# IronCalc python bindings
With IronCalc you can create, read and manipulate xlsx files.
You can manage sheets, add, remove, delete rename.
You can add cell values, retrieve them and most importantly you can evaluate spreadsheets.
## Installation
```bash
pip install ironcalc
```
## Compile and test
To compile this and test it:
```bash
$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install maturin
$ maturin develop
$ cd examples
examples $ python example.py
```
From there if you use `python` you can `import ironcalc`. You can either create a new file, read it from a JSON string or import from Excel.
Hopefully the API is straightforward.
## Creating documentation
We use sphinx
```
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install maturin
pip install sphinx
maturin develop
sphinx-build -M html docs html
python -m http.server --directory html/html/
```
