docstamp
========

Initially it was a conference badge creator based on SVG templates (https://github.com/PythonSanSebastian/pydger), but we thought
it could be more generic and have many other applications.

DocStamp is a generic template renderer which takes the data from a .CSV file or a Google Spreadsheet and creates
one rendered template file for each row of the data.

It is PDF centric, however it can also export in some cases to PNG.

It needs:

- Inkscape or rsvg-convert for .SVG templates, and
- PDFLateX or XeLateX for LateX templates.


CLI Usage
---------

The CSV header fields must match the ones in the template file.::

docstamp create -i badge.csv -t badge_template.svg -o badges

Installation
------------
To install the development version::

pip install git+https://www.github.com/PythonSanSebastian/docstamp.git

To install the latest release::

pip install docstamp


Requirements
------------

See `requirements.txt` file. Also you will need Inkscape, XeLatex, or PDFLatex
installed in your system.

For unicode support in SVG exports, you need to install `rsvg-convert`, which is available in `librsvg-bin`.


Compatibility
-------------
DocStamp is compatible with Python 2 (we wish to believe) and 3.
We could not test it on Windows.
