Export HTML table to Excel in AngularJS

myApp.factory('Excel',function($window){
		var uri='data:application/vnd.ms-excel;base64,',
			template='<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets><x:ExcelWorksheet><x:Name>{worksheet}</x:Name><x:WorksheetOptions><x:DisplayGridlines/></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet></x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml><![endif]--></head><body><table>{table}</table></body></html>',
			base64=function(s){return $window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(s)));},
			format=function(s,c){return s.replace(/{(\w+)}/g,function(m,p){return c[p];})};
		return {
			tableToExcel:function(tableId,worksheetName){
				var table=$(tableId),
					ctx={worksheet:worksheetName,table:table.html()},
					href=uri+base64(format(template,ctx));
				return href;
			}
		};
	})
	.controller('MyCtrl',function(Excel,$timeout){
	  $scope.exportToExcel=function(tableId){ // ex: '#my-table'
			$scope.exportHref=Excel.tableToExcel(tableId,'sheet name');
			$timeout(function(){location.href=$scope.fileData.exportHref;},100); // trigger download
		}
	});

How to use:

	<button class="btn btn-link" ng-click="exportToExcel('#table1')">
		<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-share"></span> Export to Excel
	</button>

Just include only column names and their values. If you are using any dropdown, then take the value of that which is stored in the Scope variable.

This work in IE, Edge, FF and Chrome. Test on IE11.309.16299.0, Edge 41.16299.248.0, FF 59.2.3, Chrome 65.0.3325.181. Hope this help.
But it doesn't work in chrome when the file exceed 2Mb. It's very easy to hit 2Mb when the html consists of a lot of html.

// factory MyApp.factory('Excel', ["$window", function ($window) { var uri = 'data:application/vnd.ms-excel;base64,', template = '<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><meta meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml><x:ExcelWorkbook><x:ExcelWorksheets><x:ExcelWorksheet><x:Name>{worksheet}</x:Name><x:WorksheetOptions><x:DisplayGridlines/></x:WorksheetOptions></x:ExcelWorksheet></x:ExcelWorksheets></x:ExcelWorkbook></xml><![endif]--></head><body><table>{table}</table></body></html>', base64 = function (s) { return $window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(s))); }, format = function (s, c) { return s.replace(/{(\w+)}/g, function (m, p) { return c[p]; }) }; return { tableToExcel: function (tableId, worksheetName, isBase64) { var table = document.querySelector(tableId); var ctx = { worksheet: worksheetName, table: table.innerHTML }; var href = ""; if (isBase64) { href = uri + base64(format(template, ctx)); } else { href = uri + format(template, ctx); } return href; } }; }]); // controller MyApp.controller('MyController', ["$scope", "$timeout", "Excel", function ($scope, $timeout, Excel) { $scope.exportToExcel = function (tableId) { var browser = window.navigator.appVersion; var useBlobBuilder = false; // IE, Edge if ((browser.indexOf('Trident') !== -1 && browser.indexOf('rv:11') !== -1) || (browser.indexOf('MSIE 10') !== -1) || (document.documentMode || /Edge/.test(browser))) { useBlobBuilder = true; $scope.exportHref = Excel.tableToExcel(tableId, 'sheet name', false); } else { //FF, Chrome useBlobBuilder = false; $scope.exportHref = Excel.tableToExcel(tableId, 'sheet name', true); } $timeout(function () { var fileName = "testing.xls"; if (useBlobBuilder) { // IE, Edge var builder = new window.MSBlobBuilder(); builder.append($scope.exportHref); var blob = builder.getBlob('data:application/vnd.ms-excel'); window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(blob, fileName); } else { //FF, Chrome var link = document.createElement('a'); link.download = fileName; link.href = $scope.exportHref; if (document.body != null) { document.body.appendChild(link); } link.click(); link.remove(); } }, 100); } }]);

Working fine in Firefox. But not fully working in chrome... if the file size is more its redirecting to blank page.

Any solution?

if the code for download with a custom filename don't work in Firefox, change the else part in tableToExcel with:

var link = document.createElement('a');
link.setAttribute("type", "hidden"); // hide link
link.download = fileName;
link.href = uri + base64(format(template, ctx));
document.body.appendChild(link); //Required for Firefox
link.click();
link.remove();

And add in template, before </head>
<style><!-- table {mso-displayed-decimal-separator: "\.";mso-displayed-thousand-separator: "\,";} --></style>
For specify thousands separator and decimal separator.
