#### Why use php-ext-excel-export

Please refer to the image below. PHPExcel has been unable to work properly for memory reasons at 40,000 and 100000 points, but it can be resolved by modifying the ini configuration, but the time may take longer to complete the work;

#### 1、Install the dependencies

##### Ubuntu

```bash
sudo apt-get install -y zlib1g-dev

git clone https://github.com/jmcnamara/libxlsxwriter.git && cd libxlsxwriter && make && sudo make install
```

##### Mac

```bash
brew install libxlsxwriter
```

##### Windows

> Build the basic PHP build environment.

```bash
cd PHP_BUILD_PATH/deps

git clone --recursive https://github.com/jmcnamara/MSVCLibXlsxWriter.git
```

To build the DLL of the library open the LibXlsxWriterProj/LibXlsxWriter.sln project in MS Visual Studio and build the solution using the "Build -> Build Solution" menu item.

In the default configuration this will build an x64 debug LibXlsxWriter .lib and .dll in:

```bash
PHP_BUILD_PATH\deps\MSVCLibXlsxWriter\LibXlsxWriterProj\x64\Debug
```

32Bit: Copy .dll files to c:\Windows\System32
64Bit: Same thing

Add the lib path to the `LIB` environment variable.

#### 2、Get the source code via Git

##### Unix

```bash
git clone https://github.com/viest/php-ext-excel-export.git
cd php-ext-excel-export
phpize && ./configure
make && make install
```
add the `extension=excel_writer.so` to `php.ini` file.

##### Windows

Clone the project to the ext directory in PHP, `configure` add `--with-excel_writer` parameter.

If you need `.dll` files, you should use the `--with-excel_writer=shared` parameter.
