OpenOffice::OODoc::Intro Description
OpenOffice::OODoc::Intro is a Perl module for an introduction to the Open OpenDocument Connector. OpenOffice::OODoc::Intro is a Perl module for an introduction to the Open OpenDocument Connector.The main goal of the Open OpenDocument Connector (OODoc) is to allow quick application development in 2 areas:- replacement of old-style, proprietary, client-based macros for intensive and non-interactive document processing;- direct read/write operations by enterprise software on office documents, and/or document-driven applications.OODoc provides an abstraction of the document objects and isolates the programmer from low level XML navigation, UTF8 encoding and file compression details. For example: use OpenOffice::OODoc; my $document = ooDocument(file => 'filename.odt'); $document->appendParagraph ( text => 'Some new text', style => 'Text body' ); $document->appendTable("My Table", 6, 4); $document->cellValue("My Table", 2, 1, "New value"); $document->save;The script above appends a new paragraph, with given text and style, and a table with 6 lines and 4 columns, to an existing document, then inserts a value at a given position in the table. It takes much less time than the opening of the document with your favourite text processor, and can be executed without any desktop software connection. A program using this library can run without any OpenOffice.org installation (and, practically, OODoc has been tested on platforms where OpenOffice.org is not available yet).More generally, OpenOffice::OODoc provides a lot of methods (probably most of them are not useful for you) allowing create/search/update/delete operations with document elements such as:- ordinary text containers (paragraphs, headings, item lists); - tables and cells; - sections; - images; - styles; - page layout; - metadata (i.e. title, subject, and other general properties).
