Announcing xlsxd a OO wrapper for the C library libxlsxwriter [1].

Run:

    import libxlsxd;
    auto workbook  = newWorkbook("demo.xlsx");
    auto worksheet = workbook.addWorksheet("a_worksheet");
    worksheet.write(0, 0, "Hello to Excel from D");


and you have created a Excel spreadsheet in the xlsx format with name demo.xlsx
that contains the string "Hello to Excel from D" in row 0, column 0.

Is there support for reading xlsx files too?

Ah, unfortunately I have no experience working with xlsx or with libxlsx.  I was hoping for read access in D so that I can write a simple utility to extract data from xlsx files.  Maybe next time.

dpp and a handful of vim macros did most of the work

Could you please elaborate a bit on your workflow for D with Vim? I often struggle with the tooling around D but consider Vim as a great tool to use for D development. I am aware of dutyl and also use it but you seem to have more tools at hand ...

E.g. what do you use for debugging, refactoring, ... ?

I had a lot of functions looking like this

    void chart_axis_set_name(lxw_chart_axis* handle, const(char)* name)

I had to transform into

    void setName(string name) {
        chart_axis_set_name(this.handle, toStringz(name));
    }

For that I created a handful of (neo)vim macros that basically it the transformations for me.

On my neovim setup. I use dutly. Dscanner generates ctags recursively when I press F7. Which Ctrl-P uses for jump marks.
I use kdbg to debug, its just a somewhat pretty frontend to gdb. Thats pretty much it.

Many thank! I have followed your setup and it helps :-)
