xlwings Reports

This feature requires xlwings PRO.

xlwings Reports is a solution for template-based Excel and PDF reporting, making the generation of pixel-perfect factsheets really simple. xlwings Reports allows business users without Python knowledge to create and maintain Excel templates without having to rely on a Python developer after the initial setup has been done: xlwings Reports separates the Python code (pre- and post-processing) from the Excel template (layout/formatting).

xlwings Reports supports all commonly required components:

• Text: Easily format your text via Markdown syntax.

• Tables (dynamic): Write pandas DataFrames to Excel cells and Excel tables and format them dynamically based on the number of rows.

• Charts: Use your favorite charting engine: Excel charts, Matplotlib, or Plotly.

• Images: You can include both raster (e.g., png) or vector (e.g., svg) graphics, including dynamically generated ones, e.g., QR codes or plots.

• Multi-column Layout: Split your content up into e.g. a classic two column layout by using Frames.

• Single Template: Generate reports in various languages, for various funds etc. based on a single template.

• PDF Report: Generate PDF reports automatically and "print" the reports on PDFs in your corporate layout for pixel-perfect results including headers, footers, backgrounds and borderless graphics.

• Easy Pre-processing: Since everything is based on Python, you can connect with literally any data source and clean it with pandas or some other library.

• Easy Post-processing: Again, with Python you're just a few lines of code away from sending an email with the reports as attachment or uploading the reports to your web server, S3 bucket etc.
