I'm not sure all the code under `@hookimpl` is necessary... but it works :)

```python
from datasette import hookimpl
from datasette.utils.asgi import Response
from openpyxl import Workbook
from openpyxl.writer.excel import save_virtual_workbook
from openpyxl.cell import WriteOnlyCell
from openpyxl.styles import Alignment, Font, PatternFill
from tempfile import NamedTemporaryFile

def render_spreadsheet(rows):
    wb = Workbook(write_only=True)
    ws = wb.create_sheet()
    ws = wb.active
    ws.title = ""decp""

    columns = rows[0].keys()
    headers = []
    for col in columns :
        c = WriteOnlyCell(ws, col)
        c.fill = PatternFill(""solid"", fgColor=""DDEFFF"")
        headers.append(c)
    ws.append(headers)

    for row in rows:
        wsRow = []
        for col in columns:
            c = WriteOnlyCell(ws, row[col])
            if col == ""objet"" :
                c.alignment = Alignment(wrapText = True)
            wsRow.append(c)
        ws.append(wsRow)

    with NamedTemporaryFile() as tmp:
        wb.save(tmp.name)
        tmp.seek(0)
        return Response(
            tmp.read(),
            headers={
                'Content-Disposition': 'attachment; filename=decp.xlsx',
                'Content-type': 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet'
            }
        )

@hookimpl
def register_output_renderer():
    return {""extension"": ""xlsx"",
    ""render"": render_spreadsheet,
    ""can_render"": lambda: False}

```

The key part was to find the right function to wrap the spreadsheet object `wb`. `NamedTemporaryFile()` did it!

I'll update this issue when the plugin is packaged and ready for broader use.","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 1, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",870125126,I'm creating a plugin to export a spreadsheet file (.ods or .xlsx),
