Referencing columns in LinqToExcel using ordinal position

问题

I am in the unusual position of having two different templates for an Excel upload, one that is 'human friendly' and one that is machine generated. As such, the column data headers are different and it is difficult to align them.

As such, I would like to reference the column mappings using the ordinal position rather than the 'name' of the column. Currently I have this:

var excel = new ExcelQueryFactory(excelFileName);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.FirstName, "First Name");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastName, "Last Name");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastFour, "Last 4 Student ID");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastDate, "Last Date");

and I would like to do something like this:

var excel = new ExcelQueryFactory(excelFileName);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.FirstName, "A");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastName, "C");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastFour, "G");
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastDate, "H");

where the letters are the column references in Excel.

Is there a way to do this?

回答1:

if you order is the same you can call

        var columnnames= excel.GetColumnNames("worksheetName");
        excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.FirstName, columnnames[0]);
        excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.FirstName, columnnames[1]);
        excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastFour, columnnames[2]);

Using the WorksheetNoHeader method is what you're looking for. Here's a code example:

var students = new List<Student>();
var excel = new ExcelQueryFactory("excelFileName");
var rows = excel.WorksheetNoHeader().ToList();

//Skip the first row since it's the header
for (int rowIndex = 1; i < rows.Count; rowIndex++)
{
  var row = rows[rowIndex];
  var student = new Student();
  // row[0] refers to the value in the first column of the row
  student.FirstName = row[0];
  student.LastName = row[1];
  student.LastFour = row[2];
  student.LastDate = row[3];
  students.Add(student);
}

From what I see, you have a 1 to 1 mapping between the human-friendly column name and the ordinal letter. My suggestion is to try implementing a Dictionary<string,string>, where the key is the name of the column and the value is the column letter in Excel. Of course, the dictionary needs to be initialized only once, so maybe through a singleton, or as a static readonly object.

//Initialize dictionary
Dictionary<string,string> columnHeaders=new Dictionary<string,string>();
columnHeaders.Add("First Name", "A");
columnHeaders.Add("Last Name", "C");
columnHeaders.Add("Last 4 Student ID", "G");
columnHeaders.Add("Last Date", "H");

Then your call would be

var excel = new ExcelQueryFactory(excelFileName);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.FirstName, columnHeaders["First Name"]);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastName, columnHeaders["Last Name"]);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastFour, columnHeaders["Last 4 Student ID"]);
excel.AddMapping<Student>(x => x.LastDate, columnHeaders["Last Date"]);
