SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Recalculate XLSX formulas and refresh cached values in Node.js without relying on Excel, LibreOffice, or browser automation, enabling deterministic readback in server or CI contexts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnose stale cached formulas in XLSX workbooks, then recalculate only the necessary cells.
  • Read back recalculated values into your app or pipeline, returning reads and diagnostics for validation.
  • Use with external workbooks and streaming-native recalculation to integrate into automated workflows.

Quick Start

Install the package and run bilig-evaluate or xlsx-recalc on a workbook to obtain recalculated readbacks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I recalculate XLSX formulas in Node.js without installing Excel?

You can recalculate XLSX formulas in Node.js without Excel by using this Skill to compute stale cached values directly, returning deterministic readbacks for server and CI contexts.

Why do my XLSX formula values show stale data after editing the workbook programmatically?

Stale XLSX formula values occur because cached results are not automatically updated by external edits. This Skill diagnoses those stale cached formulas and recalculates only the necessary cells to ensure accurate readbacks.

Can I automate XLSX formula recalculation in a CI pipeline without browser automation?

Yes, you can automate XLSX formula recalculation in CI pipelines without browser automation. This Skill provides a CLI and API to process workbooks deterministically, generating CI-friendly reports by recalculating formulas directly.

Does streaming-native recalculation work with external XLSX workbooks?

Yes, streaming-native recalculation works with external XLSX workbooks. This Skill supports integrating automated workflows by recalculating formulas and reading back refreshed values from external sources without requiring Excel.

What is the best way to get deterministic readbacks from an XLSX workbook in a Node service?

The best way to get deterministic readbacks from an XLSX workbook in a Node service is to recalculate formulas using this Skill, which diagnoses stale cells and returns validated reads and diagnostics without relying on external spreadsheet software.
