This is the class used by openxlsx2
to modify workbooks from R.
You can load an existing workbook with wb_load()
and create a new one with
wb_workbook()
.
After that, you can modify the wbWorkbook
object through two primary methods:
Wrapper Function Method: Utilizes the wb
family of functions that support
piping to streamline operations.
wb <- wb_workbook(creator = "My name here") %>%
wb_add_worksheet(sheet = "Expenditure", grid_lines = FALSE) %>%
wb_add_data(x = USPersonalExpenditure, row_names = TRUE)
Chaining Method: Directly modifies the object through a series of chained function calls.
wb <- wb_workbook(creator = "My name here")$
add_worksheet(sheet = "Expenditure", grid_lines = FALSE)$
add_data(x = USPersonalExpenditure, row_names = TRUE)
While wrapper functions require explicit assignment of their output to reflect changes, chained functions inherently modify the input object. Both approaches are equally supported, offering flexibility to suit user preferences. The documentation mainly highlights the use of wrapper functions.
# Import workbooks
path <- system.file("extdata/openxlsx2_example.xlsx", package = "openxlsx2")
wb <- wb_load(path)
## or create one yourself
wb <- wb_workbook()
# add a worksheet
wb$add_worksheet("sheet")
# add some data
wb$add_data("sheet", cars)
# Add data with piping in a different location
wb <- wb %>% wb_add_data(x = cars, dims = wb_dims(from_dims = "D4"))
# open it in your default spreadsheet software
if (interactive()) wb$open()
Note that the documentation is more complete in each of the wrapper functions.
(i.e. ?wb_add_data
rather than ?wbWorkbook
).
