Welcome Madusan,

We previously had two of our community members working on a site, one of
which was creating a REST endpoint (I believe it was all in JAVA) for drill
and the other was working on hooking it up to a front-end. The development
has slowed down a bit in recent months, and nothing was ever added to the
central repository. I can try to message them directly to get them
connected with you, they could probably share their work so far through a
personal github fork.

We actually just recently gained CSV reader support (earlier we had been
focused on getting some high performance formats working with Drill). Jacques
in currently in the process of merging this work, which will come from the
Hive serde support, along with a number of other formats like thrift and
sequence file and ORC.

There is currently no support for reading xls files, something you could
certainly work on adding if you have a need for it. I have written one of
our current storage engines and would be happy to talk some time about how
everything is setup to get you started.
