I have problems to automatically generate borders while exporting an excel file with r. Below is my code and the output I am currently generating and how I would like it to be.
I have tried to help myself with the solution here, but could not make it work on my example.
Here is some code to reproduce the problem:
#some dataframes to export as excel files
Agent1 <- data.frame("QUEUE" = c("call PA", "call", "Call", "call CB"), "NR" = c(6,15,3,7), "Client" = c("xyz company", "some other company", "Company abs", "BNM"), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
Agent2 <- data.frame("QUEUE" = c("call PA", "call", "Call", "call CB"), "NR" = c(7,13,5,3), "Client" = c("xyz company", "some other company", "Company abs", "BNM"), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
Agent3 <- data.frame("QUEUE" = c("call PA", "call", "Call", "call CB"), "NR" = c(4,4,3,7), "Client" = c("xyz company", "some other company", "Company abs", "BNM"), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
nr_of_agents <- 3
# Variable creation for counting cases per agent
for (a in 1 : nr_of_agents) {
agent_s <- paste0("Agent",a,"sum")
assign(agent_s, 0)
}
for (a in 1:nr_of_agents){ #Counting cases per agent
agent <- paste0("Agent",a)
tempv <- eval(as.name(agent))
agent_s <- paste0("Agent",a,"sum")
tempv1 <- eval(as.name(agent_s))
tempv1 <- sum(tempv$NR)
assign(agent_s, paste("Total cases: ", tempv1))
}
## EXCEL OUTPUT
wb<-createWorkbook(type="xlsx")
TITLE_STYLE <- CellStyle(wb)+ Font(wb, heightInPoints=16, color=NULL, isBold=TRUE) +
Alignment(h="ALIGN_CENTER")
TEXT_STYLE <- CellStyle(wb)+ Font(wb, heightInPoints=12, color=NULL, isBold=FALSE) +
Alignment(h="ALIGN_RIGHT")+
Border(color="black", position=c("TOP"),
pen=c("BORDER_THIN"))
# Styles for the data table row/column names
TABLE_ROWNAMES_STYLE <- CellStyle(wb) + Font(wb, isBold=TRUE)
TABLE_COLNAMES_STYLE <- CellStyle(wb) + Font(wb,color="#FFFAFA", heightInPoints=12, name="Calibri Light", isBold=TRUE) +
Fill(foregroundColor="#9e2b11",pattern="SOLID_FOREGROUND")+#, backgroundColor="lightblue")
Alignment(wrapText=TRUE, horizontal="ALIGN_CENTER")+
Border(color="black", position=c("TOP", "BOTTOM", "LEFT", "RIGHT"),
pen=c("BORDER_THIN"))
#Code to add title
xlsx.addTitle<-function(sheet, rowIndex, title, titleStyle){
rows <-createRow(sheet,rowIndex=rowIndex)
sheetTitle <-createCell(rows, colIndex=3)
setCellValue(sheetTitle[[1,1]], title)
setCellStyle(sheetTitle[[1,1]], titleStyle)
}
#Code to add sums of cases per agent
xlsx.addsums<-function(sheet, rowIndex, title, titleStyle){
rows <-createRow(sheet,rowIndex=rowIndex)
sheetTitle <-createCell(rows, colIndex=3)
setCellValue(sheetTitle[[1,1]], title)
setCellStyle(sheetTitle[[1,1]], titleStyle)
}
names <- c("Mark", "Neli", "Sara") # Agents names
for (a in 1 : nr_of_agents) {
agent <- paste0("Agent",a)
tempv <- eval(as.name(agent))
agent_S <- paste0("Agent",a,"sum")
tempv1 <- eval(as.name(agent_S))
sheet<-createSheet(wb, sheetName = names[a]) #sheet creation
xlsx.addTitle(sheet, rowIndex=1, title=names[a], #Adding title to each sheet
titleStyle = TITLE_STYLE)
addDataFrame(tempv, sheet, startRow=3, startColumn=1, #Adding the dataframes
colnamesStyle = TABLE_COLNAMES_STYLE,
rownamesStyle = TABLE_ROWNAMES_STYLE
)
xlsx.addsums(sheet, rowIndex=(3+ nrow(tempv)+1), title= tempv1, #Adding total sum for every agent
titleStyle = TEXT_STYLE)
autoSizeColumn(sheet, colIndex=c(1:ncol(tempv))) #Auto size columns
}
saveWorkbook(wb, paste0(Sys.Date()," Test_file",".xlsx"))
Picture of current and desired output
As seen in the picture also the automatic column width is not working correctly, its size is dependant of the length of the column header and not the longest word in the column. Any idea on how to solve this?
Thanks for the help!
You can do this with openxlsx package.
library(openxlsx)
