require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use RKD\PHPExcelFormatter\PHPExcelFormatter;
use RKD\PHPExcelFormatter\Exception\PHPExcelFormatterException;

try {
  // Load file
  $formatter = new PHPExcelFormatter('example1.xls');

  $formatterColumns = array(
    'username' => 'username',
    'phone'    => 'phone_no',
    'email'    => 'email_address'
  );

  // Output columns array (document dosen't have column names on first row)
  // Skip fourth column (age) (third in array), because we don't need that data
  // NOTE: if document dosen't have column names on first line, second parameter for PHPExcelFormatter should be $readColumns = false, otherwise it will skip first line of data
  $formatterColumns = array(
    'username',
    'email_address',
    'phone',
    4 => 'sex'
  );

  // Set our columns
  $formatter->setFormatterColumns($formatterColumns);

  // Output as array
  $output = $formatter->output('a');
  // OR
  // $output = $formatter->output('array');

  // Print array
  echo '<pre>'.print_r($output, true).'</pre>';

  // Set MySQL table
  $formatter->setMySQLTableName('users');

  // Output as mysql query
