Python CFFI wrapper for LibreOfficeKit

Project description

A python CFFI wrapper for LibreOfficeKit. Tested in cpython2, cpython3, and pypy.

Requirements

An installation of LibreOffice >= 4.3.0 is required on the same machine

Installation

pip install pylokit

Example

A basic conversion from a rtf file to a doc:

from pylokit import Office

lo_path = "/path/to/libreoffice/program/dir"

with Office(lo_path) as lo:
    with lo.documentLoad("myfile.rtf") as doc:
        doc.saveAs("myfile.doc")

Same conversion passing an explicit format and filter options:

from pylokit import Office

lo_path = "/path/to/libreoffice/program/dir"

with Office(lo_path) as lo:
    with lo.documentLoad("myfile.rtf") as doc:
        doc.saveAs("myfile.doc", fmt="docx", options="skipImages")

The usage of a context manager is needed to properly handle LibreOfficeKit file locking.
