redomino.odttransforms 0.1

ODT templating transforms

redomino.odttransforms
======================

It register a new portal transforms that let you generate odt files for a given .odt template.

This products is very simple: it just interpolates odt variables with the given ones you pass calling the transformer.
Therefore it performs just variable substitutions, not a real odt templating processor.
No external bynaries are needed, it depends on http://ooopy.sourceforge.net/.

This plugin is meant for developers, it could be used for generating odt files, write a custom PloneFormGen adapter, etc.

Example:

from zope.component import getUtility
from Products.PortalTransforms.interfaces import IPortalTransformsTool

portal_transforms = getUtility(IPortalTransformsTool)
converter = portal_transforms.convertTo(target_mimetype='application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text.transformed',
orig=file_contents,
mimetype='application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text',
mapper=dict(plone_version='4.3.2-sunny-day-beta'),
