Read Excel cell value and de-serialize using C#

Question

I have an Excel sheet in which I have values which are similar to this:

<Element id="1" Name="Some Name" Value="4" Unit="Some UNit" />

Now from my C# code, I'm reading this Excel.

I have a class file in my application similar to

public class InputData{

  [DataMember(Name = "id")]
  public string id { get; set; }

  [DataMember(Name = "Name")]
  public string Name { get; set; }

    [DataMember(Name = "Value")]
  public string Value { get; set; }

    [DataMember(Name = "Unit")]
  public string Unit { get; set; }
}

I'm able to read the cell value using following code :

foreach (var worksheet in Workbook.Worksheets(@"C:\Test\Book1.xlsx"))
            {
                foreach (var row in worksheet.Rows)
                {
                    foreach (var cell in row.Cells)
                    {
                        Console.WriteLine(cell.Text);
                    }
                }
            }

I have followed this link to do so.
Now my requirement is to deserialize the cell value and form a list of InputData.

List<InputData> lst = new List<InputData>();

InputData inputData = new InputData;
inputData.id ="" ; //assign value
inputData.Name ="" ; //assign value
inputData.Value ="" ; //assign value
inputData.Unit ="" ; //assign value

lst.Add(inputData);

I want to add this in the loop, but I do not know how to deserialize this cell value as it is not exactly XML format. The only crude way I could think of is split based on spaces and access the values.

Is a better solution available?

Note

I was not clear before, but I what I meant was each cell in my Excel has this similar type of data. I'm trying to loop through each cell and make a list.

EDIT

foreach (var row in worksheet.Rows)
{
     foreach (var cell in row.Cells)
     {
          Console.WriteLine(cell.Text);    

       Console.WriteLine(XDocument.Parse(cell.Text).Root.Attribute("id").Value);

          Console.ReadLine();
      }
}

In the first line , it prints this as mentioned above.

<Element id="1" Name="Some Name" Value="4" Unit="Some UNit" />

Answer 1

您可以使用XDocument.Parse ，例如：

inputData.id = XDocument.Parse(cell.Text).Root.Attribute("id").Value
