Merges Excell Sheets and Workbooks into one Excel Sheet
This project was designed for a specific use case, but by design it is flexible. Any other uses would require some tweaking of the code, but not much.
xlsxmerge.py requires Python 3+ and the xlrd and xlsxwrite
modules. They can be installed with pip.
To merge file-1.xlsx, file-2.xlsx, etc. into merged.xlsx run:
$ python xlsxmerge.py file-1.xlsx file-2.xlxs [... file-n.xlsx] merged.xlsx
This assumes that the first row of every sheet has a heading. The first row, of the first sheet's file is the one that will be used as a "Master Heading": all the other sheets will be organized according to these headings. If one of the sheets has an additional heading (or differently named heading!), the code will create a new column with this additional heading name.
