OpenTBS - create OpenOffice and Ms Office documents with PHP (and ZF2)

Introduction

(Taken from http://www.tinybutstrong.com/plugins/opentbs/tbs_plugin_opentbs.html)

OpenTBS is a PHP tool to produce any OpenOffice and Ms Office documents with templates.

OpenTBS can merge any OpenDocument and Open XML files. It autommatically reconize extensions: odt, ods, odg, odf, odm, odp, ott, ots, otg, otp, docx, xlsx, pptx. In fact it can merge any XML or Text file saved in a zip container (which is the case for both OpenDocuments and OpenXML documents).

What is special to OpenTBS:

  • Design your templates directly with OpenOffice or MS Office.
  • No exe file needed to merge documents.
  • No temporary files needed to merge documents.
  • Output directly as an http download, a new file on the disk, or as a string (for file attachment for example).
  • Works with both PHP 4 and PHP 5.

Versions included

TinyButStrong - 3.9.0

OpenTBS - 1.9.4

Requirements

  • ZF2
  • It is better to have the Zlib extension enabled on your PHP installation. If it's not, here is what to do.

Installation

Step 1: Download the bundle using composer

Add the following in your composer.json:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/kipperlenny/opentbsbundle"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "hamichen/opentbs-bundle": "dev-master"
    }
}

Then download / update by running the command:

$ php composer.phar update hamichen/opentbs-bundle

Composer will install the bundle to your project's vendor/Kipperlenny/opentbs-bundle directory.

Step 2: Add the bundle in your application.config.php

'OpentbsBundle',

Now you can use the 'opentbs' service.

Using OpenTBSBundle

First you need to define the variables in your docx template (you can use any other supported document format).

... some text in a word file with a `[client.name]` variable ...

In TBS you always need a variable base client and a variable name name.

Then in your controller you need to get the OpenTBS service, load your template and merge the fields (eg. replace the teplate variables).

...
use OpentbsBundle\Factory\TBSFactory as TBS;
...

    $tbs = new TBS();
    $tbs->LoadTemplate('document.odt');

A note for onshow automatic variables: You could define your variables within the onshow base, (like onshow.name), but I would not recommend this practice for it will only work if you use GLOBAL variables.

For more information ...

read the TBS manual at http://www.tinybutstrong.com/manual.php

and the OpenTBS plugin documentation at http://www.tinybutstrong.com/plugins/opentbs/tbs_plugin_opentbs.html
