yii2-export

Latest Stable Version License Total Downloads Monthly Downloads Daily Downloads

A library to export server/db data in various formats (e.g. excel, html, pdf, csv etc.) using the PHPExcel library. The widget allows you to configure the dataProvider, columns just like a yii\grid\GridView. However, it just displays the export actions in form of a ButtonDropdown menu, for embedding into any of your GridView or other components.

In addition, with release v1.2.0, the extension also displays a handy grid columns selector for controlling the columns for export. The features available with the column selector are:

  • shows a column picker dropdown list to allow selection of columns for export.
  • new container property allows you to group the export menu and column selector dropdowns.
  • new template property for manipulating the display of menu, column selector or additional buttons in button group.
  • allows configuration of column picker dropdown button through columnSelectorOptions
  • auto-generates column labels in the column selector. But you can override displayed column labels for each column key through columnSelector property settings.
  • allows preselected columns through selectedColumns (you must set the selected column keys)
  • allows columns to be disabled in column selector through disabledColumns (you must set the disabled column keys)
  • allows columns to be hidden in column selector through hiddenColumns (you must set the hidden column keys)
  • allows columns to be hidden from both export and column selector through noExportColumns (you must set the no export column keys)
  • toggle display of the column selector through showColumnSelector property
  • column selector is displayed only if asDropdown is set to true.

The extension offers configurable user interfaces for advanced cases using view templates.

  • exportFormView allows you to setup your own custom view file for rendering the export form.
  • exportColumnsView allows you to setup your own custom view file for rendering the column selector dropdown.
