I am wring dataframes to excel. Maybe I am not doing it correctly,
When I use this code:
from datetime import datetime
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl import load_workbook
start = datetime.now()
df = pd.read_excel(r"C:\Users\harsh\Google Drive\Oddsportal\Files\Oddsportal "
r"Data\Historical Worksheet\data.xlsx", sheet_name='x1')
df['run_time'] = start
df1 = pd.read_csv(r"C:\Users\harsh\Google Drive\Oddsportal\Files\Oddsportal "
r"Data\Pre-processed\oddsportal_upcoming_matches.csv")
df1['run_time'] = start
concat = [df, df1]
df_c = pd.concat(concat)
path = r"C:\Users\harsh\Google Drive\Oddsportal\Files\Oddsportal Data\Historical Worksheet\data.xlsx"
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine='xlsxwriter')
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x1')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x2')
df_c.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='upcoming_archive')
writer.save()
writer.close()
print(df_c.head())
The dataframes are written in their respective sheets and all the other existing sheets get deleted.
How can i write to only the respective sheets and not disturb the other existing ones?
xlsxwriter is Not meant to alter an existing xlsx file. The only savier is openpyxl, which does the job but is hard to learn. I even wrote a simple python script to fill the gap to write a bunch of rows or columns in a sheet - openpyxl_writers.py
You just need to use the append mode and set if_sheet_exists to replace and use openpyxl as engine.
Replace:
writer = pd.ExcelWriter('test.xlsx')
By:
writer = pd.ExcelWriter('test.xlsx', mode='a', engine='openpyxl',
if_sheet_exists='replace') # <- HERE
From the documentation:
mode{‘w’, ‘a’}, default ‘w’
I am trying to read data from multiple xls files and write it to one single file.
My code below is writing only the first file. Not sure what I am missing.
import glob import os import pandas as pd
def list_files(dir):
r = []
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(dir):
for name in files:
r.append(os.path.join(root, name))
return r
files = list_files("C:\\Users\\12345\\BOFS")
for file in files:
df = pd.read_excel(file)
new_header = df.iloc[1]
df = df[2:]
df.columns = new_header
with pd.ExcelWriter("C:\\Users\\12345\\Test\\Test.xls", mode='a') as writer:
df.to_excel(writer,index=False, header=True,)
Documentation says:
ExcelWriter can also be used to append to an existing Excel file:
with pd.ExcelWriter('output.xlsx',
mode='a') as writer:
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet_name_3')
And that probably replaces given sheet
But you could use pd.concat(<dataframes>) to concatenate dataframes and write all data at once in a single sheet.
I tested this piece of code, hopefully its work in your case.
import glob, os
os.chdir("D:/Data Science/stackoverflow")
for file in glob.glob("*.xlsx"):
df = pd.read_excel(file)
all_data = all_data.append(df,ignore_index=True)
# now save the data frame
writer = pd.ExcelWriter('output.xlsx')
all_data.to_excel(writer,'sheet1')
writer.save()
I want to use excel files to store data elaborated with python. My problem is that I can't add sheets to an existing excel file. Here I suggest a sample code to work with in order to reach this issue
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
x1 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(x1)
x2 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(x2)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'xlsxwriter')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x2')
writer.save()
writer.close()
This code saves two DataFrames to two sheets, named "x1" and "x2" respectively. If I create two new DataFrames and try to use the same code to add two new sheets, 'x3' and 'x4', the original data is lost.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
x3 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df3 = pd.DataFrame(x3)
x4 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df4 = pd.DataFrame(x4)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'xlsxwriter')
df3.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x3')
df4.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x4')
writer.save()
writer.close()
I want an excel file with four sheets: 'x1', 'x2', 'x3', 'x4'.
I know that 'xlsxwriter' is not the only "engine", there is 'openpyxl'. I also saw there are already other people that have written about this issue, but still I can't understand how to do that.
Here a code taken from this link
import pandas
from openpyxl import load_workbook
book = load_workbook('Masterfile.xlsx')
writer = pandas.ExcelWriter('Masterfile.xlsx', engine='openpyxl')
writer.book = book
writer.sheets = dict((ws.title, ws) for ws in book.worksheets)
data_filtered.to_excel(writer, "Main", cols=['Diff1', 'Diff2'])
writer.save()
They say that it works, but it is hard to figure out how. I don't understand what "ws.title", "ws", and "dict" are in this context.
Which is the best way to save "x1" and "x2", then close the file, open it again and add "x3" and "x4"?
Thank you. I believe that a complete example could be good for anyone else who have the same issue:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
x1 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(x1)
x2 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(x2)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'xlsxwriter')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x2')
writer.close()
Here I generate an excel file, from my understanding it does not really matter whether it is generated via the "xslxwriter" or the "openpyxl" engine.
When I want to write without loosing the original data then
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from openpyxl import load_workbook
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
book = load_workbook(path)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'openpyxl')
writer.book = book
x3 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df3 = pd.DataFrame(x3)
x4 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df4 = pd.DataFrame(x4)
df3.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x3')
df4.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x4')
writer.close()
this code do the job!
For creating a new file
x1 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(x1)
with pd.ExcelWriter('sample.xlsx') as writer:
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x1')
For appending to the file, use the argument mode='a' in pd.ExcelWriter.
x2 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(x2)
with pd.ExcelWriter('sample.xlsx', engine='openpyxl', mode='a') as writer:
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x2')
Default is mode ='w'.
See documentation.
In the example you shared you are loading the existing file into book and setting the writer.book value to be book. In the line writer.sheets = dict((ws.title, ws) for ws in book.worksheets) you are accessing each sheet in the workbook as ws. The sheet title is then ws so you are creating a dictionary of {sheet_titles: sheet} key, value pairs. This dictionary is then set to writer.sheets. Essentially these steps are just loading the existing data from 'Masterfile.xlsx' and populating your writer with them.
Now let's say you already have a file with x1 and x2 as sheets. You can use the example code to load the file and then could do something like this to add x3 and x4.
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine='openpyxl')
df3.to_excel(writer, 'x3', index=False)
df4.to_excel(writer, 'x4', index=False)
writer.save()
That should do what you are looking for.
A simple example for writing multiple data to excel at a time. And also when you want to append data to a sheet on a written excel file (closed excel file).
When it is your first time writing to an excel. (Writing "df1" and "df2" to "1st_sheet" and "2nd_sheet")
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl import load_workbook
df1 = pd.DataFrame([[1],[1]], columns=['a'])
df2 = pd.DataFrame([[2],[2]], columns=['b'])
df3 = pd.DataFrame([[3],[3]], columns=['c'])
excel_dir = "my/excel/dir"
with pd.ExcelWriter(excel_dir, engine='xlsxwriter') as writer:
df1.to_excel(writer, '1st_sheet')
df2.to_excel(writer, '2nd_sheet')
writer.save()
After you close your excel, but you wish to "append" data on the same excel file but another sheet, let's say "df3" to sheet name "3rd_sheet".
book = load_workbook(excel_dir)
with pd.ExcelWriter(excel_dir, engine='openpyxl') as writer:
writer.book = book
writer.sheets = dict((ws.title, ws) for ws in book.worksheets)
## Your dataframe to append.
df3.to_excel(writer, '3rd_sheet')
writer.save()
Be noted that excel format must not be xls, you may use xlsx one.
Every time you want to save a Pandas DataFrame to an Excel, you may call this function:
import os
def save_excel_sheet(df, filepath, sheetname, index=False):
# Create file if it does not exist
if not os.path.exists(filepath):
df.to_excel(filepath, sheet_name=sheetname, index=index)
# Otherwise, add a sheet. Overwrite if there exists one with the same name.
else:
with pd.ExcelWriter(filepath, engine='openpyxl', if_sheet_exists='replace', mode='a') as writer:
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name=sheetname, index=index)
I would strongly recommend you work directly with openpyxl since it now supports Pandas DataFrames.
This allows you to concentrate on the relevant Excel and Pandas code.
Can do it without using ExcelWriter, using tools in openpyxl
This can make adding fonts to the new sheet much easier using openpyxl.styles
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl import load_workbook
from openpyxl.utils.dataframe import dataframe_to_rows
#Location of original excel sheet
fileLocation =r'C:\workspace\data.xlsx'
#Location of new file which can be the same as original file
writeLocation=r'C:\workspace\dataNew.xlsx'
data = {'Name':['Tom','Paul','Jeremy'],'Age':[32,43,34],'Salary':[20000,34000,32000]}
#The dataframe you want to add
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
#Load existing sheet as it is
book = load_workbook(fileLocation)
#create a new sheet
sheet = book.create_sheet("Sheet Name")
#Load dataframe into new sheet
for row in dataframe_to_rows(df, index=False, header=True):
sheet.append(row)
#Save the modified excel at desired location
book.save(writeLocation)
You can read existing sheets of your interests, for example, 'x1', 'x2', into memory and 'write' them back prior to adding more new sheets (keep in mind that sheets in a file and sheets in memory are two different things, if you don't read them, they will be lost). This approach uses 'xlsxwriter' only, no openpyxl involved.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"
# begin <== read selected sheets and write them back
df1 = pd.read_excel(path, sheet_name='x1', index_col=0) # or sheet_name=0
df2 = pd.read_excel(path, sheet_name='x2', index_col=0) # or sheet_name=1
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine='xlsxwriter')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x2')
# end ==>
# now create more new sheets
x3 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df3 = pd.DataFrame(x3)
x4 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df4 = pd.DataFrame(x4)
df3.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x3')
df4.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='x4')
writer.save()
writer.close()
If you want to preserve all existing sheets, you can replace above code between begin and end with:
# read all existing sheets and write them back
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine='xlsxwriter')
xlsx = pd.ExcelFile(path)
for sheet in xlsx.sheet_names:
df = xlsx.parse(sheet_name=sheet, index_col=0)
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name=sheet)
Another fairly simple way to go about this is to make a method like this:
def _write_frame_to_new_sheet(path_to_file=None, sheet_name='sheet', data_frame=None):
book = None
try:
book = load_workbook(path_to_file)
except Exception:
logging.debug('Creating new workbook at %s', path_to_file)
with pd.ExcelWriter(path_to_file, engine='openpyxl') as writer:
if book is not None:
writer.book = book
data_frame.to_excel(writer, sheet_name, index=False)
The idea here is to load the workbook at path_to_file if it exists and then append the data_frame as a new sheet with sheet_name. If the workbook does not exist, it is created. It seems that neither openpyxl or xlsxwriter append, so as in the example by #Stefano above, you really have to load and then rewrite to append.
#This program is to read from excel workbook to fetch only the URL domain names and write to the existing excel workbook in a different sheet..
#Developer - Nilesh K
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl import load_workbook #for writting to the existing workbook
df = pd.read_excel("urlsearch_test.xlsx")
#You can use the below for the relative path.
# r"C:\Users\xyz\Desktop\Python\
l = [] #To make a list in for loop
#begin
#loop starts here for fetching http from a string and iterate thru the entire sheet. You can have your own logic here.
for index, row in df.iterrows():
try:
str = (row['TEXT']) #string to read and iterate
y = (index)
str_pos = str.index('http') #fetched the index position for http
str_pos1 = str.index('/', str.index('/')+2) #fetched the second 3rd position of / starting from http
str_op = str[str_pos:str_pos1] #Substring the domain name
l.append(str_op) #append the list with domain names
#Error handling to skip the error rows and continue.
except ValueError:
print('Error!')
print(l)
l = list(dict.fromkeys(l)) #Keep distinct values, you can comment this line to get all the values
df1 = pd.DataFrame(l,columns=['URL']) #Create dataframe using the list
#end
#Write using openpyxl so it can be written to same workbook
book = load_workbook('urlsearch_test.xlsx')
writer = pd.ExcelWriter('urlsearch_test.xlsx',engine = 'openpyxl')
writer.book = book
df1.to_excel(writer,sheet_name = 'Sheet3')
writer.save()
writer.close()
#The below can be used to write to a different workbook without using openpyxl
#df1.to_excel(r"C:\Users\xyz\Desktop\Python\urlsearch1_test.xlsx",index='false',sheet_name='sheet1')
if you want to add empty sheet
xw = pd.ExcelWriter(file_path, engine='xlsxwriter')
pd.DataFrame().to_excel(xw, 'sheet11')
if you get empty sheet
sheet = xw.sheets['sheet11']
import pandas as pd
import openpyxl
writer = pd.ExcelWriter('test.xlsx', engine='openpyxl')
data_df.to_excel(writer, 'sheet_name')
writer.save()
writer.close()
The following solution worked for me:
# dataframe to save
df = pd.DataFrame({"A":[1,2], "B":[3,4]})
# path where you want to save
path = "./..../..../.../test.xlsx"
# if an excel sheet named `test` is already present append on sheet 2
if os.path.isfile(path):
with pd.ExcelWriter(path, mode='a') as writer:
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name= "sheet_2")
else:
# if not present then write to a excel file on sheet 1
with pd.ExcelWriter(path) as writer:
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name= "sheet_1")
Now, if you want to write multiple dataframes on different sheets, simply add a loop and keep on changing the sheet_name.
i want merge multi excel file(1.xlsm, 2.xlsm....) to [A.xlsm] file with macro, 3sheets
so i try to merge
# input_file = (./*.xlsx)
all_data = pd.DataFrame()
for f in (input_file):
df = pd.read_excel(f)
all_data = all_data.append(df,ignore_index=True, sort=False)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(A.xlsm, engine='openpyxl')
all_data.to_excel(writer,'Sheet1')
writer.save()
the code dose not error,
but result file[A.xlsm] is error to open,
so i change extension to A.xlsx and open.
it opening is OK but disappear all Sheets and macro.
how can i merge multi xlsx file to xlsm file with macro?
I believe that if you want to use macro-enabled workbooks you need to load them with keep_vba=True:
from openpyxl import load_workbook
XlMacroFile = load_workbook('A.xlsm',keep_vba=True)
To preserve separate sheets, you can do something like
df_list = #list of your dataframes
filename = #name of your output file
with pd.ExcelWriter(filename) as writer:
for df in df_list:
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='sheet_name_goes_here')
This will write each dataframe in a separate sheet in your output excel file.
I have a pandas dataframe and I want to open an existing excel workbook containing formulas, copying the dataframe in a specific set of columns (lets say from column A to column H) and save it as a new file with a different name.
The idea is to update an existing template, populate it with the dataframe in a specified set of column and then save a copy of the Excel file with a different name.
Any idea?
What I have is:
import pandas
from openpyxl import load_workbook
book = load_workbook('Template.xlsx')
writer = pandas.ExcelWriter('Template.xlsx', engine='openpyxl')
writer.book = book
writer.sheets = dict((ws.title, ws) for ws in book.worksheets)
df.to_excel(writer)
writer.save()
The below should work, assuming that you are happy to copy into column A. I don't see a way to write into the sheet starting in a different column (without overwriting anything).
The below incorporates #MaxU's suggestion of copying the template sheet before writing to it (having just lost a few hours' work on my own template workbook to pd.to_excel)
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl.utils.dataframe import dataframe_to_rows
from shutil import copyfile
template_file = 'Template.xlsx' # Has a header in row 1 already
output_file = 'Result.xlsx' # What we are saving the template as
# Copy Template.xlsx as Result.xlsx
copyfile(template_file, output_file)
# Read in the data to be pasted into the termplate
df = pd.read_csv('my_data.csv')
# Load the workbook and access the sheet we'll paste into
wb = load_workbook(output_file)
ws = wb.get_sheet_by_name('Existing Result Sheet')
# Selecting a cell in the header row before writing makes append()
# start writing to the following line i.e. row 2
ws['A1']
# Write each row of the DataFrame
# In this case, I don't want to write the index (useless) or the header (already in the template)
for r in dataframe_to_rows(df, index=False, header=False):
ws.append(r)
wb.save(output_file)
try this:
df.to_excel(writer, startrow=10, startcol=1, index=False, engine='openpyxl')
Pay attention at startrow and startcol parameters
