::setTempDir()
// Before
$writer->setTempDir();
// After, there is no way to set temporary storage directory anymore
Autoloader
The class PHPExcel_Autoloader
was removed entirely and is replaced by composer
autoloading mechanism.
Writing PDF
PDF libraries must be installed via composer. And the following methods were removed
and are replaced by IOFactory::registerWriter()
instead:
PHPExcel_Settings::getPdfRenderer()
PHPExcel_Settings::setPdfRenderer()
PHPExcel_Settings::getPdfRendererName()
PHPExcel_Settings::setPdfRendererName()
were renamed assetDefaultPdfWriter()
Before:
\PHPExcel_Settings::setPdfRendererName(PHPExcel_Settings::PDF_RENDERER_MPDF);
\PHPExcel_Settings::setPdfRenderer($somePath);
$writer = \PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($spreadsheet, 'PDF');
After:
$writer = \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::createWriter($spreadsheet, 'Mpdf');
// Or alternatively
\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::registerWriter('Pdf', \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Writer\Pdf\Mpdf::class);
$writer = \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::createWriter($spreadsheet, 'Pdf');
// Or alternatively
$writer = new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Writer\Pdf\Mpdf($spreadsheet);
PclZip and ZipArchive
Support for PclZip were dropped in favor of the more complete and modern PHP extension ZipArchive. So the following were removed:
PclZip
PHPExcel_Settings::setZipClass()
PHPExcel_Settings::getZipClass()
PHPExcel_Shared_ZipArchive
PHPExcel_Shared_ZipStreamWrapper
Cell caching
Cell caching was heavily refactored to leverage PSR-16. That means most classes related to that feature were removed:
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_APC
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_DiscISAM
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_ICache
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_Igbinary
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_Memcache
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_Memory
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_MemoryGZip
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_MemorySerialized
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_PHPTemp
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_SQLite
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_SQLite3
PHPExcel_CachedObjectStorage_Wincache
In addition to that, \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet::getCellCollection()
was renamed
to \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet::getCoordinates()
and
\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet::getCellCacheController()
to
\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet::getCellCollection()
for clarity.
Refer to the new documentation to see how to migrate.
Dropped conditionally returned cell
For all the following methods, it is no more possible to change the type of returned value. It always return the Worksheet and never the Cell or Rule:
- Worksheet::setCellValue()
- Worksheet::setCellValueByColumnAndRow()
- Worksheet::setCellValueExplicit()
- Worksheet::setCellValueExplicitByColumnAndRow()
- Worksheet::addRule()
Migration would be similar to:
// Before
$cell = $worksheet->setCellValue('A1', 'value', true);
// After
$cell = $worksheet->getCell('A1')->setValue('value');
Standardized keys for styling
Array keys used for styling have been standardized for a more coherent experience. It now uses the same wording and casing as the getter and setter:
// Before
$style = [
'numberformat' => [
'code' => NumberFormat::FORMAT_CURRENCY_EUR_SIMPLE,
],
'font' => [
'strike' => true,
'superScript' => true,
'subScript' => true,
],
'alignment' => [
'rotation' => 90,
'readorder' => Alignment::READORDER_RTL,
'wrap' => true,
],
'borders' => [
'diagonaldirection' => Borders::DIAGONAL_BOTH,
'allborders' => [
'style' => Border::BORDER_THIN,
],
],
'fill' => [
'type' => Fill::FILL_GRADIENT_LINEAR,
'startcolor' => [
'argb' => 'FFA0A0A0',
],
'endcolor' => [
'argb' => 'FFFFFFFF',
],
],
];
// After
$style = [
'numberFormat' => [
'formatCode' => NumberFormat::FORMAT_CURRENCY_EUR_SIMPLE,
],
'font' => [
'strikethrough' => true,
'superscript' => true,
'subscript' => true,
],
'alignment' => [
'textRotation' => 90,
'readOrder' => Alignment::READORDER_RTL,
'wrapText' => true,
],
'borders' => [
'diagonalDirection' => Borders::DIAGONAL_BOTH,
'allBorders' => [
'borderStyle' => Border::BORDER_THIN,
],
],
'fill' => [
'fillType' => Fill::FILL_GRADIENT_LINEAR,
'startColor' => [
'argb' => 'FFA0A0A0',
],
'endColor' => [
'argb' => 'FFFFFFFF',
],
],
];
