Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : python-odfpy Version : 0.7 Upstream Author : Søren Roug <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://opendocumentfellowship.com/projects/odfpy * License : GPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Python API and tools to manipulate OpenDocument files
(Not really a long description, but a copy and paste from upstream homepage) Odfpy aims to be a complete API for OpenDocument in Python. Unlike other more convenient APIs, this one is essentially an abstraction layer just above the XML format. The main focus has been to prevent the programmer from creating invalid documents. It has checks that raise an exception if the programmer adds an invalid element, adds an attribute unknown to the grammar, forgets to add a required attribute or adds text to an element that doesn't allow it. These checks and the API itself were generated from the RelaxNG schema, and then hand-edited. Therefore the API is complete and can handle all ODF constructions, but could be improved in its understanding of data types. In addition to the API, there are a few scripts: mailodf - Email ODF file as HTML archive odf2xhtml - Convert ODF to (X)HTML odf2mht - Convert ODF to HTML archive odf2war - Convert ODF to KDE web archive odfimgimport - Import external images odflint - Check ODF file for problems odfmeta - List or change the metadata of an ODF file odfoutline - Show outline of OpenDocument odfuserfield - List or change the user-field declarations in an ODF file xml2odf - Create OD? package from OpenDocument in XML form Take also a look at the contrib folder.
