feishu-docx

Feishu knowledge base export, writing, and cloud-space management tool with Markdown, WeChat import, CLI, TUI, and OAuth 2.0

PyPI version Python 3.11+ License: MIT

中文 | English

feishu-docx TUI

🆕 Recent Updates (v0.2.8)

  • PDF table line breaks and inline code combined with bold, italic, or strikethrough now render correctly, while other raw HTML remains escaped (#37)
  • Card-view links retain their titles and destinations; encoded URLs are preserved correctly
  • Refreshed project icon and added public-document Markdown/PDF end-to-end regression coverage

Upgrade with pip install --upgrade "feishu-docx[pdf]" for PDF export, or uv tool upgrade feishu-docx for an existing uv tool installation.

⚡ Quick Start (30 seconds)

Install

Recommended: uv tool install (isolated, no conflicts with system Python)

uv tool install feishu-docx

Optional features are installed separately to keep the core package lightweight:

# PDF export: --pdf, --pdf-template, --pdf-logo, syntax highlighting
uv tool install 'feishu-docx[pdf]'

# Browser-based export: export-browser
uv tool install 'feishu-docx[browser]'
playwright install chromium

Or run directly without installing:

uvx feishu-docx export "https://my.feishu.cn/wiki/xxx"

If you don't have uv yet: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Alternative: pip install (works inside a virtual environment or with --break-system-packages)

pip install feishu-docx

Optional extras also work with pip:

pip install 'feishu-docx[pdf]'
pip install 'feishu-docx[browser]'
playwright install chromium

Quote extras such as 'feishu-docx[pdf]' in shells like zsh, otherwise the [] may be treated as a glob pattern.

⚠️ pip install outside a virtual environment may fail with externally-managed-environment on modern Linux/macOS (PEP 668). Use a virtual environment or uv tool install instead.

Configure and Export

# Configure credentials (one-time)
feishu-docx config set --app-id YOUR_APP_ID --app-secret YOUR_APP_SECRET

# Export! (auto-obtains tenant_access_token, no OAuth needed)
feishu-docx export "https://my.feishu.cn/wiki/KUIJwaBuGiwaSIkkKJ6cfVY8nSg"

# Create a Feishu doc directly from a WeChat article
feishu-docx create --url "https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/xxxxx"

# Manage app cloud-space documents
feishu-docx drive ls --type docx

# Optional: Use OAuth mode for user-level permissions
# feishu-docx config set --auth-mode oauth && feishu-docx auth

playwright install chromium

If you are working inside a virtual environment:

pip install 'feishu-docx[browser]'
playwright install chromium
# Export single document to specific directory
feishu-docx export "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx" -o ./docs

# Choose display values or formulas for Sheets (affects Sheet and embedded Sheet only)
feishu-docx export "https://xxx.feishu.cn/wiki/xxx" --table md --sheet-value-mode display
feishu-docx export "https://xxx.feishu.cn/wiki/xxx" --table md --sheet-value-mode formula

# Export a public or browser-readable doc in a real browser session
feishu-docx export-browser "https://xxx.larkoffice.com/wiki/xxx" -o ./browser_docs

# Fetch a WeChat article and create a Feishu doc
feishu-docx create --url "https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/xxxxxx"

# List app cloud-space documents in tenant mode
feishu-docx drive ls --type docx

# Manage public permission of a document
feishu-docx drive perm-show "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx"
feishu-docx drive perm-set "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx" --share-entity anyone_can_view

# Clear files in cloud space with double confirmation
feishu-docx drive clear --type docx

# Use token directly
feishu-docx export "URL" -t your_access_token

# Launch TUI
feishu-docx tui

Python API

from feishu_docx import FeishuExporter

# Initialize (uses tenant_access_token by default)
exporter = FeishuExporter(app_id="xxx", app_secret="xxx")

# Export single document
path = exporter.export("https://xxx.feishu.cn/wiki/xxx", "./output")

# Get content without saving
content = exporter.export_content("https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx")

# Export with PDF (requires: uv tool install 'feishu-docx[pdf]' or pip install 'feishu-docx[pdf]')
path = exporter.export("https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx", "./output", pdf=True)

# Export with company-branded PDF template
from pathlib import Path
path = exporter.export(
    "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx",
    "./output",
    pdf=True,
    pdf_template=Path("./brand.css"),
    pdf_logo=Path("./logo.svg"),
    syntax_style="solarized-light",  # optional Pygments theme
)

# Export a public or browser-readable doc via a real browser session
browser_path = exporter.export_with_browser(
    "https://xxx.larkoffice.com/wiki/xxx",
    "./browser_output",
)

# Get browser-based export content without saving
browser_content = exporter.export_content_with_browser(
    "https://xxx.larkoffice.com/wiki/xxx",
)

# Batch export entire wiki space
result = exporter.export_wiki_space(
    space_id="xxx",
    output_dir="./wiki_backup",
    max_depth=3,
)
print(f"Exported {result['exported']} docs to {result['space_dir']}")

🔐 Feishu App Setup

  1. Create app at Feishu Open Platform
  2. Add redirect URL: http://127.0.0.1:9527/
  3. Request permissions:
"docx:document:readonly"  # 查看云文档
"wiki:wiki:readonly"  # 查看知识库
"drive:drive:readonly"  # 查看云空间文件(图片下载)
"sheets:spreadsheet:readonly"  # 查看电子表格
"bitable:app:readonly"  # 查看多维表格
"board:whiteboard:node:read"  # 查看白板
"contact:contact.base:readonly"  # 获取用户基本信息(@用户名称)
"offline_access"  # 离线访问(获取 refresh_token)
  1. Save credentials:
feishu-docx config set --app-id cli_xxx --app-secret xxx

🔑 Authentication Modes

Tenant Mode (Default) OAuth Mode
Token Type tenant_access_token user_access_token
Setup Configure permissions in Open Platform Request permissions during OAuth flow
User Interaction ✅ Automatic, no user action needed ❌ Requires browser authorization
Access Scope Documents the app has permission to Documents the user has permission to
Best For Server automation, AI Agents Accessing user's private documents

Tenant Mode (Recommended for most cases):

# One-time setup
feishu-docx config set --app-id xxx --app-secret xxx

# Export (auto-obtains tenant_access_token)
feishu-docx export "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx"

⚠️ Tenant mode requires pre-configuring document permissions in Feishu Open Platform → App Permissions.

Cloud space management (tenant/user):

# Tenant mode: manage files in app cloud space
feishu-docx drive ls --type docx

# OAuth mode: manage files in personal cloud space
feishu-docx drive ls --auth-mode oauth --type docx

📎 Feishu separates cloud space by token type: tenant_access_token maps to app cloud space, and user_access_token maps to personal cloud space. App cloud space resources cannot be managed from the UI and should be managed through Drive/File APIs.

OAuth Mode (For user-level access):

# One-time setup
feishu-docx config set --app-id xxx --app-secret xxx --auth-mode oauth
feishu-docx auth  # Opens browser for authorization

# Export (uses cached user_access_token)
feishu-docx export "https://xxx.feishu.cn/docx/xxx"

💡 OAuth mode requests permissions during the authorization flow, no pre-configuration needed.
