Bug ID: 159528
Summary: officehelper doesn't function in the context of macOS
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: macOS (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: alain.romede...@libreoffice.org
Description:
officehelper.bootstrap() method seeks for UNO_PATH environment variable which
is not defined. This leads to invoke 'soffice' command in place of fully
qualified 'Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice' command
Steps to Reproduce:
Run embedded Python interpreter or:
1. Install APSO extension
2. Run Python interpreter using APSO
In above Python REPL console:
3. type 'import officehelper as oh'
4. type 'oh.bootstrap()'
5. wait a few seconds
Actual Results:
bootstrap() method raises a NoConnectException:
- as this method does not detect the faulty command it spawns
- as this method fails to connect to a missing process
Expected Results:
bootstrap() connects successfully to '.../soffice' process
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
In order to construct a fully qualified 'soffice' command bootstrap() method
seeks for UNO_PATH environment variable that's missing in the context of macOS.
- LO macOS build process may include an alias for 'soffice' that is mapped to
its fully qualified name
'Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice'
