Adding password to Xlsx files

Hi everyone, I am wondering if it is possible to add password to an Xlsx file in Elixir. I am using elixlsx for the files generations, but it seems to lack this option. Other dependencies in Elixir seem to lack that option too… so I’m starting to think that I might have to spawn a process for running a simple python script (not my favorite solution). Thanks in advance.

I don’t see protect in elixlsx so you’d have to use the lower level library xml_stream.
