# Document Handling Examples
|
|
|
|
These examples are somehow similar to DocumentLoader in C++ and Java.
|
|
To get started, first start LibreOffice listening on port 2083
|
|
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/soffice "--accept=socket,port=2083;urp;"
|
|
|
|
Each example script accepts `-h` to show the usage, e.g.
|
|
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentLoader.py -h
|
|
|
|
You should use `setsdkenv_unix` for Unix/Linux and `setsdkenv_windows.bat` for
|
|
Windows. In this way, the LibreOffice internal Python interpreter will be used.
|
|
|
|
## Document Converter
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentConverter.py ./tests/ "MS Word 97" doc /tmp/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command searches LibreOffice documents recursively under directory
|
|
`./tests` and convert every found document to format Microsoft Word 97. The
|
|
converted document can be found under directory `/tmp`.
|
|
|
|
## Document Loader
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentLoader.py ./tests/hello.odt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command opens document `./tests/hello.odt` in a separate window.
|
|
|
|
This script also accepts option to open an empty document. For example, to open
|
|
an empty spreadsheet document:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentLoader.py --calc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Document Printer
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentPrinter.py myprinter ./tests/hello.odt "1-3"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command prints the first three pages of document `./tests/hello.odt` on
|
|
printer `myprinter `. You can also specify the page range in various format,
|
|
e.g. `1,3-5`.
|
|
|
|
## Document Saver
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH/python DocumentSaver.py path/to/hello.doc path/to/hello.odt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command saves a Word document `hello.doc` as an OpenDocument file `hello.odt`.
