Find and replace
by Helder Gramacho 19 Nov '15

19 Nov '15

Hi all, has anyone tried to find and replace a string in webodf? After opening the document I need to find a specific string and replace it with a large amount of text. User fields (defined in the document) is not an option as it ignores carriage returns. A possibility would be to position the cursor (and select) the string I am searching for and the paste my data (maybe with PasteController) but I can't find anything that positions the cursor on the text I'm looking for. Can anybody help? Thanks so much, Helder Gramacho Portugal

Hi Guys, I need some help to build webODF.js file locally on Windows. I followed all the setup and steps mentioned at link https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/blob/master/README-Building.md. But while running command "cmake -G "Visual Studio 10" ..\webodf" I am gettting an error. Error message : CMake Error at webodf/CMakeLists.txt:12 (include): include could not find load file: D:/hack/build/jsfileslist.txt -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! See also "D:/hack/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". Can you please help me with this. If I put an empty jsfileslist.txt build worked but webODF file generated in incomplete. I googled for error but did not find anything relative. Hoping for response soon!! Regards, Vishal

Viewing documents by pages (technical preview)
by Guenadi Maslov 13 Aug '15

13 Aug '15

Hi, I've seen in the feature section that it was possible to display documents in a page-like manner. It seems to be working quite ok with only a few glitches. However I couldn't find a way to enable it the WebODF API. Could you enlighten me? Also I wanted to ask if there were any plans to manage header and footer content? Thanks for all of the great work -- Guenadi

WebODF - Save Documents to Server Side
by Jose Alonso Hernandez 27 Jul '15

27 Jul '15

Hi guys, I'm new to the community, congratulations for all the great work that you are doing, webodf is an awesome tool. Here I go with my first question to the community. I'm working with the webodf javascript library, and I'm using the LocalEditor that is provided as an example, currently I embedded the LocalEditor into a Rails Application that I'm developing and I would like to know ih there's currently a way to save the generated document to the server side ? Right now the FileSaver.js library exports the document to the client side, but I know that for example ownCloud Documents use the WebODF library and that they can handle the saving to the server side, is there any example on how to accomplish this ?

Placed Images
by Jeff Nova 21 Apr '15

21 Apr '15

Hi! Thank you so much to the developers for creating this magnificent tool. I'm new to the community and excited to meet everyone here. I'm prompted to write regarding an issue we experience with placed images. It seems that when we place an image, and then convert the ODT to DOCX, that the image is made very tiny. It doesn't matter whether the image has a resolution set or not. We have tested only with JPEGs. Is this a unoconv or LibreOffice issue, or does it ring a bell for users of WebODF? Thanks for your consideration! J

WebODF 0.5.7 released, bringing review-only modus to Wodo.TextEditor
by Friedrich W. H. Kossebau 17 Apr '15

17 Apr '15

Dear WebODF-interested and enthusiasts, we WebODF developers are happy to declare that: WebODF version 0.5.7 is tagged and out! The weeks since the last release were spent on improving support for annotations with ODT files. As a result this release now adds official support in Wodo.TextEditor for an alternative review-only modus (see the feature demo here: http://webodf.org/about/features/annotation-demo.html), where users can only add, edit and remove own annotations, but not modify the actual document content. Also have a few annotation related bugs been fixed. So go to the Download page (http://webodf.org/download/) and update your deployment of webodf.js or the Wodo.TextEditor. Or try their "bower" packages, listed with "webodf.js" and "wodo.texteditor" at the central bower registry. We are interested to get feedback on them, please tell if they work for you or what could be improved. If you use another package/dependency manager, please tell us how we can support it. There are currently special repos set up for such managers which contain the products build from the WebODF sources, so any needed metadata file could be placed there: https://github.com/kogmbh/webodf.js_release https://github.com/kogmbh/Wodo.TextEditor_release Changes between 0.5.6 and 0.5.7 WebODF Improvements * In OpAddAnnotation support annotated ranges with 0 length (https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/pull/879) Fixes * Fix breaking all empty annotations on merging the paragraph they are contained in with the one before (https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/pull/877) * Fix error message popup on deleting an annotation starting at the end of a paragraph or styled range (https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/pull/880) * Fix wrong style information for text in annotations (https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/pull/881) Breaking changes * OpAddAnnotation spec changed: length=0 no longer means unranged annotation, but a range of 0 length. For unranged annotations now use length=undefined. Wodo.TextEditor (See also section about WebODF) Improvements * Add a "review" modus where users can add, edit and remove own annotations, but not modify the actual document content (https://github.com/kogmbh/WebODF/pull/883) Cheers Friedrich -- Friedrich W.

Server-side save and load example
by Wally 14 Apr '15

14 Apr '15

I have been working with WebODF and the Wodo editor for a few days and thought I would give back some to the community for making such a great set of tools and libraries. The application I've been developing involves saving and loading ODF files on a server and editing them in the browser and seeing as there are no good examples of how to do this, I thought maybe this could work as an example for others. Note: This application is based off of the wodo editor project's localeditor.html and related files. I use jQuery to simplify stuff, but it probably isn't necessary. First we need to be able to load files from the server. This is easy enough as that is already built into the Wodo editor via editor.openDocumentFromURL(). I get a list of files on the server and add onClick events to the links. function refreshPanelContents() { // Request the HTML containing the list of files available. $.ajax({ url: 'filelist.php', dataType: 'html', success: function(data) { // Update the panel with the new list of files. $('.panel').html(data); // Add onClick events to each file link. $('.fileOpen').click( function(){ var filename = $(this).text(); // We need this random number to stop file caching. var rand = Math.random().toString(36).substr(2); // All of the files are in the 'storage' folder for now... // this should probably call a server-side script to get the file based on some encrypted data. var filepath = 'storage/' + filename + '?rand=' + rand; // loadedFilename is used during saving to know what file to save to. loadedFilename = filename; // Clear the cache so we don't load old docs. runtime.clearCache(); // Close the current document. Probably should check if the document is unsaved first and ask the user what to do. editor.closeDocument(function() { // Load the selected document. editor.openDocumentFromUrl(filepath, null); }); }); } }); } We now need to be able to save to the server. Here I am using the save button in the Wodo toolbar to do a server-side save instead of it downloading it on the client. function save() { function saveByteArray(err, data) { if (err) { alert(err); return; } var filename = loadedFilename || "doc.odt"; var mimetype = "application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text"; var blob = new Blob([data.buffer], {type: mimetype}); // Ends up calling new FileSaver(blob, filename); saveAs(blob, filename); } editor.getDocumentAsByteArray(saveByteArray); refreshPanelContents(); } Most of the example code from FileSaver.js is unchanged (it might go unused, not sure). Here is what the FileSaver constructor turned into: var FileSaver = function(blob, filename) { // FormData lets us send a blob along with other metadata for saving. var fd = new FormData(); fd.append('name', filename); fd.append('data', blob); // POST data to our save script. $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: 'save.php', data: fd, processData: false, contentType: false, success: function(data) { // Success! alert('Saved! ' + data); }, error: function(data) { // Failure. alert('We got a big error here.\n' + JSON.stringify(data)); } }); }; The save.php script will be application specific, but just for a completeness, here is my partial implementation (minus error checking and safety stuff): <?php $fileName = $_POST['name']; // PHP now stores Blobs in this $_FILES variable. $fileBlob = $_FILES['data']; // The Blob has some data we need. $tmpPath = $fileBlob['tmp_name']; $fileSize = $fileBlob['size']; // Read the temp file data. $fp = fopen($tmpPath, 'r'); $content = fread($fp, $fileSize); fclose($fp); // Write data. $dir = __DIR__ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'storage'; $filePath = $dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $fileName; file_put_contents($filePath, $content); ?> Hopefully that helps someone out there get started on a server-side application to save and load documents. Enjoy!
