# A writer for Elixlsx library that support writing large excel file


## Example

```elixir
sheet = %Sheet{name: "Sheet 1", rows: []}
      sheet2 = %Sheet{name: "Sheet 2", rows: []}
      sheet3 = %Sheet{name: "Sheet 3", rows: []}
      wb = Workbook.append_sheet(%Workbook{}, sheet)
      |> Workbook.append_sheet(sheet2)
      |> Workbook.append_sheet(sheet3)

      writer = ElixlsxWriter.init(wb, "output/hello2.xlsx")

      writer = "priv/test.csv"
      |> File.stream!(read_ahead: 100_000)
      |> MyParser.parse_stream()
      |> Stream.chunk_every(1000)
      |> Enum.reduce(writer, fn chunk, writer ->
        ElixlsxWriter.increment_write(writer, "Sheet 1", chunk)
        |> ElixlsxWriter.increment_write( "Sheet 2", chunk)
        |> ElixlsxWriter.increment_write( "Sheet 3", chunk)
      end)
      |> ElixlsxWriter.finalize()

      IO.puts "Done writing"
```
