Example

A possible configuration of this plugin is the next:

 [openOffice-exporter]
 user = john
 psswrd = 1234
 host = localhost
 port = 8100
 styles = Default, Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3
 enum-styles = List 1, List 2, List 3
 num-styles = Numbering 1, Numbering 2, Numbering 3

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.
• styles, enum-styles and num-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:

1. Create a wiki page called WikiTemplateConf
2. Adds to that page a text similar to the next:

      {{{
      template_list= Manual, List
      template_file= manual.odt, list.odt
      }}}
   
   

3. Attach to the page the files 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.

Considerations

For the moment, you must keep in mind next things:

   styles = Default, Heading 1, Heading 2                          Works fine

   styles = Default,Heading 1,Heading 2                            Don't works
