ExcelJS - How to handle “computed columns” with addRowsAsync
I'm using the ExcelJs API with addRowsAsync() and deleteAllDataValuesAsync(). (reference)
If the user creates some "computed columns" in the Excel sheet, which enlarge the size of the table (e.g.: a new column with the value of the first column + 1), when I want add new data to the table, how should I handle the "computed" column/s?
let excelTable = currentWorksheet.tables.getItemOrNullObject(tableName)
excelTable.rows.load("values")
excelTable.columns.load("values")
return context.sync().then(() => {
if (excelTable.isNullObject) {
excelTable = currentWorksheet.tables.add(tableRange, true)
excelTable.name = tableName
excelTable.getHeaderRowRange().values = [excelHeaders]
return context.sync().then(() => {
Office.context.document.bindings.addFromNamedItemAsync(
tableName,
Office.BindingType.Table,
{ id: tableName },
function(result) {
if (result.status === Office.AsyncResultStatus.Succeeded) {
Office.context.document.bindings.getByIdAsync(
tableName,
null,
(asyncResult: any) => {
var binding = asyncResult.value
binding.addRowsAsync(_excelData)
}
)
} else {
Debug.error("Error:", result.error.message)
}
}
)
})
} else {
const tableRows = excelTable.rows.items.length
const tableColumns = excelTable.columns.items.length
const dataRows = _excelData.length
const dataColumns = _excelData[0].length
Office.context.document.bindings.getByIdAsync(
tableName,
null,
(asyncResult: any) => {
var binding = asyncResult.value
binding.deleteAllDataValuesAsync()
binding.addRowsAsync(_excelData)
}
)
}
excelTable.getRange().format.autofitColumns()
excelTable.getRange().format.autofitRows()
return context.sync()
})
Using Excel for Windows, the new rows aren't added to the table.
Differenly happens if I use Excel Online: the rows are added and the computed column is correctly left "untouched".
Is it a bug of the API?
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance,
Andrea
