About OpenXml
#############

OpenXml provides Plone resources for OpenXml documents :

* A set of icons for Office 2007 documents
* A set of PortalTransforms plugins suitable to OpenXml documents
indexing
* OpenXML support for collective.documentfile, ie. an adapter for metadata
and cover image extraction

Requirements
############

* Plone 2.5, Plone 3.x, or Plone 4.0 (note that indexing of OpenXml
documents in ATFile or FileFields only works from Plone 3.x onwards
due to AT changes in field indexing). Likewise, collective.documentfile is
only supported from Plone 4 onwards.

* openxmllib 1.1 (+) for Python:
http://github.com/glenfant/openxmllib/ (or PyPI)

* Note that openxmllib requires the - excellent - lxml. See the
instructions provided in openxmllib documentation.

Note that if you install OpenXml with zc.buildout, you should not care about
installing openxmllib or lxml.


Install
#######

With zc.buildout
----------------

From now, OpenXml is an egg, but you already know it if you're reading
this browsing the pypi site. So to get the latest distro suitable to
your Plone, you only need to add ``Products.OpenXml`` to the eggs list
of your ``buildout.cfg``.

Without zc.buildout
-------------------

::

$ easy_install openxmllib

Install the OpenXml directory from the unzipped egg into your instance Products
folder.

History
#######

1.2.1 (2016-08-28)
##################

* Remove hard dependency on collective.filemeta; it should still be
possible to use Products.OpenXml without it as well.

1.2.0 (2016-06-17)
####################

* Added support for extracting cover page images from OpenXML documents
* Implemented metadata extraction plugin for collective.filemeta

1.1.1 (2012-09-03)
##################

* Added marker file in the profile directory to not execute the import step
every time a third party add-on is installed.
[vincentfretin]

1.1.0
#####

* Updated mimetypes registry unit test to work with Plone 4 as well since
isImplentedBy doesn't exist on InterfaceClass objects.
[davidjb]
* Modified setup handler to overwrite existing mimetype registry entries
as Plone 4 provides a basic implementation.
[davidjb]

1.0.3
#####

* Added dependency on openxmllib 1.0.6 due to API changes and bugfix on large
powerpoint files.
[glenfant]

* Added metadata.xml to the GS-profile to avoid DeprecationWarning "Version for
profile Products.OpenXml:default taken from version.txt"
[WouterVH]

1.0.2
#####

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Products.OpenXml/tags/1.0.2

* Removed unnecessary required eggs.

1.0.1
#####

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Products.OpenXml/tags/1.0.1

* Added Plone 2.5 compatibility. Note that ATFile that ships with Plone 2.5 does
not attempt to index file contents. So only icons and mime types work on a
Vanilla Plone 2.5. If you need support for indexing, consider using
AttachmentField and PloneExFile that fit with Plone 2.5. As a consequence, the
unit test "testATfileSearchableText" fails.
[glenfant]

* Fixed a typo in unit tests.
[glenfant]

1.0.0
#####

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Products.OpenXml/tags/1.0.0

* Added new mime types to the "mimetypes" standard module (should be
done by openxmllib in next release)
[glenfant]

* Transform support when mime type is not provided but the filename is
available.
[glenfant]

* Log the error message and traceback when the user provides a crappy
file.
[glenfant]

1.0.0 beta 1
############

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Products.OpenXml/tags/1.0.0-beta1/

* First public release
