How to create a file with a password?

When the document is opened by execl, it will be prompted for a password.I did not find how to set the password to the file in this project.Thank you for your answer.

Libxlsxwriter only supports worksheet passwords which don't enable encryption and offers very weak protection.

To protect the entire workbook you could use msoffice-crypt. It has a command line application but also a library.
