pyodr — Python bindings for OpenDocument.core

Decode office documents (ODF, OOXML, legacy MS binary, PDF, CSV, ...) and render them to HTML from Python.

import pyodr

file = pyodr.open("document.odt")
print(pyodr.file_type_to_string(file.file_type()))

service = pyodr.html.translate(file, "cache-dir", pyodr.HtmlConfig())
html = service.bring_offline("output-dir")
for page in html.pages():
    print(page.name, page.path)

A small CLI is included: pyodr <file> renders a document and opens it in the browser; pyodr <file> --serve hosts it over HTTP (via the core HTTP server, available when built with ODR_WITH_HTTP_SERVER).

Building

The bindings are part of the main CMake build, toggled by ODR_PYTHON:

conan install . -o '&:with_python=True' --build missing
cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=conan_toolchain.cmake -DODR_PYTHON=ON
cmake --build build --target pyodr_core
PYTHONPATH=build/python ODR_CORE_DATA_PATH=build/data python -m pytest python/tests

pip install . from the repository root builds a wheel via scikit-build-core (see the root pyproject.toml); run conan install first and point CMAKE_ARGS at the generated conan_toolchain.cmake so the C++ dependencies resolve. Wheels build without pdf2htmlEX/wvWare/libmagic (their runtime data cannot ship inside the wheel), so match those options:

conan install . -o '&:with_python=True' -o '&:with_pdf2htmlEX=False' \
    -o '&:with_wvWare=False' -o '&:with_libmagic=False' --build missing
CMAKE_ARGS="-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$PWD/conan_toolchain.cmake" pip install .

Runtime data

Rendering uses shipped assets (CSS/JS). Wheels bundle them under pyodr/data and pick them up automatically; for in-tree builds set the environment variable ODR_CORE_DATA_PATH (the tests read it) or call pyodr.GlobalParams.set_odr_core_data_path(...).
