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 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:

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

Runtime data

There is none. The renderer's css and js are part of the library, so rendering works out of the box; odr_core_data_path() and set_odr_core_data_path(...) are deprecated leftovers that still store and return a path nothing reads.

MIME detection needs no runtime data: mimetype runs the open strategy, so it names what is inside a zip or a compound file. libmagic_database_path() and set_libmagic_database_path(...) are deprecated leftovers of the libmagic backend that used to answer this and could only say application/zip for an .odt; they still store and return a path, but nothing reads it.
