ezodf : importing an .odt section

Saturday 08 May 2010 7:50:54 am

Hi,

In the PDf doc of the ezodf extension it is said that we can define a section in the .odt file and then import it in a specific class attribute.

I've defined an «intro» section in my .odt document which contains a simple ligne of text.

My class «article» contains an attribute «intro»

But I don't understand what I need to configure in odf.ini.append.php to import the content of the .odt intro section in the intro attribute of the class.

Thanks for your help

Hi Robin,

Thanks for your reply.

In your first link, all seems clear: on the left, the class attribute, on the right, the odt section name... This is what we can understand reading the comments in the odf.ini file.

So, here is my odf.ini section:

ClassAttributeMappingToHeader=enabled

[frontpage]
DefaultImportTitleAttribute=name
DefaultImportBodyAttribute=corps_article
Attribute[name]=name
Attribute[intro]=intro
Attribute[corps_article]=body
Attribute[image]=image
Attribute[caption]=caption
Attribute[publish_date]=publish_date
Attribute[unpublish_date]=unpublish_date

In fact, what I don't understand is that the first two lines are mandatory because otherwise I obtain a PHP fatal error message and, consequently, all other lines are strictly useless and can be removed without effect.

Here is where I am.

Hi Robin,

Yes. You have absolutely well understood what I've meant.

The only config which works is:

[frontpage]
DefaultImportTitleAttribute=name
DefaultImportBodyAttribute=corps_article

Nothing else is needed and nothing else works. The Attribute[xxx]=xxxx lines are totally useless.

Cordially,

Pascal

Hi Robin,

Sorry for the delay...

Well, here is my environment:

Debian 2.6.32.3 x86_64 GNU/Linux
mysql-server 5.1.46-1
php5 5.2.11.dfsg.1-2
apache2 2.2.15-2
eZ Publish 4.3.0 with ezComponents from scratch
Website Interface (ez webin)
Admin2 interface

My ODT document:

1. An «intro» section which contains:
   Mon intro
2. A «body» section which contains:
   Titre 2
   Pascal

When I import this document, I get a new article where "Mon intro" and "Titre2 - Pascal" are both in the body attribute of my article class object.

Normally, I should obtain an article which contains:

1. "Mon intro" in its default intro attribute
2. "Titre2 - Pascal" in its default body attribute

Does it answer your question ?

The sections in my ODT document are realised with "Insert" -> "Section..." and I give a name to my section.

Cordially,

Pascal

Hi Robin,

Here is 3 screenshots illustrating how I create a section in an .odt document:

http://linuxorable.fr/test/ODT/ODT_section_2.png

http://linuxorable.fr/test/ODT/ODT_section_3.png

In this example I create a section named «intro» because the default class used to create an object via «Import odt document» contains an «intro» attribut. Moreover, the default /extension/ezodf/settings/odf.ini.append.php file contains:

[article]
DefaultImportTitleAttribute=title
DefaultImportBodyAttribute=body
Attribute[title]=title
Attribute[intro]=intro  <======== THIS LINE
Attribute[body]=body
Attribute[image]=image
Attribute[caption]=caption
Attribute[publish_date]=publish_date
Attribute[unpublish_date]=unpublish_date

Hi Robin,

Could you give me some information about the environment you are working with ?

From my part, I'm using OOo 3.2.1~rc1-2.deb

And could you send me an odt file which works for you ( advil4005 AT gmail DOT com)

Thank you in advance,

Pascal

Hi Nicolas ;-)

This has no effect.

Btow, ClasseAttributeMappingToHeader is a parameter of the export section now my problem concerns the import of an odt document.

The best way to determine if my environment is the origine of the trouble would be that I could test an odt file which works for someone else.

Regards,

Pascal

Hi Pascal,

I have OO 3.2 on Windows. I'll send you an odt to your mail which should work, if it doesn't let me know and I'll send another one.

Hi Pascal,

Does the above mean you are closer to a solution, or do you actually have it working now? I do see you marked the topic as solved :)
