I’m making a vbaProject.bin packager in python and looking for anyone with opinions!

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on reddit.com/r/vba

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Access the most powerful time series database as a service
  • SonarQube - Static code analysis for 29 languages.
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • vbaProject-Compiler

    Create a vbaProject.bon file from VBA source files.

    I love the whole continuous integration and development philosophy, but VBA suffers from no automated tools to help. I’ve begun a python project to take raw text VBA source and wrap it into the OLE file named vbaProject.bin, and finally zip it into the xlsm file. The project is on GitHub

  • Rubberduck

    Every programmer needs a rubberduck. COM add-in for the VBA & VB6 IDE (VBE).

    I suppose this is like the opposite of this project: https://rubberduckvba.com

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  • VBA-Better-Array

    An array class for VBA providing features found in more modern languages

    Hesitate to mention it because I haven't had time to look at the enhancement we talked about this weekend at all 😅 but yeah I do use a script like that to import the bas/cls files from the repo into a new workbook every time I do a pull request. https://github.com/Senipah/VBA-Better-Array/blob/master/scripts/createDevWorkbook.ps1
