Invocar scripts en Python desde o Basic

É posíbel invocar scripts en Python desde as macros en Basic do LibreOffice, co que se obteñen funcionalidades valiosas, como:

Recoméndase unha exposición razoábel ao Basic do LibreOffice e ás funcionalidades da súa Interface de Programación de Aplicacións (API) con antelación á realización de chamadas inter-linguaxes do Basic a Python, JavaScript ou calquera outro motor de scripts.


Recuperar scripts en Python

Os scripts en Python poden ser persoais, compartidos ou incorporados aos documentos. Para executalos, o Basic do LibreOffice precisa coñecer onde están situados os scripts en Python. Localizar os obxectos UNO compatíbeis coa interface com.sun.star.script.provider.XScript permite a execución de scripts en Python:


         Option Explicit
             
         Public Function GetPythonScript(macro As String, _
                 Optional location As String) As com.sun.star.script.provider.Xscript
             ''' Grab Python script object before execution
             ' Arguments:
             '    macro   : as "library/module.py$macro" or "module.py$macro"
             '    location: as "document", "share", "user" or ENUM(eration)
             ' Result:
             '    located com.sun.star.script.provider.XScript UNO service'''
             If IsMissing(location) Then location = "user"
             Dim mspf As Object ' com.sun.star.script.provider.MasterScriptProviderFactory
             Dim sp As Object ' com.sun.star.script.provider.XScriptProvider compatible
             Dim uri As String
             If location="document" Then
                 sp = ThisComponent.getScriptProvider()
             Else
                 mspf = CreateUNOService("com.sun.star.script.provider.MasterScriptProviderFactory")
                 sp = mspf.createScriptProvider("")
             End If
             uri = "vnd.sun.star.script:"& macro &"?language=Python&location="& location
             GetPythonScript = sp.getScript(uri)
         End Function ' GetPythonScript
      

Execución de scripts en Python

The LibreOffice Application Programming Interface (API) Scripting Framework supports inter-language script execution between Python and Basic, or other supported programming languages for that matter. Arguments can be passed back and fourth across calls, providing they represent primitives data types that both languages recognize, and assuming that the Scripting Framework converts them appropriately.

Sintaxe

workstation_name = script.invoke(Array(), Array(), Array())

opSysName = script.invoke(Array(), in_outs, Array()) ' in_out is an Array

file_len = script.invoke(Array(systemFilePath), Array(), Array())

normalizedPath = script.invoke(Array(systemFilePath), Array(), Array())

Below ComputerName, and GetFilelen routines are calling their Python counterparts, using aforementioned GetPythonScript function. Exception handling is not detailed.


         Option Explicit
         Option Compatible ' Properties are supported
             
         Private scr As Object ' com.sun.star.script.provider.XScript
             
         Private Property Get ComputerName As String
             '''Workstation name'''
             scr = GetPythonScript("Platform.py$computer_name", "document")
             ComputerName = scr.invoke(Array(), Array(), Array())
         End Property ' ComputerName
             
         Private Function GetFilelen(systemFilePath As String) As Currency
             '''File size in bytes'''
             scr = GetPythonScript("Os/Path.py$get_size", Script.ISEMBEDDED)
             GetFilelen = scr.invoke(Array(systemFilePath), Array(), Array(),)
         End Function ' GetFilelen
             
         Private Type _SCRIPT_LOCATION
             ISEMBEDDED As String ' document script
             ISPERSONAL As String ' user script
             ISSHARED As String ' LibreOffice macro
         End Type ' _SCRIPT_LOCATION
             
         Public Function Script() As Object ' Text enumeration
             Static enums As _SCRIPT_LOCATION : With enums
             If .ISEMBEDDED = "" Then
                 .ISEMBEDDED = "document" ' document script
                 .ISPERSONAL = "user" ' user scripts
                 .ISSHARED = "share" ' LibreOffice macro
             End If : End With ' enums
             Script = enums
         End Function ' Script
      

Two different Python modules are called. They can either be embedded in the current document, either be stored on the file system. Argument type checking is skipped for clarity:


         # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
         from __future__ import unicode_literals
          
         import platform
          
         def computer_name() -> str:
             return platform.node()
          
         def OSname() -> str:
             return platform.system()
      

         # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
         from __future__ import unicode_literals
          
         import os.path
          
         def get_size(systemFilePath: str) -> str:
             return str(os.path.getsize(systemFilePath))
          
         def normalyze(systemPath: str) -> str:
             return os.path.normpath(systemPath)
      

Personal or Shared Scripts Examples

The calling mechanism for personal or shared Python scripts is identical to that of embedded scripts. Library names are mapped to folders. Computing LibreOffice user profile and shared modules system file paths can be performed as detailed in Getting session information. Below OSName, HelloWorld and NormalizePath routines are calling their Python counterparts, using aforementioned GetPythonScript function. Exception handling is not detailed.


         Option Explicit
         Option Compatible ' Properties are supported
             
         Private scr As Object ' com.sun.star.script.provider.XScript
             
         Private Property Get OSName As String
             '''Platform name as "Linux", "Darwin" or "Windows"'''
             scr = GetPythonScript("Platform.py$OSname", Script.ISPERSONAL)
             OSName = scr.invoke(Array(), Array(), Array()) 
         End Property ' OSName
             
         Private Sub HelloWorld()
             '''LibreOffice Python shared sample'''
             scr = GetPythonScript("HelloWorld.py$HelloWorldPython", Script.ISSHARED)
             scr.invoke(Array(), Array(), Array(),)
         End Sub ' HelloWorld
             
         Public Function NormalizePath(systemFilePath As String) As String
             '''Strip superfluous '\..' in path'''
             scr = GetPythonScript("Os/Path.py$normalyze", "user")
             NormalizePath = scr.invoke(Array(systemFilePath), Array(), Array())
         End Function ' NormalizePath
      

Python standard modules

LibreOffice embedded Python contains many standard libraries to benefit from. They bear a rich feature set, such as but not limited to:
