Convertit is a format conversion webservice.

Retrieve your document in an other format ! The input file is converted and served back ! Using a dead simple GET request, documents are pulled. Using POST request, it takes the attachment.

Supported conversions:

• odt -> pdf
• odt -> doc
• ods -> xls
• csv -> ods
• csv -> xls
• svg -> pdf
• svg -> png

Previously converted documents are cleaned along the way (on each request).

Example, convert from odt to pdf :

curl http://convertit/?url=http://server/document.odt&to=application/pdf
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Content-Disposition: attachement; filename=document.pdf
...

GET parameters:

url: absolute url of the document to be converted;

Upload data in POST parameter named file:

curl -F "[email protected]" http://convertit/?to=image/png
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Content-Disposition: attachement; filename=tiger.png

• to: output mimetype (optionnal, default to application/pdf if not provided);
• from: input mimetype (optionnal, guessed from input url or file if not provided).

• for OpenDocument support: unoconv
• for SVG support: inkscape

Conversion binaries should be in system PATH (which is used internally.)
