Export to CSV using jQuery and html

2019-01-01 02:02发布

问题:

I have a tabular data which I need to export to csv without using any external plugin or api. I used the window.open method passing the mime types but faced issues like below:

How to determine whether Microsoft Excel or Open Office is installed on the system using jquery

The code should be independent of the fact that what is being installed on the system i.e., openoffice or ms excel. I believe CSV is the format which can be expected to show in both the editors.

CODE

    <html>

<head>
<script src=\"http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js\"></script>  

<script type=\"text/JavaScript\">
$(document).ready(function(){
    $(\"#btnExport\").click(function(e) {
        var msg = GetMimeTypes();
        //OpenOffice
        window.open(\'data:application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet,\' + $(\'#dvData\').html());
        //MS-Excel
        window.open(\'data:application/vnd.ms-excel,\' + $(\'#dvData\').html());
        //CSV
        window.open(\'data:application/csv,charset=utf-8,\' + $(\'#dvData\').html());
        e.preventDefault();
    });
});

function GetMimeTypes () {
    var message = \"\";
        // Internet Explorer supports the mimeTypes collection, but it is always empty
    if (navigator.mimeTypes && navigator.mimeTypes.length > 0) {
        var mimes = navigator.mimeTypes;
        for (var i=0; i < mimes.length; i++) {
            message += \"<b>\" + mimes[i].type + \"</b> : \" + mimes[i].description + \"<br />\";
        }
    }
    else {
        message = \"Your browser does not support this \";
       //sorry!
    }

    return ( message);
}
</script>

</head>
<body>
<div id=\"dvData\">
<table>
    <tr>
        <th>Column One </th>
        <th>Column Two</th>
        <th>Column Three</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>row1 Col1</td>
        <td>row1 Col2</td>
        <td>row1 Col3</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
        <td>row2 Col1</td>
        <td>row2 Col2</td>
        <td>row2 Col3</td>
   </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>row3 Col1</td>
        <td>row3 Col2</td>
        <td>row3 Col3</td>  
   </tr>
</table>
</div>
<br/>
<input type=\"button\" id=\"btnExport\" value=\" Export Table data into Excel \" />

</body>

Errors:

CSV: Unrecognised over the browsers

ODS & Excel: is working but I am not able to find which one to generate when system is having an excel installed or openoffice installed?

IE version 8 : it is totally not working, opens in a new window and as below screenshot.

See below for an explanation.

    var $rows = $table.find(\'tr:has(td)\'),

      // This is to avoid accidentally splitting the actual contents
      tmpColDelim = String.fromCharCode(11), // vertical tab character
      tmpRowDelim = String.fromCharCode(0), // null character

      // actual delimiter characters for CSV format
      colDelim = \'\",\"\',
      rowDelim = \'\"\\r\\n\"\',

      // Grab text from table into CSV formatted string
      csv = \'\"\' + $rows.map(function(i, row) {
        var $row = $(row),
          $cols = $row.find(\'td\');

        return $cols.map(function(j, col) {
          var $col = $(col),
            text = $col.text();

          return text.replace(/\"/g, \'\"\"\'); // escape double quotes

        }).get().join(tmpColDelim);

As of 2017

Now uses HTML5 Blob and URL as the preferred method with Data URI as a fallback.

On Internet Explorer

Other answers suggest window.navigator.msSaveBlob; however, it is known to crash IE10/Window 7 and IE11/Windows 10. Whether it works using Microsoft Edge is dubious (see Microsoft Edge issue ticket #10396033).

Merely calling this in Microsoft\'s own Developer Tools / Console causes the browser to crash:

navigator.msSaveBlob(new Blob([\"hello\"], {type: \"text/plain\"}), \"test.txt\");


Four years after my first answer, new IE versions include IE10, IE11, and Edge. They all crash on a function that Microsoft invented (slow clap).

Add navigator.msSaveBlob support at your own risk.


As of 2013

Typically this would be performed using a server-side solution, but this is my attempt at a client-side solution. Simply dumping HTML as a Data URI will not work, but is a helpful step. So:

  1. Convert the table contents into a valid CSV formatted string. (This is the easy part.)
  2. Force the browser to download it. The window.open approach would not work in Firefox, so I used <a href=\"{Data URI here}\">.
  3. Assign a default file name using the <a> tag\'s download attribute, which only works in Firefox and Google Chrome. Since it is just an attribute, it degrades gracefully.

Notes

  • You can style your link to look like a button. I\'ll leave this effort to you
  • IE has Data URI restrictions. See: Data URI scheme and Internet Explorer 9 Errors
  • About the \"download\" attribute, see these:

    • Downloading resources in HTML5: a[download]
    • Bug 676619 - Implement proposed download attribute
    • How to detect support for the HTML5 “download” attribute

Compatibility

Browsers testing includes:

  • Firefox 20+, Win/Mac (works)
  • Google Chrome 26+, Win/Mac (works)
  • Safari 6, Mac (works, but filename is ignored)
  • IE 9+ (fails)

Content Encoding

The CSV is exported correctly, but when imported into Excel, the character ü is printed out as ä. Excel interprets the value incorrectly.

Introduce var csv = \'\\ufeff\'; and then Excel 2013+ interprets the values correctly.

If you need compatibility with Excel 2007, add UTF-8 prefixes at each data value. See also:

  • Is it possible to force Excel recognize UTF-8 CSV files automatically?
  • Microsoft Excel mangles Diacritics in .csv files?
  • Adding UTF-8 BOM to string/Blob


回答2:

I am not sure if the above CSV generation code is so great as it appears to skip th cells and also did not appear to allow for commas in the value. So here is my CSV generation code that might be useful.

It does assume you have the $table variable which is a jQuery object (eg. var $table = $(\'#yourtable\');)

$rows = $table.find(\'tr\');

var csvData = \"\";

for(var i=0;i<$rows.length;i++){
                var $cells = $($rows[i]).children(\'th,td\'); //header or content cells

                for(var y=0;y<$cells.length;y++){
                    if(y>0){
                      csvData += \",\";
                    }
                    var txt = ($($cells[y]).text()).toString().trim();
                    if(txt.indexOf(\',\')>=0 || txt.indexOf(\'\\\"\')>=0 || txt.indexOf(\'\\n\')>=0){
                        txt = \"\\\"\" + txt.replace(/\\\"/g, \"\\\"\\\"\") + \"\\\"\";
                    }
                    csvData += txt;
                }
                csvData += \'\\n\';
 }


回答3:

A tiny update for @Terry Young answer, i.e. add IE 10+ support

if (window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob) {
  // IE 10+
  var blob = new Blob([decodeURIComponent(encodeURI(csvString))], {
    type: \'text/csv;charset=\' + document.characterSet
  });
  window.navigator.msSaveBlob(blob, filename);
} else {
  // actual real browsers
  //Data URI
  csvData = \'data:application/csv;charset=utf-8,\' + encodeURIComponent(csvData);

    $(this).attr({
      \'download\': filename,
      \'href\': csvData,
      \'target\': \'_blank\'
    });
}


回答4:

What if you have your data in CSV format and convert it to HTML for display on the web page? You may use the http://code.google.com/p/js-tables/ plugin. Check this example http://code.google.com/p/js-tables/wiki/Table As you are already using jQuery library I have assumed you are able to add other javascript toolkit libraries.

If the data is in CSV format, you should be able to use the generic \'application/octetstream\' mime type. All the 3 mime types you have tried are dependent on the software installed on the clients computer.



回答5:

From what I understand, you have your data on a table and you want to create the CSV from that data. However, you have problem creating the CSV.

My thoughts would be to iterate and parse the contents of the table and generate a string from the parsed data. You can check How to convert JSON to CSV format and store in a variable for an example. You are using jQuery in your example so that would not count as an external plugin. Then, you just have to serve the resulting string using window.open and use application/octetstream as suggested.
