php - Skip First Row in PHPSpreadsheet Import

Solution:

You need to detect, when it is the first row, a binary variable like this helps

<?php
require '../vendor/autoload.php';
if (pathinfo($_FILES['upexcel']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION) == 'csv') {
  $reader = new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Reader\Csv();
} else {
  $reader = new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Reader\Xlsx();
}
$spreadsheet = $reader->load($_FILES['upexcel']['tmp_name']);

$worksheet = $spreadsheet->getActiveSheet();
$sql = "INSERT INTO `testCommission` (`One`, `two`, `three`, `four`, `five`, `six`, `seven`) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)";
$isheader = 0;
foreach ($worksheet->getRowIterator() as $row) {
  // Fetch data
  if($isheader > 0) {
      $cellIterator = $row->getCellIterator();
      $cellIterator->setIterateOnlyExistingCells(false);
      $data = [];
      foreach ($cellIterator as $cell) {
          $data[] = $cell->getValue();
      }
  } else 
  { $isheader = 1; }
}
?>

Solution:

Use a filter class. See docs: https://phpspreadsheet.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/reading-files/#reading-only-specific-columns-and-rows-from-a-file-read-filters

Don't forget the autoload:

require_once ( 'vendor/autoload.php' );

Create a filter:

class FirstRowFilter implements \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Reader\IReadFilter
{
    public function readCell($column, $row, $worksheetName = '') {
        //  Return true for rows after first row
        return $row > 0;
    }
}

Apply to the reader:

$reader = \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::createReader("Xlsx");

$filterRow = new FirstRowFilter();

$reader->setReadFilter($filterRow);

Load file:

$spreadsheet = $reader->load($file);

The reader will only load rows after the specified row.
