Is there a good guide to learn how to export some fields to a xls file (Excel)?

Question

I have to give the user the possibility to print some fields in a PDF or export the same fields to a XLS file. The first part is done but I do not have any idea of how to do the second part. Is there any good tutorial or something which could help me to learn this? By the way, is there a more detailed guide about development in Odoo than the official one?

You can use the ExcelExport [1] class.

See for instance how the web_export_view module does it [2]

[1] https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/7.0/addons/web/controllers/main.py#L1667
[2] https://github.com/OCA/web-addons/blob/master/web_export_view/controllers.py#L31
