java web app 导出csv excel 文件



here is a class you can using to export to CSV:

import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import User;

 public class GenerateCsv
 {


    private static void generateCsvFile(ArrayList<User> users)
    {
        String output = "Email, Name\n";

        for (User user in users) {
            output += user.getEmail() + ", " + user.getName() + "\n";
        }

        return output;
    }
 }

Working the MVC way

Here is how your code should be written:

Let's say you have a class called. User.java inside of which there is a static function called get all users

public class User {

    String name;
    String email;

    public static ArrayList<User> getAllUsers() {
        // returns all users
        ... 
    }

}

Then let's say you have a servlet called UsersServlet which get these users:

import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class UsersServlet extends HttpServlet {

    public void doGet (HttpServletRequest   req, HttpServletResponse  res)
        throws ServletException, IOException {

        res.setContentType("application/csv");
        PrintWriter w = res.getWriter();

        ArrayList<User> users = Users.getAllUsers();

        w.prinln(GenerateCsv.generateCsvFile(users));

        w.flush();
        w.close();
    }

    public void doPost (HttpServletRequest  req, HttpServletResponse  res)
        throws ServletException, IOException {
        ...
    }
}

in your jsp, for example, you will have a simple anchor tag which calls the servlet (the servlets calls User.java, get data, forms them into a CSV and then outputs it to the browser...). Something like this would work:

<a href='/getCSV' > Export CSV </a>

but please note that you have to link the servlet to the url using web.xml:

<web-app>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>UsersServlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>__package__.UsersServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>UsersServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>getCSV</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

EDIT: Writing to disk instead of sending to browser

 import java.io.FileWriter;
 import java.io.IOException;
 import User;

 public class GenerateCsv
 {


    private static void generateCsvFile(String fileName, ArrayList<User> users)
    {
           try
           {
                FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(fileName);

                writer.append("Email");
                writer.append(',');
                writer.append("Name");
                writer.append('\n');

                for (User user in users) {
                     writer.append(user.getEmail());
                     writer.append(',');
                     writer.append(user.getName());
                     writer.append('\n');
                }

                writer.flush();
                writer.close();
           } catch(IOException e) {
                 e.printStackTrace();
           } 
      }
 }
