Is there anyone who can help me to install maatwebsite/excel

I have tried to install composer require maatwebsite/excel and I have tried several times but still getting errors and I'm using laravel 9.23.0 and PHP v8.0.5 here is the error.

Using version ^3.1 for maatwebsite/excel ./composer.json has been updated Running composer update maatwebsite/excel Loading composer repositories with package information Updating dependencies Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1 - maatwebsite/excel[3.1.36, ..., 3.1.x-dev] require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet ^1.18 -> satisfiable by phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.18.0, ..., 1.24.1]. - maatwebsite/excel[3.1.0, ..., 3.1.25] require php ^7.0 -> your php version (8.0.5) does not satisfy that requirement.
- maatwebsite/excel[3.1.26, ..., 3.1.35] require illuminate/support 5.8.*|^6.0|^7.0|^8.0 -> found illuminate/support[v5.8.0, ..., 5.8.x-dev, v6.0.0, ..., 6.x-dev, v7.0.0, ..., 7.x-dev, v8.0.0, ..., 8.x-dev] but these were not loaded, likely because it conflicts with another require. - phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.18.0, ..., 1.24.1] require ext-gd * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's gd extension. - Root composer.json requires maatwebsite/excel ^3.1 -> satisfiable by maatwebsite/excel[3.1.0, ..., 3.1.x-dev].

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files: - C:\xampp\php\php.ini You can also run php --ini in a terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode. Alternatively, you can run Composer with --ignore-platform-req=ext-gd to temporarily ignore these required extensions.
You can also try re-running composer require with an explicit version constraint, e.g. "composer require maatwebsite/excel:*" to figure out if any version is installable, or "composer require maatwebsite/excel:^2.1" if you know which you need.

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json and ./composer.lock to their original content.

Solution

  • According to docs the requirements are:

    • PHP: ^7.2\|^8.0
    • Laravel: ^5.8|^6.0|^7.0|^8.0
    • PhpSpreadsheet: ^1.21
    • psr/simple-cache: ^1.0
    • PHP extension php_zip enabled
    • PHP extension php_xml enabled
    • PHP extension php_gd2 enabled
    • PHP extension php_iconv enabled
    • PHP extension php_simplexml enabled
    • PHP extension php_xmlreader enabled
