How to output data from django to word template?

Question

Django

I have a website written in django. It is necessary to output some data to the doc document (it has some template, values ​​from the database itself are substituted), so that later the text can be corrected and printed / saved. How can it be implemented? What to read/watch?

Answer 1

So google!
The first thing that Google searches for python docx template is the docxtpl library .
Under the hood, the python-docx library known in these circles is used for fiddling with documents + also popular jinja2 for, in fact, templating.
And yes - about .doc , the good old binary proprietary format, most likely, will have to be forgotten. .docx only .
If there is no possibility or desire to translate your template syntax into jinja2, then take python-docx directly and write the logic for replacing tokens in templates with the necessary values ​​from the database yourself.
