How to Generate Excel from JSON Data Using Asp.net(C#).

Here I will explain how to generate excel from json.
I am using NPOI and Newtonsoft.Json third party dll for this.

Download dll from here :  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2UW8NPznIKsdzJSWDBDX2xLSms/view

JSON For Test : [   {     "ID" : "1",     "NAME" : "Nikhil Sangani",     "MOBILENO" : "123456789",     "DESIGNATION" : "Web Developer"  } ]


First of all i am create aspx page design like this.


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <table>
            <tr>
                <td>
                    JSON STRING :<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txtjsonstring"></asp:TextBox>
                </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td>
                    <asp:Button runat="server" ID="BtnExcel" Text="Excel" OnClick="BtnExcel_Click" />
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>


After that put this code on your code behind file.

How To Deploy .net Core Application On Linux

Here, I can explain steps to deploy .net core application on linux machine. Step 1 - Publish your .net Core application: First, create a .net core application on VS; you can make an MVC project or Web API project and if you already have an existing project, then open it. Right Click on your project Click on publish Now create a new publish profile, and browse the folder where you want to publish your project dll Click on publish so it will create your dll in the folder Step 2 - Install required .net Module on Linux: Now we have our web application dll and now we need to host it on the Linux environment. First, we need to understand how the deployment works in Linux. .Net applications run on Kestrel servers and we run Apache or Nginx server in Linux environments, which acts as a proxy server and handles the traffic from outside the machine and redirects it to the Kestrel server so we will have Apache or Nginx server as the middle layer. In this article, we will use Apache as a proxy ser...

How To Implement NLog With WebAPI In Asp.Net(C#).

What is NLog? NLog is a flexible and free logging platform for various .NET platforms, including .NET standard. NLog is easy to apply and it includes several targets (database, file, event viewer). Which platform support it? .NET Framework 3.5, 4, 4.5, 4.6 & 4.7 .NET Framework 4 client profile Xamarin Android Xamarin iOS Windows Phone 8 Silver light 4 and 5 Mono 4 ASP.NET 4 (NLog.Web package) ASP.NET Core (NLog.Web.AspNetCore package) .NET Core (NLog.Extensions.Logging package) .NET Standard 1.x - NLog 4.5 .NET Standard 2.x - NLog 4.5 UWP - NLog 4.5 There are several log levels. Fatal : Something terrible occurred; the application is going down  Error : Something fizzled; the application might possibly proceed Warn : Something surprising; the application will proceed  Info : Normal conduct like mail sent, client refreshed profile and so on.  Debug : For troubleshooting; the executed question, the client confirmed, ...
