Delete empty row - openpyxl

May be for someone next code will be useful:

index_row = []

# loop each row in column A
for i in range(1, ws.max_row):
    # define emptiness of cell
    if ws.cell(i, 1).value is None:
        # collect indexes of rows
        index_row.append(i)

# loop each index value
for row_del in range(len(index_row)):
    ws.delete_rows(idx=index_row[row_del], amount=1)
    # exclude offset of rows through each iteration
    index_row = list(map(lambda k: k - 1, index_row))

2018 update: I was searching how to delete a row today and found that the functionality is added in openpyxl 2.5.0-b2. Just tried and it worked perfectly. Here's the link where I found the answer: https://bitbucket.org/openpyxl/openpyxl/issues/964/delete_rows-does-not-work-on-deleting

And here's the syntax to delete one row:

ws.delete_rows(index, 1)

where: 'ws' is the worksheet, 'index' is the row number, and '1' is the number of rows to delete.

There's also the ability to delete columns, but I haven't tried that.

As far as I know openpyxl provides no way to delete rows. You may use COM instead, e.g.:

import win32com.client

filename = 'c:/my_file.xlsx'
sheetname = 'Sheet1'
xl = win32com.client.DispatchEx('Excel.Application')
wb = xl.Workbooks.Open(Filename=filename) 
ws = wb.Sheets(sheetname)

begrow = 1
endrow = ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count
for row in range(begrow,endrow+1): # just an example
  if ws.Range('A{}'.format(row)).Value is None:
    ws.Range('A{}'.format(row)).EntireRow.Delete(Shift=-4162) # shift up

wb.Save()
wb.Close()
xl.Quit()
