Excelize is a library written in pure Golang and providing a set of functions that allow you to write to and read from XLSX files. Support reads and writes XLSX file generated by Office Excel 2007 and later. Support save file without losing original charts of XLSX. This library needs Go version 1.8 or later. The full API docs can be seen using go's built-in documentation tool, or online at [godoc.org](https://godoc.org/github.com/Luxurioust/excelize).
With Excelize chart generation and management is as easy as a few lines of code. You can build charts based off data in your worksheet or generate charts without any data in your sheet at all.
xlsx.AddChart("Sheet1", "E1", `{"type":"bar3D","series":[{"name":"=Sheet1!$A$2","categories":"=Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1","values":"=Sheet1!$B$2:$D$2"},{"name":"=Sheet1!$A$2","categories":"=Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1","values":"=Sheet1!$B$3:$D$3"},{"name":"=Sheet1!$A$3","categories":"=Sheet1!$B$1:$D$1","values":"=Sheet1!$B$4:$D$4"}],"title":{"name":"Fruit 3D Line Chart"}}`)
