This is a collection of utility programs written in Python to manipulate OpenDocument 1.2 files.

How to proceed: Each application has its own directory. In there, look at the manual pages. The Python-based tools need the odf library. Just make a symbolic link like this: ln -s ../odf odf ... or type: make

For your own use of the odf library, see api-for-odfpy.odt

First you get the package.

$ git clone https://github.com/eea/odfpy.git

Then you can build and install the library for Python2 and Python3:

$ python setup.py build
$ python3 setup.py build
$ su
# python setup.py install
# python3 setup.py install

The library is incompatible with PyXML.

Install tox via pip when running the tests for the first time:

$ pip install tox

Run the tests for all supported python versions:

$ tox
