How do I access a row?

I have:

var xls = require('xlsjs');
var workbook = xls.readFile('lp.xls');
var sheet_name_list = workbook.SheetNames;
var sheet = workbook.Sheets[sheet_name_list[0]];

I need a function that lets me iterate over each row, as in:

sheet.rows.forEach(function(row) {
   //do something with row.
})

Is this possible?

By the way, my file doesn’t have a proper column with header format so I can’t use the function in utils.

@arg20 to answer your question:

var xls = require('xlsjs');
var workbook = xls.readFile('lp.xls');
var sheet_name_list = workbook.SheetNames;
var sheet = workbook.Sheets[sheet_name_list[0]];
var data = xls.utils.sheet_to_json(sheet, {header:1}); // <-- this is an array of arrays that you can use

@arg20 @notatestuser I played with it a bit and settled on the following options:

• opts.header = 1 generates an array of arrays
• opts.header = ‘A’ generates a structure using the column headers as keys
• opts.header = [‘header1’, ‘header2’, …] will use the specified labels

(default behavior remains: use the first row)

As for controlling the row @notatestuser there is a range option:

• opts.range = n starts from row n (0-indexed), so in your case it would be range=2
• opts.range = range_as_string will use specified range (standard A1:B2 format)
• opts.range = range_object will use the specified range (standard format {s:{r:0,c:0},e:{r:1,c:1}})

(default is to use the entire sheet)
