I'd like to create an excel file, and create a link for it within a page,
without writing the file to disk. I've been trying to do something like this
:
def create_excel_link(poll_id):
import xlsxwriter
import cStringIO
stream = cStringIO.StringIO()
...
workbook = xlsxwriter.Workbook(stream)
worksheet = workbook.add_worksheet(...)
...
stream.seek(0)
return A('link', _href = stream.read())
The above idea works with images (i.e. with the IMG helper, although I've
been advised that this is not efficient), but I'm not sure how to make it
work with excel files. Is it possible to modify this or do something
comparable in order to generate an excel file without writing it to disk,
and to present a link to it? Thank you.
