ODT Template erstellen
Auf dieser Seite wird beschrieben, wie Sie eine ODT-Dokumentenvorlage erstellen, um eigene Dokumente mithilfe der ODT Generierung zu erstellen.
To know how to build a PDF template, see page Create a PDF document template. Building a PDF template require PHP development knowledge, but not building an ODT template.
Prerequisite
- Dolibarr: 3.1+
- OpenOffice: 3.2+, LibreOffice, ...
Create your document
- Create from scratch an empty OpenOffice document and take a provided example. You may find them installed into a subdirectory of directory documents/doctemplates
- Edit your document using all your Office suite features.
Include in your document the tags you want to see. Tags will be replaced during generation of document automatically by Dolibarr. List of all available tags are provided in next chapter.
Warning, tags must be rounded with {} or [] for arrays (see later) and must be typed with no stop using Office suite (with no backspace and no copy-paste). If not doing that, Office suite adds some invisible information makes detection/replacement impossible.

For ODT with supplier prices, you may need also to surround the substitutions variables with
[!-- BEGIN supplierprices--][!-- END supplierprices--]
Lines of object
This is how to use arrays for lines of objects (invoices, commercial proposal, orders, etc...). You must create your array in the document and use a begin and end tag to define a line of the array. The line will then be repeated as much as required during generation.
[!-- BEGIN row.lines --] ... [!-- END row.lines --]
If you want to display it not in tables row but in block lines :
[!-- BEGIN lines --] ... [!-- END lines --]
Then, you can use following tags into your line:
{line_pos}
{line_desc}
{line_product_ref}
{line_product_ref_fourn}
{line_product_label}
{line_product_type}
{line_product_barcode}
{line_vatrate}
{line_localtax1_rate}
{line_localtax2_rate}
{line_up}
{line_up_locale}
{line_qty}
{line_discount_percent}
{line_price_ht}
{line_price_ht_locale}
{line_price_vat}
{line_price_vat_locale}
{line_price_ttc}
{line_price_ttc_locale}
{line_date_start}
{line_date_start_locale}
{line_date_start_rfc}
{line_date_end}
{line_date_end_locale}
{line_date_end_rfc}
{line_unit} : Needs PRODUCT_USE_UNITS to 1
{line_unit_short} : Needs PRODUCT_USE_UNITS to 1
{line_fulldesc} : contains both line_desc and line_product_ref and line_product_label
Multicurrency :
{line_multicurrency_code}
{line_multicurrency_subprice}
{line_multicurrency_total_ht}
{line_multicurrency_total_tva}
{line_multicurrency_total_ttc}
{line_multicurrency_subprice_locale}
{line_multicurrency_total_ht_locale}
{line_multicurrency_total_tva_locale}
{line_multicurrency_total_ttc_locale}
Specific to Shipments :
{line_qty_shipped}
{line_qty_asked}
{line_weight}
{line_length}
{line_surface}
{line_volume}
Extra fields:
{line_options_xxx} : Value of extra field (where xxx is code of extra field)
{line_product_options_xxx} : If the line is a product, Value of the Product extra filed (where xxx is code of Product extra field)
This an example of what you may have in your office suite:
For project documents
For document about projects and task, you also have
{tasktime_rowid}
{tasktime_task_date}
{tasktime_task_duration}
{tasktime_task_duration_sec}
{tasktime_note}
{tasktime_fk_user}
{tasktime_user_name}
{tasktime_user_first}
{tasktime_fullcivname}
For projects ODT, you may need also to surround the substitutions variables with
[!-- BEGIN projectcontacts --][!-- END projectcontacts --] [!-- BEGIN projectfiles --][!-- END projectfiles --] [!-- BEGIN projectrefs --][!-- END projectrefs --] [!-- BEGIN tasks --][!-- END tasks --]
For Tasks ODT, you may need also to surround the substitutions variables with
[!-- BEGIN tasksressources--][!-- END tasksressources--] [!-- BEGIN taskstimes--][!-- END taskstimes--] [!-- BEGIN tasksfiles--][!-- END tasksfiles--] [!-- BEGIN projectfiles--][!-- END projectfiles--] [!-- BEGIN projectcontacts--][!-- END projectcontacts--]
Conditional substitution
Starting from Dolibarr v3.3, you can use conditional substitutions, which in layman terms means that you can decide to print something if a variable is true, or print something else if it's false (or nothing at all) - including text but also any more complex structures like tables and images.
Example:
[!-- IF {my_var} --]
Print this text if {my_var} is true (can be any value but null/0/empty string)
[!-- ELSE {my_var} --]
Or print this if it's false (null/0/empty string)
[!-- ENDIF {my_var} --]
Note: of course, the ELSE tag and block is optional, you can just use IF/ENDIF if you prefer.
Warning: the format of this special tag is very precise and picky, be careful to put one space between:
- [!--
- IF/ELSE/ENDIF
- {my var}
- --]
- Warning: String must be typed with no stop using Office suite (with no backward and no copy-paste). If not doing that, Office suite add some invisible information making detection/replacement of text not possible.
Other personalized tags
If you want to add a field that is not predefined, this is the solution:
- Create a file into the location:
htdocs/mymodule/core/substitutions/functions_mymodule.lib.php
- Inside this file, just write one function like this:
/** Function called to complete substitution array (before generating on ODT, or a personalized email)
* functions xxx_completesubstitutionarray are called by make_substitutions() if file
* is inside directory htdocs/core/substitutions
*
* @param array $substitutionarray Array with substitution key=>val
* @param Translate $langs Output langs
* @param Object $object Object to use to get values
* @return void The entry parameter $substitutionarray is modified
*/
function mymodule_completesubstitutionarray(&$substitutionarray,$langs,$object)
{
global $conf,$db;
$myvalue='Put here calculated value to insert';
$substitutionarray['myowntag']=$myvalue;
}
Function will be called before generating document to complete the array used for substitution and to replace tag myowntag with value $myvalue. You can add as many tags as you need and put all personalized code you want to define values (search into database, into files, calculation, from received parameters or from global variables)...
Warning: First parameter in function parameter declaration must start with & as value is modified by your code and must be returned modified.
To have your substitution function be called, if you have to :
- Check your substitution file is inside subdirectory module called htdocs/mymodule/core/substitutions.
- Build your own module (See page Module development) with its descriptor file.
- Check your module descriptor file contains an entry to declare this module has a substitutions file
$this->module_parts = array('substitutions' => 1)
- Enable your module (module must be enabled and disabled each time you change the descriptor).
Note2: this only allows to define global, static ODT variables (ie: to make dynamic variables that changes for every line of product, please see the next chapter).
Other personalized tags for lines
This function is available since Dolibarr v3.3 (future development version).
Similarly to the previous chapter, you have to define a function, and it works about the same, but with a few twists:
- Create or edit the same file as before (see the previous chapter).
- Here are the twists: in the file, write another function with almost the same name but with '_lines' appended, and also add a new $lines variable:
/** Function called to complete substitution array for lines (before generating on ODT, or a personalized email)
* functions xxx_completesubstitutionarray_lines are called by make_substitutions() if file
* is inside directory htdocs/core/substitutions
*
* @param array $substitutionarray Array with substitution key=>val
* @param Translate $langs Output langs
* @param Object $object Object to use to get values
* @param Object $line Current line being processed, use this object to get values
* @return void The entry parameter $substitutionarray is modified
*/
function mymodule_completesubstitutionarray_lines(&$substitutionarray,$langs,$object,$line) {
{
global $conf,$db;
$myvalue='Put here calculated value to insert';
$substitutionarray['myowntag']=$myvalue;
}
Contrary to the previous function which was called only once, this function will be called everytime a line of product will be processed, giving you each time a new $line object that you can process. This allows you to do different substitutions for each product.
Store your document
To have your document to appear in list of available documents, put it into correct subdirectory found into directory documents/doctemplates
