README

The enflow/laravel-excel-to-google-sheet package provides an easy way to push Laravel Excel exporters to Google Sheet. Use-cases include creating a Laravel Export to be exported in your application layer, which also needs to be periodically synced to a remote Google Sheet.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require enflow/laravel-excel-to-google-sheet

Authentication

The package uses the Google Client PHP library in the background. Authenticating with Google requires a Google Cloud Console account. Via the Google Cloud Console account, you must have a valid project, where the Google Spreadsheet API is enabled. To export the required JSON credentials, you can follow the steps below:

1. Go to the Google Cloud Console
2. Create a new project or select an existing project
3. Go to APIs & Services > Credentials
4. Click Create Credentials > Service account
5. Choose Spreadsheet API for the scope.
6. Fill in the required fields and click Create
7. Select the created service account and click Add key > Create new key
8. Select JSON and click Create
9. The JSON file will be downloaded to your computer
10. Copy the contents of the JSON file and place it in a secure place. We recommend storage/secrets/google-service-account.json

Implementation

To start, publish the config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Enflow\LaravelExcelToGoogleSheet\LaravelExcelToGoogleSheetServiceProvider" --tag="config"

After, you can add your existing Laravel Excel export classes to the exports array:

'exports' => [
    'teams' => \App\Exports\TeamsExport::class,
],

After setting up the exports, we recommend running php artisan push-export-to-google-sheets to validate the exports are pushed correctly.

To periodically schedule a push from your Laravel Excel export to a Google Sheet, you can schedule the Enflow\LaravelExcelToGoogleSheet\PushAllExportsToGoogleSheets command. This will send all defined exports to their Google Sheets. For instance:

use Enflow\LaravelExcelToGoogleSheet\PushExportsToGoogleSheets;

$schedule->command(PushAllExportsToGoogleSheets::class)->dailyAt(3)->environments('production');

Testing

$ composer test
