Installation and Configuration
This plugin has been developed with python-uno 2.4.1, BeautifulSoup 3.0.7a and python-imaging-library (PIL).
Note: The plugin has been tested with OpenOffice 3.2, Python UNO 3.2 and Trac 0.12.1 and works fine.
Python-uno is not installed by default. For install it, depends of OS:
- Linux: If your Linux uses apt, you can install python-uno with the next command:
apt-get install python-uno python-beautifulsoup python-imaging
- With Debian Lenny 5.0, if you want to run soffice with
-headless
option, you must install these following packages too:apt-get install openoffice.org openoffice.org-headless openoffice.org-java-common
- With Debian Lenny 5.0, if you want to run soffice with
- Mac: I can't install python-uno in mac.
- Windows: The next article can be interesting : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Using_Python_on_Windows
Before use, you must start Open Office in service mode. To start Office in this mode, use a command like this:
soffice "-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;" -headless (1) soffice -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager (2)
The version of Open Office used in the development of the plugin was the 2.4.
- (1) Openoffice 2.4 with headless without framebuffer.
- (2) Standard Openoffice server with X
Example
A possible configuration of this plugin is the next:
[openOffice-exporter] user = john psswrd = 1234 host = localhost port = 8100 para-styles = Text Body, Default, Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3, ..., Heading 10 list-styles = List 1, Numbering 1, Numbering 2, Numbering 3 char-styles = Default, Source Text, Internet Link isPersonalizeAttribute = False
A brief description of the fields:
- user and psswrd: If the trac project needs authentication, for export the images you need to pass a user and a password for construct a url that urllib can open.
- host and port: When you start the soffice in service mode, you must specify a host and a port where the service accepts the connections. By default in this plugin, these values are localhost and 8100.
- para-styles, list-styles and char-styles: Are the styles that you want to use of the open office to export the wiki pages.
All this fields are optional, but the default configuration of this plugin if for the spanish version of the Open Office.
When this plugin is active, appears three new options in the wiki pages:
Since r5057, this plugin accepts a basic template system. This system works as follow:
- Create a wiki page called WikiTemplateConf
- Adds to that page a text similar to the next:
{{{ template_list= .+, Manual, List template_file= default.odt, manual.odt, list.odt }}}
- template_list, regular expresion of wikipagenames.
- template_file, template file apply to wikipage.
- Attach to the page the files default.odt, manual.odt, list.odt (or those who have written in the template_file section)
Once this is done, when you export a wiki page, if the page name starts with a name written in the template_list section, the document created use the template defined in the WikiTemplateConf page.
Caveats
The listed values must be separated by both a comma and a space:
styles = Default, Heading 1, Heading 2 Works fine styles = Default,Heading 1,Heading 2 Doesn't work
