This project has been archived because I've developed a new one called Unogenerator, that tries to solve problems with OpenPyXl and odfpy libraries limitations, working directly with Libreoffice through UNO api with python, and getting better and more stable results.

You can still use Officegenerator, it's working fine and it's a good code repository using OpenPyXl and OdfPy.

Give it a try ;)

OfficeGenerator doxygen documentation:

• http://turulomio.users.sourceforge.net/doxygen/officegenerator/

Pypi project page

• https://pypi.org/project/officegenerator/

• https://www.python.org/, as the main programming language.
• https://pypi.org/project/odfpy/, to generate LibreOffice documents.
• https://pypi.org/project/openpyxl/, to generate MS Office XLSX/XLSM documents.
• http://xmlsoft.org/, to execute xmllint in officegenerator_odf2xml

You can view officegenerator/demo.py to see an example of code: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Turulomio/officegenerator/master/officegenerator/demo.py
