Installation

Installation

Aspose.Cells FOSS for Go installs as a standard Go module with no external dependencies and no native Office libraries to configure.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Add the module

Run go get inside your module’s directory to add Aspose.Cells FOSS for Go as a dependency:

go get github.com/aspose-cells-foss/Aspose.Cells-FOSS-for-Go/v26

This adds an entry to your project’s go.mod and go.sum.

Step 2: Import the package

Import the package under the cells_foss alias used throughout its own examples and documentation:

import cells_foss "github.com/aspose-cells-foss/Aspose.Cells-FOSS-for-Go/v26/aspose/cells_foss"

Step 3: Verify the installation

Build a minimal program that creates a Workbook to confirm the module resolves and compiles correctly:

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	cells_foss "github.com/aspose-cells-foss/Aspose.Cells-FOSS-for-Go/v26/aspose/cells_foss"
)

func main() {
	wb := cells_foss.NewWorkbook()
	fmt.Println("Aspose.Cells FOSS for Go is ready:", len(wb.Worksheets), "worksheet(s)")
}

Run it with go run . — a successful build with no import errors confirms the installation.
