NAME

Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::XMLReader::Chartsheet - A LibXML::XMLReader chartsheet base class

SYNOPSIS

See the SYNOPSIS in Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML

DESCRIPTION

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

This class is written to extend Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::XMLReader. It addes to that functionality specifically to read any 'chartsheet'.xml sub files. Chartsheet files are not charts they are just tabs in a workbook similar to 'worksheets' that only hold one chart. This POD only describes the functionality incrementally provided by this module. For an overview of sharedStrings.xml reading see Spreadsheet::XLSX::Reader::LibXML::Chartsheet

Extending the chartsheet class

I don't have any good ideas yet. Outside input welcome.

Attributes

Data passed to new when creating an instance. For modification of these attributes see the listed 'attribute methods'. For more information on attributes see Moose::Manual::Attributes. It may be that these attributes migrate based on the reader type.

file

    Definition: This needs to be the full file path to the sharedStrings file or an opened file handle . When set it will coerce to a file handle and then will open and read the primary settings in the sharedStrings.xml file and then maintain an open file handle for accessing specific sharedStrings position information.

    Required: Yes

    Default: none

    Range an actual Excel 2007+ sharedStrings.xml file or open file handle (with the pointer set to the beginning of the file)

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      get_file

        Definition: Returns the value (file handle) stored in the attribute

      set_file

        Definition: Sets the value (file handle) stored in the attribute. Then triggers a read of the file level unique bits.

      has_file

        Definition: predicate for the attribute

error_inst

    Definition: Currently all ShareStrings readers require an Error instance. In general the package will share an error instance reference between the workbook and all classes built during the initial workbook build.

    Required: Yes

    Default: none

    Range: The minimum list of methods to implement for your own instance is;

            error set_error clear_error set_warnings if_warn

    attribute methods Methods provided to adjust this attribute

      get_error_inst

        Definition: returns this instance

      error

        Definition: Used to get the most recently logged error

      set_error

        Definition: used to set a new error string

      clear_error

        Definition: used to clear the current error string in this attribute

      set_warnings

        Definition: used to turn on or off real time warnings when errors are set

      if_warn

        Definition: a method mostly used to extend this package and see if warnings should be emitted.
