ReleasesWhat is plone.oofill ?
Plone.oofill is a plone3/zope3 utility.
It uses opendocuments and page templates in order to populate the opendocument.
How can I use plone.oofill ?
End user point of view
You create a document in plone, based on a template (see AROnlineDeskFile ). You get an action that allows you to populate your newly created document based on plone contents.
Your document gets populated. You can edit it with ExternalEditor (see ZopeExternalEditor) and save it as many times as you want.
If needed, you can re-populate your document ; your modifications are kept (opendocuments only).
You can export your document to PDF or MS Office, etc.
Developper point of view
It is verry easy to create new templates : open your opendocument file in openoffice.org ; create named sections with a specific name (see README).
In your plone component, add page templates macros that have a corresponding name. These page templates generate the opendocument XML that will fill the areas.
The resulting is stored back and reindexed, re-previewed etc.
