simple-odf is a library for creating Open Document Format text files using Typescript/JavaScript and Node.js.
Before you begin, make sure your development environment includes Node.js and an npm package manager.
Install simple-odf using npm
:
npm install --save simple-odf
Create your first document.
const simpleOdf = require('simple-odf');
const document = new simpleOdf.TextDocument();
const body = document.getBody();
const image = body.addParagraph().addImage('/home/homer/myself.png');
image.setAnchorType(simpleOdf.AnchorType.AsChar);
image.setSize(29.4, 36.5);
body.addHeading('Welcome to simple-odf');
const p1 = body.addParagraph('The quick, brown fox jumps over a lazy dog.');
p1.addText('\nThe five boxing wizards jump quickly.\n\n');
p1.addHyperlink('Visit me', 'http://example.org/');
const style1 = new simpleOdf.ParagraphStyle();
// text formatting
style1.setColor(simpleOdf.Color.fromRgb(255, 0, 0));
style1.setFontSize(20);
style1.setTextTransformation(simpleOdf.TextTransformation.Uppercase);
style1.setTypeface(simpleOdf.Typeface.Bold);
// paragraph formatting
style1.setHorizontalAlignment(simpleOdf.HorizontalAlignment.Center);
style1.setPageBreak(simpleOdf.PageBreak.Before);
style1.setKeepTogether();
p1.setStyle(style1);
// font usage
document
.getFontFaceDeclarations()
.create('Open Sans', 'Open Sans', simpleOdf.FontPitch.Variable);
const style2 = new simpleOdf.ParagraphStyle();
style2.setFontName('Open Sans');
const p2 = body.addParagraph("It always seems impossible until it's done.");
p2.setStyle(style2);
body.addHeading('Credits', 2);
body.addParagraph('This was quite easy. Do you want to know why?');
const list = body.addList();
list.addItem().addParagraph('one-liner setup');
list
.addItem()
.addParagraph('just write like you would do in a full-blown editor');
document.saveFlat('/home/homer/My_first_document.fodf');
