NAME

Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::Row - XLSX Row data class

DESCRIPTION

This documentation is written to explain ways to use this module when writing your own excel parser. To use the general package for excel parsing out of the box please review the documentation for Workbooks, Worksheets, and Cells

This module provides the basic storage and manipulation of row data (for worksheet files). It does not provide the final view of a given cell. The final view of the cell is collated with the role (Interface) Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::Worksheet.

All positions (row and column places and integers) at this level are stored and returned in count from one mode!

Modification of this module probably means a rework of the Worksheet level module Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::XMLReader::WorksheetToRow. Review the attributes "_old_row_inst" in Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::XMLReader::WorksheetToRow and "_new_row_inst" in Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::XMLReader::WorksheetToRow for more details.

Attributes

Data passed to new when creating an instance. For access to the values in these attributes see the listed 'attribute methods'. For general information on attributes see Moose::Manual::Attributes. For ways to manage the instance when opened see the Public Methods.

row_number

    Definition: Stores the row number of the row data in count from 1

    Default: none

    Range: positive integers > 0

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      get_row_number

        Definition: return the attribute value

row_span

    Definition: Stores an array ref of two integers representing the start and end columns in count from 1

    Default: none

    Range: [ 2 positive integers > 0 ]

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      set_row_span

        Definition: sets the attribute

      has_row_span

        Definition: predicate for the attribute

    trait ['Array']

    delegated methods - (curried)

      get_row_start => [ 'get' => 0 ], # Get the first position

      get_row_end => [ 'get' => 1 ], # Get the second position

row_last_value_column

    Definition: Stores the column with a value in it in count from 1

    Default: none

    Range: positive integers > 0

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      get_last_value_column

        Definition: return the attribute value

row_formats

    Definition: this is an open ended hashref with format values stored for the row

    Default: none

    Range: a hash ref

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      set_row_formats

        Definition: sets the attribute

    trait ['Hash']

    delegated methods

      get_row_format => 'get'

row_value_cells

    Definition: Stores an array ref of information about cells with values for that row (in order). The purpose of only storing the values is to allow for 'next_value' calls. The actual position of the cell column is stored in the cell hash and the attribute column_to_cell_translations.

    Default: an ArrayRef[HashRef] with at least one column HashRef set

    Range: ArrayRef[HashRef]

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      get_row_value_cells

        Definition: gets the stored attribute value

    trait ['Array']

    delegated methods

      get_cell_position => 'get'

      total_cell_positions => 'count'

column_to_cell_translations

    Definition: only cells with values are stored but you may want to know if a cell has a value based on a column number or you may want to know where the contents of a cell containing values are base on a column number. This attribute stores that lookup table.

    Default: an ArrayRef with at least one column position set

    Range: ArrayRef

    trait ['Array']

    delegated methods

      get_position_for_column => 'get'

Methods

These are the methods provided by this class for use within the package but are not intended to be used by the end user. Other private methods not listed here are used in the module but not used by the package. If the private method is listed here then replacement of this module either requires replacing them or rewriting all the associated connecting roles and classes. All methods here are assumed to be in count from 1 mode to since the role instances are meant to be managed in the background for the worksheet.

get_the_column( $column )

    Definition: This returns the value stored at the desired column position. It also stores this position as the last column retrieved for any 'next_*' calls

    Accepts: $column (integer)

    Returns: a hashref of cell values at that column, undef for no values, or 'EOR' for positions past the end of the row.

get_the_next_value_position

    Definition: This returns the next set of cell values or 'EOR' for positions past the end of the row. When a set of cell values is returned (not EOR) the new 'last' position is recorded.

    Accepts: nothing

    Returns: a hashref of key value pairs or 'EOR'

get_row_all

    Definition: This is a way to get an array of hashrefs that are positioned correctly in count from zero locations for the row data. Just value cells can be returned with get_row_value_cells. For cells with no value between the value cells undef is stored. For cells past the last value even if they fall inside the row span no positions are created.

    Accepts: nothing

    Returns: an arrayref of hashrefs
