python-docx-template has been created because python-docx is powerful for
|
|
creating documents but not for modifying them.
|
|
|
|
The idea is to begin to create an example of the document you want to generate
|
|
with microsoft word, it can be as complex as you want: pictures, index tables,
|
|
footer, header, variables, anything you can do with word. Then, as you are
|
|
still editing the document with microsoft word, you insert jinja2-like tags
|
|
directly in the document. You save the document as a .docx file (xml format).
|
|
it will be your .docx template file.
|
|
|
|
Now you can use python-docx-template to generate as many word documents you
|
|
want from this .docx template and context variables you will associate.
