Import Export CSV/EXCEL File In Laravel
In this post we will see import export csv excel file in laravel. We will simple create import data to csv, xls file and also we can import data to database using csv file in laravel 7 application.
Using this example we can easily import and export csv file in laravel and download the excel & CSV file from the database using the maatwebsite/excel composer package. maatwebsite/excel provide easy way to import and export using database model.So let's Start
We are creating new project setup for import and export csv file in laravel and import and export excel in laravel.
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel import_export
In this step, we will configure database. So open .env file and fill all details like as bellow:
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=database name(import_export_demo)
DB_USERNAME=database username(root)
DB_PASSWORD=database password(NULL)
Now, we are going to install the Maatwebsite package using the below command.
composer require maatwebsite/excel
After that you need to add providers and alias in your project's config/app.php file
'providers' => [
.......
Maatwebsite\Excel\ExcelServiceProvider::class,
],
'aliases' => [
.......
'Excel' => Maatwebsite\Excel\Facades\Excel::class,
],
After adding aliases and providers are adding some dummy records in databse using below command.
php artisan tinker
factory(App\User::class, 200)->create();
Now in this step we are creating new route for this example in this path routes/web.php
Route::get('import_export', 'Import_Export_Controller@importExport');
Route::post('import', 'Import_Export_Controller@import');
Route::get('export', 'Import_Export_Controller@export');
Create the Import_Export_Controller using the following command.
php artisan make:controller Import_Export_Controller
After run this command we need to add below code in this controller.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Exports\ExportUsers;
use App\Imports\ImportUsers;
use Maatwebsite\Excel\Facades\Excel;
class Import_Export_Controller extends Controller
{
public function importExport()
{
return view('import');
}
public function export()
{
return Excel::download(new ExportUsers, 'users.xlsx');
}
public function import()
{
Excel::import(new ImportUsers, request()->file('file'));
return back();
}
}
Now, we will create the import class using the below command.
php artisan make:import ImportUsers --model=User
After run this command you will find ImportUsers.php in this path app\Imports\ImportUsers.php add below code in this file.
<?php
namespace App\Imports;
use App\User;
use Maatwebsite\Excel\Concerns\ToModel;
class ImportUsers implements ToModel
{
/**
* @param array $row
*
* @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model|null
*/
public function model(array $row)
{
return new User([
'name' => $row[0],
'email' => $row[1],
]);
}
}
Now, we will create the export class using the below command.
php artisan make:export ExportUsers --model=User
After run this command you will find ExportUsers.php in this path app\Export\ExportUsers.php add below code in this file.
<?php
namespace App\Exports;
use App\User;
use Maatwebsite\Excel\Concerns\FromCollection;
class ExportUsers implements FromCollection
{
/**
* @return \Illuminate\Support\Collection
*/
public function collection()
{
return User::all();
}
}
Now create import.blade.php file for view in this path resources/views/import.blade.php
