'XlsxWriter' object has no attribute 'save'. Did you mean: '_save'?

excel, pandas, python, xlsxwriter

Solution

The `save()` method has been deprecated and removed in Pandas. You should use `close()` instead.

With older versions of Pandas you would have gotten this warning:

FutureWarning: save is not part of the public API, usage can give unexpected results and will be removed in a future version

With more recent versions you just need to use `close()` like this (I also fixed the syntax for the chart values):

import pandas as pd
import xlsxwriter

data = {
    "Name": ["John", "Jane", "Adam"],
    "Age": [25, 30, 35],
    "Gender": ["M", "F", "M"],
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

writer = pd.ExcelWriter("output.xlsx", engine="xlsxwriter")
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name="Sheet1")

workbook = writer.book
worksheet = writer.sheets["Sheet1"]

# Example: Adding a chart
chart = workbook.add_chart({"type": "line"})
chart.add_series({"values": "=Sheet1!$C$2:$C$4"})
worksheet.insert_chart("E2", chart)

writer.close()

Output:

Problem

I'm trying to save data from a dataframe in excel file by using pandas. I was trying the following code. ``` import pandas as pd import xlsxwriter data = {'Name': ['John', 'Jane', 'Adam'], 'Age': [25, 30, 35], 'Gender': ['M', 'F', 'M']} df = pd.DataFrame(data) writer = pd.ExcelWriter('output.xlsx', engine='xlsxwriter') df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet1') workbook = writer.book worksheet = writer.sheets['Sheet1'] # Example: Adding a chart chart = workbook.add_chart({'type': 'line'}) chart.add_series({'values': '=Sheet1.$B$2:$B$4'}) worksheet.insert_chart('D2', chart) writer.save() ``` But I get the following error: ``` writer.save() ^^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: 'XlsxWriter' object has no attribute 'save'. Did you mean: '_save'? ``` Does anyone know how to solve it?
