Modify existing Excel File using node.js


exceljs does let you modify Excel spreadsheets.

Here's an example of reading in an existing spreadsheet and writing it back out to a different file:

var Excel = require('exceljs');var workbook = new Excel.Workbook();workbook.xlsx.readFile('old.xlsx')    .then(function() {        var worksheet = workbook.getWorksheet(1);        var row = worksheet.getRow(5);        row.getCell(1).value = 5; // A5's value set to 5        row.commit();        return workbook.xlsx.writeFile('new.xlsx');    })

If you're using the Streams API with exceljs, you can also pipe your stream into fs.createWriteStream to write to a file as well.


You can modify excel, below is the example.

var Excel = require('exceljs');async function excelOp() {    let workbook = new Excel.Workbook();    workbook = await workbook.xlsx.readFile('question_39869739.xlsx'); // replace question_39869739.xls with your file    let worksheet = workbook.getWorksheet('sheetname'); // replace sheetname with actual sheet name    worksheet.getRow('rowNumber').getCell('cellNumber').value = 350; // replace rowNumber and cellNumber with the row and cell you want to modify    workbook.xlsx.writeFile('question_50508131.xlsx');}excelOp();
