xlwings function to find the last row with data
This is very much the same as crazymachu's answer, just wrapped up in a function. Since version 0.9.0 of xlwings you can do this:
import xlwings as xw
def lastRow(idx, workbook, col=1):
""" Find the last row in the worksheet that contains data.
idx: Specifies the worksheet to select. Starts counting from zero.
workbook: Specifies the workbook
col: The column in which to look for the last cell containing data.
"""
ws = workbook.sheets[idx]
lwr_r_cell = ws.cells.last_cell # lower right cell
lwr_row = lwr_r_cell.row # row of the lower right cell
lwr_cell = ws.range((lwr_row, col)) # change to your specified column
if lwr_cell.value is None:
lwr_cell = lwr_cell.end('up') # go up untill you hit a non-empty cell
return lwr_cell.row
Intuitively, the function starts off by finding the most extreme lower-right cell in the workbook. It then moves across to your selected column and then up until it hits the first non-empty cell.
Consolidating the answers above, you can do it in one line:
wb.sheet.range(column + last cell value).Get End of section going up[non blank assuming the last cell is blank].row
Example code:
import xlwings as xw
from xlwings import Range, constants
wb = xw.Book(r'path.xlsx')
wb.sheets[0].range('A' + str(wb.sheets[0].cells.last_cell.row)).end('up').row
