How to use PHPExcel correctly with Symfony 2

Question

I need to use PHPExcel with a Symfony2 project. Anyone know how to set up the project correctly to use the library? Should i put it in the vendor directory? Wha

Answer 1

As of Symfony 2.3, you can now do this:

...
"require": {
    ...
    "phpoffice/phpexcel": "dev-master"
    ...
},
...

Then just run composer update and dependencies will resolve automatically.

Or you can do composer require phpoffice/phpexcel:dev-master if you don't want to mess with the composer.json file.
