This splits the webapp in: * IronCalc (the widget to be published on npmjs) * The frontend for our "service" * Adds "dummy code" for the backend using sqlite
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
pip install ironcalc
Compile and test
To compile this and test it:
$ 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.
