Question

My goal is to simply read an ODS file that was created with Libre Office - Calc.

Using org.apache.odftoolkit:odfdom-java:0.8.8-incubating I open the ODS file and convert the content to scala xml as follows:

val doc = OdfSpreadsheetDocument.loadDocument(classOf[OdfTest].getResourceAsStream("/test.ods"))
val dom: OdfContentDom = doc.getContentDom
val xml = XML.loadString(dom.toString)

This produces the following xml:

How can the XML be converted into a List (spreadsheet) of Lists (rows containing cell data) in Scala?

List(
  List("A", "B", "C"),
  List("1", "2", "3"),
  List("11", "22", "33"),
)
Was it helpful?

Solution

You can use the backslash \ operator to go into the structure. Read the XPath bit of this Scala XML introduction.

val rowsXML = xml \ "body" \ "spreadsheet" \ "table" \ "table-row"
val rows    = rowsXML.map(r => (r \ "table-cell" \ "p").map(_.text))
val rowsNE  = rows.filterNot(_.forall(_.isEmpty))

The last line drops empty rows.
