xlsx — Файлы электронных таблиц для Excel

--- name: xlsx description: "Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved." license: Proprietary.

You have different tools and workflows available for different tasks. ## Prerequisites - **openpyxl**: Excel file creation and editing - **pandas**: data analysis and bulk operations - **LibreOffice** (`soffice`): formula recalculation via `scripts/recalc.py` - `git` is optional but improves redlining diff output in validation workflows. - On Windows, dependencies must be installed and available in `PATH`; if missing, report the dependency issue and stop (do not keep retrying). ## Important Requirements **LibreOffice Required for Formula Recalculation**: Use `scripts/recalc.py` to recalculate formula values. The script auto-configures LibreOffice on first run and handles sandboxed environments where Unix sockets are restricted (via `scripts/office/soffice.py`). ## Reading and analyzing data ### Data analysis with pandas For data analysis, visualization, and basic operations, use **pandas** which provides powerful data manipulation capabilities: ```python import pandas as pd # Read Excel df = pd.read_excel('file.xlsx') # Default: first sheet all_sheets = pd.read_excel('file.xlsx', sheet_name=None) # All sheets as dict # Analyze df.head() # Preview data df.info() # Column info df.describe() # Statistics # Write Excel df.to_excel('output.xlsx', index=False) ``` ## Excel File Workflows ## CRITICAL: Use Formulas, Not Hardcoded Values **Always use Excel formulas instead of calculating values in Python and hardcoding them.** This ensures the spreadsheet remains dynamic and updateable. ### ❌ WRONG - Hardcoding Calculated Values ```python # Bad: Calculating in Python and hardcoding result total = df['Sales'].sum() sheet['B10'] = total # Hardcodes 5000 # Bad: Computing growth rate in Python growth = (df.iloc[-1]['Revenue'] - df.iloc[0]['Revenue']) / df.iloc[0]['Revenue'] sheet['C5'] = growth # Hardcodes 0.15 # Bad: Python calculation for average avg = sum(values) / len(values) sheet['D20'] = avg # Hardcodes 42.5 ``` ### ✅ CORRECT - Using Excel Formulas ```python # Good: Let Excel calculate the sum sheet['B10'] = '=SUM(B2:B9)' # Good: Growth rate as Excel formula sheet['C5'] = '=(C4-C2)/C2' # Good: Average using Excel function sheet['D20'] = '=AVERAGE(D2:D19)' ``` This applies to ALL calculations - totals, percentages, ratios, differences, etc. The spreadsheet should be able to recalculate when source data changes. ## Common Workflow 1. **Choose tool**: pandas for data, openpyxl for formulas/formatting 2. **Create/Load**: Create new workbook or load existing file 3. **Modify**: Add/edit data, formulas, and formatting 4. **Save**: Write to file 5. **Recalculate formulas (MANDATORY IF USING FORMULAS)**: Use the scripts/recalc.py script ```bash python scripts/recalc.py output.xlsx ``` 6. **Verify and fix any errors**: - The script returns JSON with error details - If `status` is `errors_found`, check `error_summary` for specific error types and locations - Fix the identified errors and recalculate again - Common errors to fix: - `#REF!`: Invalid cell references - `#DIV/0!`: Division by zero - `#VALUE!`: Wrong data type in formula - `#NAME?`: Unrecognized formula name ### Creating new Excel files ```python # Using openpyxl for formulas and formatting from openpyxl import Workbook from openpyxl.styles import Font, PatternFill, Alignment wb = Workbook() sheet = wb.active # Add data sheet['A1'] = 'Hello' sheet['B1'] = 'World' sheet.append(['Row', 'of', 'data']) # Add formula sheet['B2'] = '=SUM(A1:A10)' # Formatting sheet['A1'].font = Font(bold=True, color='FF0000') sheet['A1'].fill = PatternFill('solid', start_color='FFFF00') sheet['A1'].alignment = Alignment(horizontal='center') # Column width sheet.column_dimensions['A'].width = 20 wb.save('output.xlsx') ``` ### Editing existing Excel files ```python # Using openpyxl to preserve formulas and formatting from openpyxl import load_workbook # Load existing file wb = load_workbook('existing.xlsx') sheet = wb.active # or wb['SheetName'] for specific sheet # Working with multiple sheets for sheet_name in wb.sheetnames: sheet = wb[sheet_name] print(f"Sheet: {sheet_name}") # Modify cells sheet['A1'] = 'New Value' sheet.insert_rows(2) # Insert row at position 2 sheet.delete_cols(3) # Delete column 3 # Add new sheet new_sheet = wb.create_sheet('NewSheet') new_sheet['A1'] = 'Data' wb.save('modified.xlsx') ``` ## Recalculating formulas Excel files created or modified by openpyxl contain formulas as strings but not calculated values. Use the provided `scripts/recalc.py` script to recalculate formulas: ```bash python scripts/recalc.py <excel_file> [timeout_seconds] ``` Example: ```bash python scripts/recalc.py output.xlsx 30 ``` The script: - Automatically sets up LibreOffice macro on first run - Recalculates all formulas in all sheets - Scans ALL cells for Excel errors (#REF!, #DIV/0!, etc.) - Returns JSON with detailed error locations and counts - Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows ## Formula Verification Checklist Quick checks to ensure formulas work correctly: ### Essential Verification - [ ] **Test 2-3 sample references**: Verify they pull correct values before building full model - [ ] **Column mapping**: Confirm Excel columns match (e.g., column 64 = BL, not BK) - [ ] **Row offset**: Remember Excel rows are 1-indexed (DataFrame row 5 = Excel row 6) ### Common Pitfalls - [ ] **NaN handling**: Check for null values with `pd.notna()` - [ ] **Far-right columns**: FY data often in columns 50+ - [ ] **Multiple matches**: Search all occurrences, not just first - [ ] **Division by zero**: Check denominators before using `/` in formulas (#DIV/0!) - [ ] **Wrong references**: Verify all cell references point to intended cells (#REF!) - [ ] **Cross-sheet references**: Use correct format (Sheet1!A1) for linking sheets ### Formula Testing Strategy - [ ] **Start small**: Test formulas on 2-3 cells before applying broadly - [ ] **Verify dependencies**: Check all cells referenced in formulas exist - [ ] **Test edge cases**: Include zero, negative, and very large values ### Interpreting scripts/recalc.py Output The script returns JSON with error details: ```json { "status": "success", // or "errors_found" "total_errors": 0, // Total error count "total_formulas": 42, // Number of formulas in file "error_summary": { // Only present if errors found "#REF!": { "count": 2, "locations": ["Sheet1!B5", "Sheet1!C10"] } } } ``` ## Best Practices ### Library Selection - **pandas**: Best for data analysis, bulk operations, and simple data export - **openpyxl**: Best for complex formatting, formulas, and Excel-specific features ### Working with openpyxl - Cell indices are 1-based (row=1, column=1 refers to cell A1) - Use `data_only=True` to read calculated values: `load_workbook('file.xlsx', data_only=True)` - **Warning**: If opened with `data_only=True` and saved, formulas are replaced with values and permanently lost - For large files: Use `read_only=True` for reading or `write_only=True` for writing - Formulas are preserved but not evaluated - use scripts/recalc.py to update values ### Working with pandas - Specify data types to avoid inference issues: `pd.read_excel('file.xlsx', dtype={'id': str})` - For large files, read specific columns: `pd.read_excel('file.xlsx', usecols=['A', 'C', 'E'])` - Handle dates properly: `pd.read_excel('file.xlsx', parse_dates=['date_column'])` ## Code Style Guidelines **IMPORTANT**: When generating Python code for Excel operations: - Write minimal, concise Python code without unnecessary comments - Avoid verbose variable names and redundant operations - Avoid unnecessary print statements **For Excel files themselves**: - Add comments to cells with complex formulas or important assumptions - Document data sources for hardcoded values - Include notes for key calculations and model sections
