How to export data in excel dynamically using PHPSpreadsheet/PHPExcel in PHP? - php

Question

I have some data which I am trying to export in an excel sheet with help of PHP, data is dynamic so I am facing difficulties while exporting them. I have tried both in PHPExcel (which is deprecated) and in PHPSpreadsheet too. I have tried lots of solutions given in the community but no help!
How to print data dynamically in excel using PHP?
Data needs to print from column number = 36 (AK) and Row = 2
Data that needs to export:
MongoDB\Model\BSONDocument Object
(
[storage:ArrayObject:private] => Array
(
[dd1] => PWC>Yes,Deloitte>Yes,Media Type>Category A,Coverage Type>Quote,Service Line>TAX,Score>5
[dd2] => Service Line>Personal tax
)
)
though [dd1] contains labels and values too, like PWC[this is lable] >Yes [this is value], that's why I explode label and value separately.
Also, I have printed the labels in the first row already that's why I explode the value of the below code and also made a check if ($temp[0] == $labels[$i]) then only print value.
Completed Code:
$cols = 36;
for ($i = 0; $i < count($labels); $i++) {
if ($result["qualification"]["dd1"] != "") {
$found = false;
for ($j = 0; $j < count($dd1); $j++) {
$temp = explode(">", $dd1[$j]);
//need to check the weather labels of the header and these labels are the same? then only print
if ($temp[0] == $labels[$i]) {
$name = explode(">", $dd1[$j]);
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow($cols+1, $j+1, $name[1]);
$found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!$found)
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow($cols+1, $j+1 , "");
} else
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow($cols+1 , $j+1 , "");
if ($result["qualification"]["dd2"] != "") {
$found = false;
for ($j = 0; $j < count($dd2); $j++) {
$temp = explode(">", $dd2[$j]);
if ($temp[0] == $labels[$i]) {
$name = explode(">", $dd2[$j]);
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow( $cols, $j + 2, $name[1] );
$found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!$found)
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow($cols, $j+1 , "");
} else {
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow($cols , $j+1 , "");
}
$cols = $cols + 2;
}
I have tried lots of methods but no help but I made something in the HTML table which is working fine, unfortunately, I do not need an HTML table to excel because it has a lot of format issues and cons.
for reference only-
Here is the same working snippet in HTML Table:
$inn_table = "";
if($result['qualification']['dd1']!="") {
$dd1 = explode(",",$result['qualification']['dd1']);
}
if($result['qualification']['dd2']!=""){
$dd2 = explode(",",$result['qualification']['dd2']);
}
for($i=0;$i<count($labels);$i++) {
if($result['qualification']['dd1']!="") {
$found=false;
for($j=0;$j<count($dd1);$j++) {
$temp = explode(">",$dd1[$j]);
if($temp[0]==$labels[$i]) {
$name = explode(">",$dd1[$j]);
$inn_table .= '<td>'.$name[1].'</td>';
$found=true;
break;
}
}
if(!$found)
$inn_table .= "<td> </td>";
}
else
$inn_table .= "<td> </td>";
if($result['qualification']['dd2']!="") {
$found=false;
// echo '<pre>ass';print_r($dd2);
for($j=0;$j<count($dd2);$j++) {
$temp = explode(">",$dd2[$j]);
if($temp[0]==$labels[$i]) {
$name = explode(">",$dd2[$j]);
$inn_table .= '<td>'.$name[1].'</td>';
$found=true;
break;
}
}
if(!$found)
$inn_table .= '<td> </td>';
}
else{
//if(count($dd2Array)>0){
$inn_table .= '<td> </td>';
//}
}
} //end of for($i=0;$i<count($labels);$i++)
echo $inn_table;
echo "</tr>";
