ExcelToSqlImporter

A lightweight .NET library to import Excel files into SQL Server using SqlBulkCopy.
This utility reads Excel files via ClosedXML and efficiently inserts data into an existing SQL Server table.


✨ Features

  • Reads Excel files (.xlsx, .xlsm, .xltx, .xltm).
  • Imports data into an existing SQL Server table.
  • Uses SqlBulkCopy for high-performance inserts.
  • Simple and easy-to-use API.

📦 Installation

Install-Package ExcelToSqlImporter

Or using .NET CLI:

dotnet add package ExcelToSqlImporter

🚀 Usage in Console Application

using ExcelToSqlImporter;

string connectionString = "Server=.;Database=YourDb;Trusted_Connection=True;";

// Initialize the service
var excelToSql = new ExcelToSqlService(connectionString);

// Import Excel data into an existing table
excelToSql.ImportExcelToTable(@"C:\path\to\file.xlsx", "People");

🌐 Usage in ASP.NET Core Web API

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using ExcelToSqlImporter;
using System.IO;

namespace ExcelToSQLNuget.Controllers
{
    [ApiController]
    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    public class ExcelController : ControllerBase
    {
        private readonly string _conn =
            "Server=STARTBIT\\SQLEXPRESS;Database=TestCustomNuget;Trusted_Connection=True;";

        [HttpPost("upload")]
        public IActionResult Upload(IFormFile file)
        {
            if (file == null) return BadRequest("Upload a file.");

            var path = Path.GetTempFileName();
            using var stream = System.IO.File.Create(path);
            file.CopyTo(stream);

            new ExcelToSqlService(_conn).ImportExcelToTable(path, "People");

            System.IO.File.Delete(path);
            return Ok("Imported successfully!");
        }
    }
}

⚠️ Notes

  • This library does not auto-create tables. The table must exist in SQL Server.
  • All data is inserted as text unless SQL Server handles conversion.
  • Best for quick Excel-to-SQL imports in console apps or APIs.
