tableToDocument
Python library for easily writing python data to human readeble documents.Current supported
python data types are str, int,list,dictionary,set,pandas series and pandas Dataframe.
Current supported file formats for writing are .doc,.docx,.odt and .tex.
Installation
Pypi
You can easily install and use the library with PyPi
pip install tableToDocument
Git
Clone this repo to your local filesystem
git clone https://github.com/pgiank28/tableToDocument.git
To run from source you must change all the import tableToDocument.x to import x from all the files.
After that,see the tests files at /tests directory for how to make your own files that can write data to documents
Usage
If you've downloaded the library by PyPi, then a python version >= 3.5 and the pandas framework running at your machine are the minimum requirements.You can run in your python console
import tableToDocuments.toDoc as td
to use the library.The toDoc module is the only you will propably use.You can then write to a word document by calling the toWord method and to a latex document by calling the toTex method
td.toWord(path_to_file,flag,data)
td.toTex(path_to_file,flag,data)
where path_to_file is the location of the file you wish to write the data to, and data is the data you are about to write.
The flag property takes the following values
"a" for appending to the end of the file.For tex files, appends to the bottom of the last \{section}.
"b" for writing at the beginning of the file.For tex files,writes at the top of the first \{section}.
#some_integer_num for writing at the specific line num of the document.For tex files,writes at the bottom of the
section num.
If you've downloaded the source code from the git version , simply go to the location you have saved your own test files
(see above) and execute python myfile.py
Example
td.toWord('/some/path/file.odt',14,{'a':[12,14,16'],'b':3,'f':[11,19,20,78,90]}) writes at the line 14 of the document the following
table
| a | [12,14,16] |
|---|---|
| b | 3 |
| f | [11,19,20,78,90] |
td.toWord('/some/path/file.odt','a',pandas.Dataframe({'a':[12,14,16'],'b':[3,88,90],'f':[11,19,20]}) writes at the end of the document
the following table
| a | b | f | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 12 | 3 | 11 |
| 1 | 14 | 88 | 19 |
| 2 | 16 | 90 | 20 |
In latex documents,the arrays are written like above,but without borders, after you convert the document to pdf.
