let us work together
Hi, My name is Laura Matthews and I would really love to tell you how blogs.kde.org can rank even better in Google. I'm a SEO expert working at SEO Persona and while doing a research for some of my colleagues I found your email address and decided to contact you immediately. If you are interested I will be happy to send the additional information and all the details needed to make it happen. Thanks a lot, Laura SEOpersona.net ___ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
Extracting plain text and meta data
Hey everyone I'm currently working on improving KDE File Indexing infrastructure. One of the areas where we are lacking is proper support for Open Document Formats and Microsoft Document Formats. It occurred to me that maybe I could use the calligra libraries to do so. I even looked at the code base ( a little bit ) and extracting the basic metadata is really simple (KoDocumentInfo). I also looked at the Calligra Converter code, which seems to be using a print job to convert the formats. It can convert the file to a pdf, which I can then easily parse, but that seems like a bit too much effort. Not to mention that it's probably very slow. So my question is - Is it possible to use Calligra to quickly extract the plain text from the file? Also, what kind of dependencies an I looking at? Just calligra-libs or something else? -- Vishesh Handa PS: Please keep me cced. I'm not on the mailing list. ___ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel

Just calligra-libs or > something else? The short answer would be to look at the epub export filter. It uses a small set of functions to traverse the xml tree of an odt file. Right now it uses this information to create an xhtml output file. It should be very easy to instead create a pure text file. ___ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
