README

The main purpose of this library is not replace kartik-v/yii2-export. Kartik's one has a lot of features not implemented on this one.

This is a new yii2-export widget wrote from the scratch to improve performance.

The idea of this one appeared when PHPExcel doesn't fit to generate large excel files in a fast way. The first feature was dispatch reports to be generated in queues.

Not enough, another feature was replace PHPExcel with spout, successfully reducing the time consuming.

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

$ composer require ericmaicon/yii2-export:*

or add

"ericmaicon/yii2-export": "*"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Usage

Using with the Grid:

<?= \Da\export\GridView::widget([
    'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
]); ?>

To use Kartik's grid you will need to override renderExport method:

<?php

use Da\export\ExportMenu;

class GridView extends \kartik\grid\GridView
{
    public function renderExport()
    {
        return ExportMenu::widget([
            'dataProvider' => $this->dataProvider,
            'columns' => $this->columns,
        ]);
