How to upload and convert XLSX file to JSON using ember.js

I am trying to allow the user to upload an XLSX file to be converted to a JSON or CSV file to be parsed through on the back-end. I am using node.js, and tried several packages including the read-excel-file (https://github.com/catamphetamine/read-excel-file/blob/master/README.md)

readXlsxFile(file).then(function(data) {
let jsondata = JSON.parse(data);
-do something with jsondata-
});
Solution

  • The usual place to look for add-ons would be Ember Observer but the options available seem have a status of Work In Progress - they might be a useful place to look though to get some inspiration for how to proceed.

    There are plenty of options on npm. You can import one of those into your project using the new add-on ember-auto-import or, if you'd rather do the hard work yourself, the Ember guides provide some guidance on manually importing.
