The default template to be used to output ODF content.

apply_variable_type_in_cells(content_trees, namespaces)

Replace default ‘string’ type by a function call.

static convert_py3o_to_python_ast(expressions)

Convert py3o expressions to parsable Python code.

The py3o expressions can be extracted from a Template object using the get_all_user_python_expression() method. The result can then be parsed by Py3oConvertor in order to obtain the data structure expected by the template.

Parameters:expressions (list) – A list of strings that represent expressions in the template.
Returns:The expressions in the form of Python code that can be parsed by AST.
Return type:str

find all frames that must be converted to images

get_all_user_python_expression()

Public method to get all python expression

get_user_instructions()

Public method to help report engine to find all instructions This method will be removed in a future version. Please use Py3oTemplate.get_all_user_python_expression().

get_user_variables()

a public method to help report engines to introspect a template and find what data it needs and how it will be used returns a list of user variable names without the leading ‘py3o.’ This method will be removed in a future version. Please use Py3oTemplate.get_all_user_python_expression().

handle_draw_frame(frame, py3o_base)

remove a draw:frame content and inject a draw:image with py:attrs=”__py3o_image(image_name)” this __py3o_image method will be injected inside the template dictionary to be called back from inside the template

Online docs: * <http://babel.pocoo.org/en/latest/numbers.html#pattern-syntax> * <http://babel.pocoo.org/en/latest/api/numbers.html

#babel.numbers.format_currency>

Changes we provide here: * Make the 2nd argument (currency) optional. When not displaying the

currency symbol, no need to provide a currency.

Their parameter docstring has been copied below.

Parameters:
  • number – the number to format
  • currency – the currency code, optional unless displaying the currency
  • format – the format string to use
  • locale – locale identifier
  • currency_digits – use the currency’s natural number of decimal digits
  • format_type – the currency format type to use
  • decimal_quantization – Truncate and round high-precision numbers to the format pattern. Defaults to True.
Return type:

String.

py3o.template.main.format_date(date, format='%Y-%m-%d')

Format the date according to format string.

Parameters:date – One of: datetime.date object, datetime.datetime object, ISO

formatted string (‘%Y-%m-%d’ or ‘%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S’).

py3o.template.main.format_datetime(date_obj, format=None, locale=None)

Format the specified date / date-time according to a format string.

Parameters:date – One of: datetime.date object, datetime.datetime object, ISO

formatted string (‘%Y-%m-%d’ or ‘%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S’).

Parameters:format – How the date should be formatted. We use babel to format;

see <http://babel.pocoo.org/en/latest/dates.html#pattern-syntax>. Optional; when left as is, the default format is: * ‘YYYY-MM-dd’ for datetime.date objects. * ‘YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss’ for datetime.datetime objects. :type format: String.

Parameters:locale (String.) – Locale identifier used during babel formatting. Optional.
Return type:String.
py3o.template.main.format_locale(amount, format_, locale_, grouping=True)

format the given amount using the format and a locale example: format_locale(10000.33, “%.02f”, “fr_FR.UTF-8”) will give you: “10 000,33”

py3o.template.main.format_multiline(value)

Allow line breaks in input data with a format function. Escape and replace code originally by tonthon tonthon.

py3o.template.main.get_all_python_expression(content_trees, namespaces)

Return all the python expressions found in the whole document

py3o.template.main.get_image_frames(content_tree, namespaces)

find all draw frames that must be converted to draw:image

py3o.template.main.get_instructions(content_tree, namespaces)

find all text links that have a py3o

py3o.template.main.get_list_transformer(namespaces)
this function returns a transformer to
find all list elements and recompute their xml:id.

Because if we duplicate lists we create invalid XML. Each list must have its own xml:id

This is important if you want to be able to reopen the produced
document wih an XML parser. LibreOffice will fix those ids itself silently, but lxml.etree.parse will bork on such duplicated lists
py3o.template.main.get_var_corresponding_ods_type(var)

Check variable type and return the corresponding ODS value.

py3o.template.main.move_siblings(start, end, new_, keep_start_boundary=False, keep_end_boundary=False)

a helper function that will replace a start/end node pair by a new containing element, effectively moving all in-between siblings This is particularly helpful to replace for /for loops in tables with the content resulting from the iteration

This function call returns None. The parent xml tree is modified in place

@param start: the starting xml node @type start: lxml.etree.Element

@param end: the ending xml node @type end: lxml.etree.Element

@param new_: the new xml element that will replace the start/end pair @type new_: lxlm.etree.Element

@param keep_start_boundary: Flag to let the function know if it copies your start tag to the new_ node or not, Default value is False @type keep_start_boundary: bool

@param keep_end_boundary: Flag to let the function know if it copies your end tag to the new_ node or not, Default value is False @type keep_end_boundary: bool

@returns: None @raises: ValueError

Data extraction

AST Conversion

class py3o.template.helpers.Py3oConvertor

Provide the data extraction functionality.

bind_target(iterable, target, context, iterated=True)

Helper function to the For node. This function fill the context according to the iterable and

target and return a new_context to pass through the for body
The new context should contain the for loop declared variable
as main key so our children can update their content without knowing where they come from.
Example:

python_code = ‘for i in list’ context = {

‘i’: Py3oArray({}), ‘__py3o_module__’: Py3oModule({‘list’: Py3oArray({})}),

}

In the above example, the two Py3oArray are the same instance. So if we later modify the context[‘i’] Py3oArray,

we also modify the context[‘__py3o_module__][‘list’] one.
static set_last_item(py3o_obj, inst)
Helper function that take a Py3oObject and set the first leaf found
with inst.

This should not be called with a leaf directly.

visit(node, local_context=None)

Call the node-class specific visit function, and propagate the context

visit_attribute(node, local_context)

Visit our children and return a Py3oDummy equivalent Example:

i.egg.foo -> Py3oDummy({
‘i’: Py3oName({
‘egg’: Py3oName({‘foo’: Py3oName()})

}

}

visit_call(node, local_context)

Visit a function call.

visit_expr(node, local_context)
An Expr is the way to express the will of printing a variable
in a Py3oTemplate. So here we must update the context to map all attribute access.

We only handle attribute access and simple name (i.foo or i)

visit_for(node, local_context)

Update the context so our chidren have access to the newly declared variable.

visit_module(node, local_context)

The main node, should be alone. Here we initialize the context and loop for all our children

visit_name(node, local_context)

Simply return Py3oDummy equivalent

visit_str(node, local_context)

Do nothing

Data structure

This file contains all the data structures used by Py3oConvertor See the docstring of Py3oConvertor.__call__() for further information

class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oArray

A class representing an iterable value in the data structure. The attribute direct_access will tell if this class should be considered

as a list of dict or a list of values.

Parameters:name – A Py3oObject instance that represent a name/attribute path
Returns:A Py3oObject subclass or None
class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oCall(name, dict)

This class holds information of function call. ‘name’ holds the name of function as a Py3oName The keys are the arguments as:

  • numeric keys are positional arguments ordered ascendently
  • string keys are keywords arguments
class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oContainer(values)

Represent a container defined in the template. This container can be: _ A literal list, tuple, set or dict definition _ A tuple of variables that are the target of an unpack assignment

get_tuple()

Return the container’s values in a tuple

This class holds temporary dict, or unused attribute such as counters from enumerate()

class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oEnumerate(name, dict)

Represent an enumerate call

class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oName

This class holds information of variables. Keys are attributes and values the type of this attribute

(another Py3o class or a simple value)

i.e.: i.egg -> Py3oName({‘i’: Py3oName({‘egg’: Py3oName({})})})

render(data)

This function will render the datastruct according to the user’s data

class py3o.template.data_struct.Py3oObject

Base class to be inherited.

get_key()

Return the first key

get_size()

Return the max depth of the object

get_tuple()

Return the value of the Py3oObject as a tuple. As a default behavior, the object returns None.

rget(other)

Get the value for the path described by the other Py3oObject.

Recursively checks that the values in other can be found in self.

The method returns the values of self and other at the point where the search stopped. If other is a leaf, the search stops sucessfully. The method returns True, the value that corresponds to the path described by other, and the leaf in question. If other cannot be found in self, the search stops unsuccessfully. The method returns False, the value that corresponds to the deepest point reached in self, and the rest of the path.

Example: self = Py3oObject({

‘a’: Py3oObject({}), ‘b’: Py3oObject({

‘c’: Py3oObject({}),

}),

}) other = Py3oObject({

‘b’: Py3oObject({
‘d’: Py3oObject({}),

}),

}) res = (

False, Py3oObject({‘c’: Py3oObject({})}), # is self[‘b’] Py3oObject({‘d’: Py3oObject({})}), # is other[‘b’]

) if other[‘b’] was a leaf, res[0] would be True and res[2] the leaf.

Returns:A triple: - True if the search was successful, False otherwise - The active sub-element of self when the search stopped - The active sub-element of other when the search stopped
rupdate(other)

Update recursively the Py3oObject self with the Py3oObject other. Example: self = Py3oObject({

‘a’: Py3oObject({}), ‘b’: Py3oObject({

‘c’: Py3oObject({}),

}),

}) other = Py3oObject({

‘b’: Py3oObject({
‘d’: Py3oObject({}),

}),

}) res = Py3oObject({

‘a’: Py3oObject({}), ‘b’: Py3oObject({

‘c’: Py3oObject({}), ‘d’: Py3oObject({}),

}),

})
