Laravel Exports

A powerful Laravel package for exporting large datasets in batches and chunks with support for CSV and XLSX formats. This package provides a clean, fluent API for handling exports efficiently.

Features

✅ Batch & Chunk Processing - Handle large datasets efficiently with configurable chunk sizes
✅ Queue-Based Exports - Process exports asynchronously using Laravel queues
✅ Multiple Formats - Export to both CSV and XLSX formats
✅ Column Mapping - Customize column names and labels
✅ Progress Tracking - Monitor export progress with detailed status information
✅ Query Builder Support - Works with both Eloquent Builder and Query Builder
✅ Fluent API - Laravel-style fluent interface for easy configuration
✅ Relationship Support - Export related model data with aggregations
✅ Custom Formatting - Format dates, numbers, and custom values
✅ Storage Flexibility - Support for local, S3, and custom storage disks
✅ Event System - Listen to export completion events

Requirements

PHP 8.1 or higher
Laravel 10.0, 11.0, or 12.0
Queue driver configured (database, redis, sqs, etc.)

Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require osama-98/laravel-exports

Publish and run the migrations:

# Publish the package migrations
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-exports-migrations

# Publish Laravel's queue migrations (required for job batching)
php artisan queue:batches-table
php artisan migrate

Note: The job_batches table is required for queue batching functionality. If you're using the database queue driver, you'll also need the jobs and failed_jobs tables:

php artisan queue:table
php artisan queue:failed-table
php artisan migrate

The package will automatically register its service provider.

Quick Start

1. Create an Exporter

Create an exporter class that extends Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Exporter:

<?php

namespace App\Exports;

use App\Models\User;
use Carbon\Carbon;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\ExportColumn;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Exporter;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Models\Export;

class UserExporter extends Exporter
{
    public static function getModel(): string
    {
        return User::class;
    }

    public static function getColumns(): array
    {
        return [
            ExportColumn::make('id')
                ->label('ID'),

            ExportColumn::make('name')
                ->label('Full Name'),

            ExportColumn::make('email')
                ->label('Email Address'),

            ExportColumn::make('created_at')
                ->label('Created At')
                ->formatStateUsing(fn ($state) => $state ? Carbon::parse($state)->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') : null),
        ];
    }

    public static function getCompletedNotificationBody(Export $export): string
    {
        return "Your user export has completed with {$export->successful_rows} rows exported.";
    }
}

2. Start an Export

Using the Facade

use App\Exports\UserExporter;
use App\Models\User;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Facades\Export as ExportFacade;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Enums\ExportFormat;

// Basic export to XLSX
$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Xlsx])
    ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

// Export to both CSV and XLSX
$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv, ExportFormat::Xlsx])
    ->chunkSize(500)
    ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

Using Dependency Injection

use App\Exports\UserExporter;
use App\Models\User;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\ExportManager;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Enums\ExportFormat;

public function exportUsers(ExportManager $exportManager)
{
    $export = $exportManager
        ->exporter(UserExporter::class)
        ->chunkSize(500)
        ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv, ExportFormat::Xlsx])
        ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

    return response()->json([
        'export_id' => $export->id,
        'status' => $export->status->value,
        'total_rows' => $export->total_rows,
    ]);
}

3. Check Export Status

use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Models\Export;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Enums\ExportStatus;

$export = Export::find($exportId);

// Check status
if ($export->status === ExportStatus::Completed) {
    // Export is ready
}

// Get progress percentage
$progress = $export->progressPercentage();

4. Download Export File

use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Models\Export;
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Enums\ExportStatus;

public function downloadExport(Export $export, string $format = 'xlsx')
{
    if ($export->status !== ExportStatus::Completed) {
        abort(400, 'Export is not completed yet');
    }

    return $export->download($format);
}

Usage Examples

Export with Custom Column Mapping

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Xlsx])
    ->start(
        User::query(),
        columnMap: [
            'id' => 'User ID',
            'name' => 'Full Name',
            'email' => 'Email Address',
            'created_at' => 'Registration Date',
        ],
        creator: auth()->user()
    );

Export with Query Modification

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->modifyQueryUsing(function ($query, $options) {
        // Filter users created in the last 30 days
        return $query->where('created_at', '>=', now()->subDays(30));
    })
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv])
    ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

Export Specific Records by IDs

$userIds = User::take(100)->pluck('id')->toArray();

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv])
    ->start(User::query(), records: $userIds, creator: auth()->user());

Export with Max Rows Limit

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->maxRows(1000)
    ->chunkSize(200)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv])
    ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

Export with Custom Options

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->options([
        'date_format' => 'Y-m-d',
        'timezone' => 'UTC',
    ])
    ->fileDisk('local')
    ->fileName('custom-users-export')
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Xlsx])
    ->start(User::query(), creator: auth()->user());

Export Using Query Builder

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv])
    ->start(DB::table('users')->where('active', true), creator: auth()->user());

Export to S3

$export = ExportFacade::exporter(UserExporter::class)
    ->fileDisk('s3') // Make sure 's3' disk is configured in config/filesystems.php
    ->formats([ExportFormat::Xlsx])
    ->start(User::query()->limit(1000), creator: auth()->user());

Advanced Features

Custom Column State

Customize how column values are extracted:

ExportColumn::make('full_name')
    ->label('Full Name')
    ->getStateUsing(function ($user) {
        return "{$user->first_name} {$user->last_name}";
    });

// Use dot notation for relationships
ExportColumn::make('profile.bio')
    ->label('Biography');

// Use default value
ExportColumn::make('status')
    ->default('active');

Column Formatting

Format dates, numbers, and add prefixes/suffixes:

ExportColumn::make('price')
    ->label('Price')
    ->prefix('$')
    ->formatStateUsing(fn ($state) => number_format($state, 2));

ExportColumn::make('created_at')
    ->label('Created At')
    ->formatStateUsing(fn ($state) => $state ? Carbon::parse($state)->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') : null);

ExportColumn::make('description')
    ->label('Description')
    ->limit(100); // Limit text length

Relationship Aggregations

Export aggregated data from relationships:

ExportColumn::make('orders_count')
    ->label('Total Orders')
    ->counts('orders');

ExportColumn::make('orders_avg_amount')
    ->label('Average Order Amount')
    ->avg('orders', 'amount');

ExportColumn::make('orders_sum_amount')
    ->label('Total Order Amount')
    ->sum('orders', 'amount');

ExportColumn::make('has_orders')
    ->label('Has Orders')
    ->exists('orders');

Query Modification in Exporter

Modify queries directly in your exporter class:

class UserExporter extends Exporter
{
    public static function modifyQuery($query)
    {
        return $query->where('active', true)
            ->with('profile');
    }
}

XLSX Styling

Customize XLSX cell styles:

use OpenSpout\Common\Entity\Style\Style;
use OpenSpout\Common\Entity\Style\Color;
use OpenSpout\Common\Entity\Style\CellAlignment;

class UserExporter extends Exporter
{
    public function getXlsxCellStyle(): ?Style
    {
        return (new Style())
            ->setFontSize(12)
            ->setFontColor(Color::BLACK);
    }

    public function getXlsxHeaderCellStyle(): ?Style
    {
        return (new Style())
            ->setFontSize(14)
            ->setFontBold()
            ->setFontColor(Color::WHITE)
            ->setBackgroundColor(Color::BLUE)
            ->setCellAlignment(CellAlignment::CENTER);
    }
}

Events

ExportCompleted Event

The ExportCompleted event is dispatched when an export finishes processing. Listen to this event to send notifications or perform post-export actions.

Example Listener:

// In your EventServiceProvider
use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Events\ExportCompleted;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Event;

Event::listen(ExportCompleted::class, function (ExportCompleted $event) {
    $export = $event->export;
    
    // Send notification to user
    if ($export->creator) {
        $export->creator->notify(
            new ExportReadyNotification($export)
        );
    }
    
    // Or log the completion
    Log::info("Export {$export->id} completed with {$export->successful_rows} rows");
});

Example Listener Class:

namespace App\Listeners;

use Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Events\ExportCompleted;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Notification;

class SendExportCompletionNotification
{
    public function handle(ExportCompleted $event): void
    {
        $export = $event->export;
        
        if ($export->creator) {
            $export->creator->notify(
                new ExportReadyNotification($export)
            );
        }
    }
}

Register it in EventServiceProvider:

protected $listen = [
    \Osama\LaravelExports\Exports\Events\ExportCompleted::class => [
        \App\Listeners\SendExportCompletionNotification::class,
    ],
];

Queue Configuration

The package uses Laravel's queue batching system for processing exports. Make sure your queue is properly configured.

Required Database Tables

If you're using the database queue driver, you need the following tables:

job_batches - Required for batch processing (used by this package)
jobs - Required for queue jobs
failed_jobs - Required for failed job tracking

Create these tables:

php artisan queue:batches-table
php artisan queue:table
php artisan queue:failed-table
php artisan migrate

Configure Queue Driver

Configure queue in .env:

QUEUE_CONNECTION=database
# or
QUEUE_CONNECTION=redis

Run queue worker:

php artisan queue:work

For production, use a process manager like Supervisor to keep the queue worker running.
