用Java玩转Excel，竟然如此easy~
1、POI是什么
Apache POI - the Java API for Microsoft Documents，顾名思义，Apache的三方包，用来操作微软office文档的，多数时候用来操作excel，所以这里就以excel方面来说明。
需要引入两个包，maven地址如下（version 3.9
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi</artifactId>
<version>3.9</version>
</dependency>
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.poi/poi-ooxml -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
<version>3.9</version>
</dependency>
POI的组件列表中，针对excel的主要是HSSF和XSSF组件，前者针对97-2007的通用版excel，即后缀xls；后者针对2007或更高版的excel，即后缀xlsx。官方概要如下：
HSSF is the POI Project's pure Java implementation of the Excel '97(-2007) file format.
XSSF is the POI Project's pure Java implementation of the Excel 2007 OOXML (.xlsx) file format.2、POI核心类
面向对象面向对象，既然如此，自然去找找一些能表示excel中内容的类。
2.1 工作簿 Workbook
创建或维护Excel工作簿的所有类的超接口，Workbook，属于org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel包。其下有两个实现类：
-
HSSFWorkbook : 有读取.xls 格式和写入Microsoft Excel文件的方法。它与微软Office97-2003版本兼容
-
XSSFWorkbook : 有读写Microsoft Excel和OpenOffice的XML文件的格式.xls或.xlsx的方法。它与MS-Office版本2007或更高版本兼容
所以在针对不同版本的excel时，需要对应以上使用不同的Workbook。构造函数中，常用的：
HSSFWorkbook
//直接创建新的
HSSFWorkbook()
//通过输入流创建
HSSFWorkbook(java.io.InputStream s)
XSSFWorkbook
//直接创建新的
XSSFWorkbook()
//通过File类创建
XSSFWorkbook(java.io.File file)
//通过输入流创建
XSSFWorkbook(java.io.InputStream is)
2.2 标签页 Sheet
HSSFSheet 和 XSSFSheet 都是Sheet接口的实现类，Sheet可以使用Workbook的两个方法获得：
workbook.createSheet();
workbook.createSheet(String sheetName);2.3 行 Row
同理，Row是 HSSFRow 和 XSSFRow 的接口，通过Sheet获取：
sheet.createRow(int rownum);
2.4 单元格 Cell
同理，Cell是 HSSFCell 和 XSSFCell 的接口，通过Row获取：
row.createCell(int column);
row.createCell(int column, int type);3、创建和读取
其实如果能理解面向对象，就很简单了，另外包括字体，公式，超链接等，都有对应的封装类，此处只提出了核心的几个，需要了解更多的需要自行展开。
例子的话，直接从别人教程里摘出来吧，另，读取的workbook，可以debug瞅瞅内容。
3.1 创建空白工作簿
import java.io.*;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
public class CreateWorkBook
public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception
//Create Blank workbook
XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook();
//Create file system using specific name
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(
new File("createworkbook.xlsx"));
//write operation workbook using file out object
workbook.write(out);
out.close();
System.out.println("
createworkbook.xlsx written successfully");
}
3.2 打开现有的工作簿
import java.io.*;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
public class OpenWorkBook
public static void main(String args[])throws Exception
File file = new File("openworkbook.xlsx");
FileInputStream fIP = new FileInputStream(file);
//Get the workbook instance for XLSX file
XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(fIP);
if(file.isFile() && file.exists())
System.out.println(
"openworkbook.xlsx file open successfully.");
System.out.println(
"Error to open openworkbook.xlsx file.");
4、方法示例：任意对象List转至为Excel文档（可用注解定义标签名和列名）
写了个方法，可以将某个类的List转换为对应的Excel文档，列名如果在不使用注解的情况下默认为属性名：
类：
@Excel(name = "学生标签页")
public class Student {
@Excel(name = "姓名")
private String name;
private boolean male;
@Excel(name = "身高")
private int height;
public String getName() {
return name;
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
public boolean isMale() {
return male;
public void setMale(boolean male) {
this.male = male;
public int getHeight() {
return height;
public void setHeight(int height) {
this.height = height;
}
测试方法：
public static void main(String[] args) {
List<Student> list = new ArrayList<Student>();
Student student1 = new Student();
student1.setName("小红");
student1.setMale(false);
student1.setHeight(167);
Student student2 = new Student();
student2.setName("小明");
student2.setMale(true);
student2.setHeight(185);
list.add(student1);
list.add(student2);
File file = new File("C:/Users/Dulk/Desktop/1314.xls");
createExcel(list, file);
}输出结果：
注解：
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface Excel {
//设置名称
public String name() default "";
