docx-xslt is a Python library for adding XSL transformation for Microsoft Word .docx files without XML or XSLT coding.
The module uses Word meta text which has been formated with a specific character template called XSL, add XSL
code and applies XSL transformation with the XML context.
The meta text has the following syntax:
<meta text> ::= <command list>
<command list> ::= <command expr> | <command list>
<command expr> ::= 'xsl' ':' <context expr> <xsl command expr> <xsl option expr>
<context expr> ::= ':' <context type> |
<context type> ::= 'body' | 'p0' | 'p' | 'r' | 't' | 'tbl' | 'tr' | 'tc'
<xsl command expr> ::= <meta command> | <xsl command>
<meta command> ::= 'meta' <meta sub command>
<meta sub command> ::= 'up' | 'prev' | 'next' | 'cloneprev' | 'clonenext' | 'delete'
<xsl command> ::= 'for-each' | 'choose' | 'when' | 'otherwise' | 'if' | 'sort' | 'value-of' | 'text'
<xsl option expr> ::= <text> | <xsl option name> '=' <xsl option value>
<text> ::= ...
<xsl option name> ::= 'select' | 'test'
<xsl option value> ::= xpath expr
To insert a list of a product names, just add xsl:for-each select=.//products/* xsl:t:value-of select=name and format the text with the XSL template.
from lxml import etree
from docxxslt import DocxXsltTemplate
context = etree.parse("products.xml")
template = DocxXsltTemplate(filename)
template.save(context=context)pip install docx-xslt
