Deprecated call to setCellValueByColumnAndRow

Hi, fixed the issue was causing because the parameters inside the setCellValueByColumnAndRow is now changed and they have to be defined in a new way. So, raised MR for that which fixes the issue. Please review and verify.

MR 27 worked for me, thank you.

This actually caused an error on our project when used with Data export phpspreadsheet → : Error: Call to undefined method PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Worksheet\Worksheet::setCellValueByColumnAndRow() in Drupal\views_data_export\Plugin\views\display\DataExport::processBatch() (line 838 of {...}/modules/contrib/views_data_export/src/Plugin/views/display/DataExport.php).

That module has a composer dependency on "phpoffice/phpspreadsheet": "^1 || ^2". View Data Export does not have a dependency on that library. It does have a dev-dependency on Excel Serialization → , which has a dependency on "phpoffice/phpspreadsheet": "^1.26", but dev-dependencies of a dependency are not loaded by composer for the root project. In any case, there no constraints against loading 2.x of phpoffice/phpspreadsheet, where Worksheet::setCellValueByColumnAndRow() has been removed.

Added a suggestion to the MR for a more minimal diff.

Just flagging that https://git.drupalcode.org/project/xls_serialization/-/commit/aace003203... was committed to xls_serialization so this looks like it will be needed for the next release.

Suggestion from @godotislate on the MR looks good to me

Suggested simplification applied. Please review

Tested MR27

Implementation of the change suggested by godotislate looks good and export using a batch now works as expected.

PHPStan error in pipeline as is per the pipeline on 8.x-1.x-dev so looks good to me.

As mentioned in #8 as there is no hard dependency on the lib version in this module there is a chance users could be running a very old version. (And as mentioned in 8, users could also already be on v2 where this fix is needed for the batch exports to work).

For reference the new method was introduced in version 1.23.0 https://github.com/PHPOffice/PhpSpreadsheet/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#123...

It might be worth calling out in the release notes that users should check to see if they need to update PHPOffice/PhpSpreadsheet

It might make sense to add this to composer.json:

"conflict": {
  "phpoffice/phpspreadsheet": "<1.23.0"
}

See https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#conflict.

Because of the CVEs, it might actually be be better to make that conflict constraint "<2.2.1", but that's possibly out of scope for this issue.

MR27 worked for me also

Hoping This should be committed soon as there is security issue mentioned in https://www.drupal.org/project/views_data_export/issues/3388703#comment-... 🐛 Deprecated call to setCellValueByColumnAndRow RTBC

Bumping to critical since latest version of xls_serialization only supports v2 and we can't do batch exports without this patch now

Updating issue summary to reflect that now this is an error rather than a deprecation report

Uploaded a static patch for composer usage.

Thanks! MR27 worked for me.

+1 to RTBC! Thanks!

I faced the same issue and the above patch works fine.
I guess, such cases should be covered with tests.

+1 to RTBC! Thanks!

Patch #19 worked for me here, thanks!

This patch is working well and is now mandatory. Would be great to have a new version including it!

Thx

Looks like this change has been implemented in the latest push to 8.x-1.x-dev so this patch is no longer required.

Yeah, sorry about that, I didn't appreciate that this issue was here. Thanks for all the effort though.

I think @godotislate makes a great point in #14 and we should probably add that conflict section to our composer.json.

Added that section to 8.x-1.x. Thanks again everyone.
