Anyway to tell sheet_to_json to output with the cell's value instead of text?

Hello!

Been using XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json, but hit a snag. The Excel workbook has a sheet with cells filled with integers. But when I run sheet_to_json, it spits them out as strings.

Using this as the example:

A2: { t: 'n', v: 1995, w: '1995' },
B2: { t: 'n', v: 27, w: '27' },
C2: { t: 'n', v: 4, w: '4' },

I assume this is because it fills out object with the cell’s text representation – w – instead of v. Is there anyway for me to tell it to use v instead?

I’m currently looping through the generated object to alter the keys I know should be numbers, but this tool would ideally not require the user to customize the converter per sheet. That could quickly get out of hand.

Thanks!

Ha, went and poked on the code, and found it pretty quickly.

XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(worksheet, {raw: true});

It’d be good to document this!

Raw option is actually very good. It’s a shame it’s not documented.
