the zlib allows operations only in memory. It would be great to have possibility to create the Excel file just in memory.

@jmcnamara commented on GitHub (Jul 25, 2017):

It is a good idea and the Perl and Python versions of the library support it.

However, the internal plumbing of libxlsxwriter is based on FILE* pointers and functions so converting it over would be a bit messy. It is the sort of thing that would be more easily done in C++.

So unfortunately it is a "won't fix" for now.
