The file

We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Run just this module: ./gradlew dataframe-excel:test (add -Pkotlin.dataframe.debug=true to match CI checks).

    line 36

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.md files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

AGENTS.md — dataframe-excel

Guidance for this module. See the root AGENTS.md for repo-wide build/style/KoDEx rules; only module-specific details are here.

What this module is

dataframe-excel (artifact dataframe-excel, "Excel support for Kotlin DataFrame"). Reads and writes .xls and .xlsx spreadsheets to/from DataFrame, built on Apache POI (poi exposed as api, poi-ooxml as implementation).

Depends on core and, as api, on dataframe-json — JSON is used to write nested DataFrame/DataRow values into Excel cells. That JSON dependency can be excluded downstream if you only write flat frames.

Public API surface (src/main/kotlin/.../io/xlsx.kt)

The whole public API is one file, xlsx.kt:

  • DataFrame.Companion.readExcel(...) — many overloads over the input source (String path/URL, File, URL, InputStream, an already-open POI Workbook, or a single Sheet). Common parameters: sheetName, skipRows, columns (Excel-style column range like "A:C"), stringColumns, rowsCount, nameRepairStrategy, firstRowIsHeader, formattingOptions, parseEmptyAsNull.
  • FormattingOptions / StringColumns.toFormattingOptions(...) — force specific columns to be read as strings using a POI DataFormatter (useful for zip codes, IDs, etc. that shouldn't be parsed as numbers).
  • DataFrame<T>.writeExcel(...) — writes to String path / File; parameters include columnsSelector, sheetName, writeHeader, workBookType (WorkBookType.XLS / WorkBookType.XLSX, default XLSX), and keepFile (append a new sheet to an existing workbook instead of overwriting).

Legacy/deprecated: xlsx.kt also defines Excel, an implementation of the old SupportedDataFrameFormat SPI registered in src/main/resources/META-INF/services/org.jetbrains.kotlinx.dataframe.io.SupportedFormat. That SPI is deprecated (ERROR level, removed in 1.0) — don't build on it; readExcel/writeExcel are the real API.

Tests

  • Tests under src/test/kotlin/.../io/; spreadsheet fixtures in src/test/resources/.
  • Run just this module: ./gradlew dataframe-excel:test (add -Pkotlin.dataframe.debug=true to match CI checks).
