Working with Excel and Grails

Posted April 30, 2009 * Comments(2)

I found this 2 links in grailsbrasil.com forum.
It’s a nice feature to include in your system for that situations when user have to input a large amount of data.

First example shows how user can upload the excel file, and your system automatically load all the spreadsheet data into domain objects. And this one, shows the reverse way, by loading your domain objects into an excel file using JExcelAPI.

Recommend!

    Hi,

    nice Blog. For the way grails -> excel you can use the jsp tag lib displaytag too.
    In my little sample app grum you can see the integration of displaytag in grails.

    For exporting, http://grails.org/plugin/export. Easier, more flexible and supports much more formats.

    For importing, I’m researching the best way to do CSV/XML/Excel/StoneDrawings to domain. I’m currently looking at db-stuff plugin.
