I would like to use Apache POI to read/create Excel files in an Scala app. Sure, I can use the POI library directly, it's Java after all, but I would like to have the Scala feel. So is there a Scala wrapper bringing the Scala feel (using implicit conversions), i.e. some kind of "Scala-POI-DSL" freely available?
This is utterly unhelpful, but I hacked up an Scala-ish DSL for POI. It allows code like
Workbook{
Sheet("Multiplication"){
for(i<-1 to 10){
Row{
for(j<-1 to 10){
Cell(i*j)
}
}
}
}
}.writeToFile("multiplication.xls")
Sadly I can't give it out without checking with my boss, but to be honest it wasn't that hard to do. You should be able to reverse-engineer most of it from that example without much trouble.
I don't know of any Scala library for this kind of encapsulation.
Most questions around using apache POI are about iterators.
And the alexcheng project does import an Excel document, and has a test case.
But that's about it.
