like several previous incarnations of the same idea, it bootstraps an office, loads all documents in a directory and prints them to files.
Hehe, you rock - just, FWIW, there's this in the old build repo: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/build/tree/bin/oodocdiff.sh?h=libreoffice-3-4 (seems it wasn't moved over to solenv/bin), which relies on the rather new-fangled batch-conversion / batch-printing options of the office binary: --print-to-file [-printer-name printer_name] [--outdir output_dir] files Batch print files to file. If --outdir is not specified then current working dir is used as output_dir. Eg. --print-to-file *.doc --print-to-file --printer-name nasty_lowres_printer --outdir /home/user *.doc
it is based on a handful of general purpose classes to setup connections to an soffice process in a robust way that could be useful for writing UNO API tests in Python.
Which is lovely - just, for the sake of orthogonality, we (back in the day) opted to only test document printing, and not the (somewhat flaky) remote UNO on top. ;) Cheers, -- Thorsten
