[SOLVED] Unable to locate package php7.0-phpoffice/phpspreadsheet

Issue

I have "Ubuntu 16.04 LTS" OS and trying to install phpoffice/phpspreadsheet using command:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-phpoffice/phpspreadsheet

Getting error message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package php7.0-phpoffice
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'php7.0-phpoffice'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'php7.0-phpoffice'

Solution

Extension gd is required and i can't find the package in my php7.0 version. The following commands used to install the extension gd.

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.0
sudo apt-get install php7.0-gd

Then we can use composer require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet
