如何将Excel工作表列映射到数据库中的列？

Question

I need to read an excel file and upload the data from the excel sheet to the database.

The excel sheet will have information of users like firstname, lastname, email, age, joining date, country, etc.

I will also have similar User table in the database.

I just need to read each row from excel sheet and insert into table.

But for this I need to know which column in excel will go into which column in db tables.

I plan to do this with the static mapping of column names in table( ie property names of user java bean) to the corresponding indexes in the excel sheet.

eg lastName maps to index 2 in the excel sheet.

Please help me if this is the right approach?

What is the best possible way of doing this?

Answer 1

THis is alright. You can also have the top row as heading, (if creating the Excel sheet is in your control) to verify the fields. It's pretty straight forward to do this:

1. Use Apache POI to read Excel sheet.
2. Add using JDBC batch insert .

Answer 2

Please follow the below steps for the reading from excel and inserting in to the database.

1.its simple API provided by the Apache. pointo tbe noted .Please make sure the file name and tab name is unique. 2. Also it will be easier to read from the csv file so that it can be inserted in the database normal control files and you will get the enough support from the oracle.
