See issues #1432 and #2149. Data validations on an Xlsx worksheet can be specified in two manners - one (henceforth "internal") if a list is specified from the same sheet, and a different one (henceforth "external") if a list is specified from a different sheet. Xlsx worksheet reader formerly processed only the internal format; PR #2150 fixed this so that both would be processed correctly on read. However, Xlsx worksheet writer outputs data validators only in the internal format, and that does not work for external data validations; it appears, however, that internal data validations can be specified in external format.
This PR changes Xlsx worksheet writer to use only the external format. Somewhat surprisingly, this must come after most of the other XML tags that constitute a worksheet. It shares this characteristic (and XML tag) with conditional formatting. The new test case DataValidator2Test includes a worksheet which has both internal and external data validation, as well as conditional formatting.
There is some additional namespacing work supporting Data Validations that needs to happen on Xlsx reader. Since that is substantially unchanged with this PR, that work will happen in a future namespacing phase, probably phase 2. However, there are some non-namespace-related changes to Xlsx reader in this PR:
- Cell DataValidation adds support for a new property sqref, which is initialized through Xlsx reader using a setSqref method. If not initialized at write time, the code will work as it did before the introduction of this property. In particular, before this change, data validation applied to an entire column (as in the sample spreadsheet) would be applied only through the last populated row. In addition, this also allows a user to extend a Data Validation over a range of cells rather than just a single cell; the new method is added to the documentation.
- The topLeft property had formerly been used only for worksheets which use "freeze panes". However, as luck would have it, the sample dataset provided to demonstrate the Data Validations problem uses topLeft without freeze panes, slightly affecting the view when the spreadsheet is initially opened; PhpSpreadsheet will now do so as well.
It is worth noting issue #2262, which documents a problem with the hasValidValue method involving the calculation engine. That problem existed before this PR, and I do not yet have a handle on how it might be fixed.
* Fraction Formatting
See issue #2253. User's analysis was correct - leading zeros in the decimal portion were being stripped out, so 0.0625 and 0.625 were being treated the same. As it turns out, integers also aren't handled well (`0 0/1` anyone?). The latter problem had been hidden because caller tested for integer first and skipped call if true; but FractionFormatter::format is public and should work correctly regardless. All Phpstan baseline entries for FractionFormatter and NumberFormatter are eliminated. New test data is added; no need for changes to test code.
* Scrutinizer
Ensure result is string.
See issue #2239. Problem is dealt with at the source, by making sure that Reader Xls checks for use of 'GENERAL' rather than 'General'. There doesn't seem to be a reason to test in other places, or to test for other casing variants.
* Initial adjustments to Xlsx Reader for two possible locations for AutoFiter information, either on the sheet itself for older files, or in the tables/tableX file for more recent files
* Refactor AutoFilter Reader logic into separate methods; preparatory work toward the eventual goal of moving it into its own dedicated AutoFilterTables class
* Basic unit tests to verify that the Xlsx Reader can read both the older and Office365 variants of the files used to store AutoFilter structure
* Xls Reader Handle MACCENTRALEUROPE With or Without Hyphen
Fixes issue #549 and https://github.com/Maatwebsite/Laravel-Excel/issues/989 (which is the source of the new test file). Some systems accept MACCENTRALEUROPE as the name for the appropriate encoding, and some accept MAC-CENTRALEUROPE. I fortunately have access to at least one of each type, and have run the tests on each.
CodePage.php has an array of translations from codepage number to string. I now allow the value to itself be an array; if so, the code will test each in turn to see if it can be used in iconv. I did not go fishing for other similar problems. If such show up, they can be dealt with in the same manner as this one. I don't really expect others, since this is a problem not merely for Xls, but, even then, it applies only to BIFF5 and earlier.
I also moved XlsTest from Reader to Reader/Xls.
* Cache Successful Result For Future Use
Per suggestion from @MarkBaker
Fix for issue #1897.
The existing hashing code seems to work correctly almost all the time, but there are exceptions. It is replaced by an exact implementation of the spec, including a link to the spec in the comments. Cases known to fail are added to the unit test suite.
The spec expects the string to be at most 255 bytes (yes, bytes not characters). The program had permitted any length; it will now throw an exception when the maximum length is exceeded.
Xls does not support any hashing algorithm except basic. The Xls writer had, nevertheless, accepted the results of any of the other possible algorithms. This leads to (a) a worksheet that can't be unprotected, and (b) deprecation notices during the write (because it is using hexdec, which expects only hex characters, and the other algorithms generate non-hex characters). I have changed Xls writer to ignore passwords generated by other algorithms. An alternative would be to have the password hasher generate both an algorithmic password (for use by Xlsx) and a basic password (for use by Xls); I think that is too complex a solution, but can look into it if you think it worthwhile.
I do not see any current support for Worksheet passwords in ODS Reader or Writer. I did not add support in this PR.
I added a new test to confirm the password for reading a spreadsheet is consistent with the one used for writing it. As you can see from the comments for the new test, it had an unusual problem with a somewhat unusual solution.
* Xlsx Reader Better Namespace Handling Phase 1 Try2
This is a replacement for #2088, which has run into merge conflicts. I will close that PR in the near future, however the comments in that PR may prove useful for this one. While that PR has been in draft status all along, I am marking this one as ready. I will gladly add additional tests (and, of course, make code changes) that anyone has to suggest, but, with my most recent test files which I will describe in a separate comment, I have no further ideas on useful additions.
As mentioned in the earlier ticket, this is a risky change. But, as has been demonstrated, delaying it comes with its own set of risks. It would be helpful to have a temporary moratorium on changes to Reader/Xlsx until this change is merged.
The original commit message follows.
There have been a number of issues concerning the handling of legitimate but unexpected namespace prefixes in Xlsx spreadsheets created by software other than Excel and PhpSpreadsheet/PhpExcel.I have studied them, but, till now, have not had a good idea on how to act on them. A recent comment https://github.com/PHPOffice/PhpSpreadsheet/issues/860#issuecomment-824926224 in issue #860 by @IMSoP has triggered an idea about how to proceed.
Gnumeric Reader was recently changed to handle namespaces better. Using that as a model, this PR begins the process of doing the same for Xlsx. Xlsx is much larger and more complicated than Gnumeric, hence the need to tackle it in multiple phases. I believe that this PR handles all of:
- listWorkSheetNames
- listWorkSheetInfo. Note that there was a bug in this function which would cause it to count only used columns rather than all columns. That bug is corrected.
- active sheet
- selected cell and top left cell
- cell content (formulas, numbers, text)
- hyperlinks
- comments (partial - see below)
This PR does not address:
- styles
- images and charts
- VBA and ribbons
- many other items, I'm sure
The issue for non-standard namespacing till now has been the use of unexpected prefixes. While I was working on this change, @Lambik introduced issue #2067 PR #2068 which introduced a completely different problem - the use of unexpected URLs. That PR and the issue associated with it were quite well documented, including the supplying of a test file and tests for it. I asked if I could take a look to see if it could be integrated with my change, and the result seems to be yes, so those changes are also part of this PR.
While adding a comment to my test file, I discovered that Microsoft had added "threaded comments" as a new feature. I believe these are not yet supported by PhpSpreadsheet, and I am not going to add it, at least not now. I believe that, among other things, this will make identifying the author of a comment more difficult.
Although there are a number of Phpstan baseline changes as part of this PR, I did not attempt to resolve all Phpstan reports for Reader/Xlsx. Nor did I do anything to increase coverage. This change is already large and complex enough without those efforts.
Per suggestion from @MarkBaker.
WildcardMatch did not handle double tilde correctly. It has been changed to do so and its logic simplified (and commented).
Existing AutoFilter test covered this situation, but I added a test for MATCH as well.
* Read data validations for drop down list in another sheet.
* Add function testLoadXlsxDataValidationOfAnotherSheet() in class tests/PhpSpreadsheetTests/Reader/XlsxTest.php for unit test.
* Add sample xlsx for unit tests.
* Modifiy call function isset() for warnings.
* Additional assertions to ensure that the worksheet has been read correctly for DataValidation that references a list on a different worksheet
* This should resolve the phpstan issues

* Improve Identification of Samples in Coverage Report
The Phpunit coverage report currently contains bullet items like `PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheetTests\Helper\SampleTest\testSample with data set "49"`. This extremely simple change takes advantage of Phpunit's ability to accept an array with keys which are either strings or integers, by using the sample filenames as the array keys rather than sequential but otherwise meaningless integers (e.g. `49` in the earlier cited item). The bullet item will now read `PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheetTests\Helper\SampleTest\testSample with data set "Basic/38_Clone_worksheet.php"`.
* Fix for Issue 2158 (AverageIf Calculation Problem)
Issue #2158 reports an error calculating AverageIf because a function returns null rather than a string. There turn out to be several components to this problem:
- The nominal fix to the problem is to add some null-to-nullstring coercion in DatabaseAbstract.
- This fixes the error, but does not necessarily lead to the correct result because buildQuery treats values of null and null-string identically, whereas Excel does not. So change that to treat null-string as any other string.
- But that doesn't lead to the correct result either. That's because Functions/ifCondition recognizes a null string, but then continues to (over-)process it until it returns the wrong result. Fix this problem in conjunction with the other two, and we finally get the correct result.
A new unit test is added for AVERAGEIF, and new test cases are added for SUMIF. In each case, there are complementary tests for conditions of null and null-string, and the results agree with Excel. There may or may not be value in adding new tests to other functions, and I will be glad to do so for any functions which you care to identify, but no existing tests broke as a result of these changes.
* PHP8.1 Deprecation Passing Null to String Function
For each of the files in this PR, one or more statements can pass a null to string functions like strlower. This is deprecated in PHP8.1, and, when deprecated messages are enabled, causes many tests to error out. In every case, use coercion to pass null string rather than null.
* TextData - Minor Changes, Test Coverage
Per agreement on a previous push, I looked into standardizing the initialization of the TextData functions (like Engineering and MathTrig), with particular regard for avoiding multiple later null coercions. This simplifies the code quite a bit. This PR also increases coverage to 100% for all TextData modules. All entries in Phpstan baseline for non-deprecated TEXTDATA functions are removed. There were some minor bugfixes.
Whereas Excel (and Gnumeric) treat booleans when supplied as strings as 'TRUE' or 'FALSE', ODS treats them as '1' or '0'. Unlike Excel, ODS generally does not allow bool for int arguments; it does, however, allow them for FIND and SEARCH. ODS allows boolean for into for SUBSTITUTE even though Excel doesn't. ODS allows bool for string for NUMBERVALUE and VALUE even though Excel doesn't. ODS accepts 0 as an argument for CHAR; Excel doesn't. Most of this seems like random decisions on the part of the developers; I've done my best to follow the products in each case. There is a new test member devoted to ODS tests.
Gnumeric has an anomaly vis-a-vis the others - if length is supplied to LEFT/MID/RIGHT as null, Gnumeric treats it as 0 rather than 1.
All tests now take place in the context of a spreadsheet ...
Except for RETURNSTRING, which is not the implementation of an Excel function, and is referred to in the rest of PhpSpreadsheet only in the unit tests for itself. It should probably be deprecated, but that is not part of this PR, just in case there is some reason for it that I couldn't discern.
I have tried to make the first line of each doc block identify the Excel function name rather than its name in PhpSpreadsheet. I think it makes things more comprehensible.
Some tests call Settings::setLocale, but there was no Settings::getLocale. At the end of the tests which do it, they invoke setLocale('EN-US'), which, in a practical sense, is sufficient. However, in theory it would be better for them to get the current locale before changing it, then changing it back to the original when the time came. I have added getLocale and made the appropriate testing change.
The CHAR function took an interesting turn. One can set the value of a cell to, say, CHAR(2), the ASCII/UTF-8 representation of a control character, which is not legal in certain contexts. The only Reader/Writer that could handle this without problems is Xls, which deals with binary data all the time. However, if you tried to write it to Xlsx, Excel would not be able to open the resulting file because of what it considers an illegal character. I changed the Xlsx writer to escape such characters when writing the value of a string function. I did not make any other changes to the Xlsx writer - it seems to me that setting a cell to CHAR(2) is legitimate, but setting it to say `"\x02"` seems less likely to be legitimate, so the latter will still fail (although `="\x02"` should work). The Xlsx reader already supports the escape mechanism that I added to the writer.
CHAR control character and Ods - not supported by either Reader or Writer. I did not attempt to add this now. There is lots still missing from ODS, and this item just can't be a high priority amongst all of those.
CHAR control character and Csv - it is supported by reader and writer if the file has a csv extension. However, trying to guess the mime type without an extension - the control character makes mime_get_type guess application/octet-stream, and PhpSpreadsheet therefore thinks that Csv can't read it.
CHAR control character and Html. Actual use of the control character in the file is subject to the same problems as Xml (i.e. Xlsx and Ods). It wasn't terribly difficult to get the Html Writer to change `"\x02"` to "``". I believe that this is technically legal; however, DOMDocument.loadHTML rejects it as an illegal entity, and I am not convinced that it is wrong to do so, so I haven't changed the Html writer.
* Scrutinizer
Correct 3 minor errors.
* Fix for the BIFF-8 Xls colour mappings in the Reader
* Unit test for reading colours, writing hen rereading and ensuring that the RGB values have not changed
* Initia work on differentiating between empty arguments and null arguments passed to Excel functions
Previously we always passed a null value for an empty argument (i.e. where there was an argument separator in the function call without an argument.... PHP doesn't support empty arguments, so we needed to provide some value but then it wasn't possible to differentiate between a genuine null argument (either a literal null, or a null cell value) and the null that we were passing to represent an empty argument value.
This change evaluates empty arguments within the calculation engine, and instead of passing a null, it reads the signature of the required Excel function, and passes the default value for that argument; so now a null argument really does mean a null value argument.
* If the Excel function implementation doesn't accept any arguments; or once we reach a variadic argument, or try to pass more arguments than the method supports in its signature, then there's no point in checking for defaults, and to do so will lead to PHP errors, so break out of the default replacement loop
See issue #2116. Code for handling end of month (method couponFirstPeriodDate) needed a fix. Fixed it, confirmed it covered the reported issue with no regression problems. Then added some extra similar tests to all the callers of couponFirstPeriodDate, and ...
One new test, in COUPDAYSNC, does not agree with Excel. It also does not agree with LibreOffice. It does, however, agree with Gnumeric, and with my (hardly guaranteed) hand calculation of what the result should be. So, I'm going with it (and have added an appropriate comment to the test data). I'm glad to discuss the matter with anyone more familiar than I with how this is supposed to work - those 360-day years are killers.
* Additional unit tests for VLOOKUP() and HLOOKUP()
* Additional unit tests for CHOOSE()
* Unit tests for HYPERLINK() function
* Fix CHOOSE() test for spillage
As issue #2042 documents, SUM behaves differently with invalid strings depending on whether they come from a cell or are used as literals in the formula. SUM is not alone in this regard; COUNTA is another function within this behavior, and the solution to this one is modeled on COUNTA. New tests are added for SUM, and the resulting tests are duplicated to confirm correct behavior for both cells and literals.
Samples 16 (CSV), 17 (Html), and 21 (PDF) were adversely affected by this problem. 17 and 21 were immediately fixed, but 16 had another problem - Excel was not interpreting the UTF8 currency symbols correctly, even though the file was saved with a BOM. After some experimenting, it appears that the `sep=;` line generated by setExcelCompatibility(true) causes Excel to mis-handle the file. This seems like a bug - there is apparently no way to save a UTF-8 CSV with non-ASCII characters which specifies a non-standard separator which Excel will open correctly. I don't know if this is a recent change or if it is just the case that nobody noticed this problem till now. So, I changed Sample 16 to use setUseBom rather than setExcelCompatibility, which solved its problem. I then added new tests for setExcelCompatibility, with documentation of this problem.
* Defined names/formulae in ODS are prefixed by $$ when used in a formula; so we need to strip this out to fully convert them to an Excel formula
* Test for ODS Writer for DefinedNames
* First steps in the implementation of AutoFilters for ODS Reader and Writer, starting with reading a basic AutoFilter range (ignoring row visibility, filter types and active filters for the moment).
And also some additional refactoring to extract the DefinedNames Reader into its own dedicated class as a part of overall code improvement... on the principle of "when working on a class, always try to leave the library codebase in a better state than you found it"
* Provide a basic Ods Writer implementation for AutoFilters
* AutoFilter Reader Test
* AutoFilter Writer Test
* Update Change Log
* Pattern Fill style should default to 'solid' if there is a pattern fill style for a conditional; though may need to check if there are defined fg/bg colours as well; and only set a fill style if there are defined colurs
* Improved Support for INDIRECT, ROW, and COLUMN Functions
This should address issues #1913 and #1993. INDIRECT had heretofore not supported an optional parameter intended to support addresses in R1C1 format which was introduced with Excel 2010. It also had not supported the use of defined names as an argument. This PR is a replacement for #1995, which is currently in draft status and which I will close in a day or two.
The ROW and COLUMN functions also should support defined names. I have added that, and test cases, with the latest push. ROWS and COLUMNS already supported it correctly, but there had been no test cases. Because ROW and COLUMN can return arrays, and PhpSpreadsheet does not support dynamic arrays, I left the existing direct-call tests unchanged to demonstrate those capabilities.
The unit tests for INDIRECT had used mocking, and were sorely lacking (tested only error conditions). They have been replaced with normal, and hopefully adequate, tests. This includes testing globally defined names, as well as locally defined names, both in and out of scope.
The test case in 1913 was too complicated for me to add as a unit test. The main impediments to it are now removed, and its complex situation will, I hope, be corrected with this fix.
INDIRECT can also support a reference of the form Sheetname!localName when localName on its own would be out of scope. That functionality is added. It is also added, in theory, for ROW and COLUMN, however such a construction is rejected by the Calculation engine before passing control to ROW or COLUMN. It might be possible to change the engine to allow this, and I may want to look into that later, but it seems much too risky, and not nearly useful enough, to attempt to address that as part of this change.
Several unusual test cases (leading equals sign, not-quite-as-expected name definition in file, complex indirection involving concatenation and a dropdown list) were suggested by @MarkBaker and are included in this request.
Openpyxl can generate the xml tag `<patternFill/>`, possibly even as a default style. Excel has no problem with this, treating it as "fill none", but PhpSpreadsheet has a glitch because it treats it as "fill solid white". So, when PhpSpreadsheet loads and saves such a file, the result at first appears as if gridlines are disabled; in fact, the gridlines are merely invisible behind the cells with their solid white fill. This PR makes PhpSpreadsheet behave the same as Excel in this circumstance.
