PhpLibre

PhpLibre is an integration library for the file conversion functionality of LibreOffice.

Setup

In order to use this library, you'll need LibreOffice installed. You can find it at the Libre Office Website or you can install it through Homebrew with brew install --cask libreoffice

PhpLibre can be installed to your project via Composer by adding the following line to your composer.json file:

"cidilabs/phplibre": "dev-master"

Once LibreOffice and the PhpLibre library are installed, you'll need to let UDOIT know which file conversion library you'll be using.

This can be done:

• In the .env: ###> file formats ### AVAILABLE_FILE_FORMATS="html,pdf" HTML_FILE_FORMAT_CLASS="\\CidiLabs\\PhpLibre\\PhpLibre" PDF_FILE_FORMAT_CLASS="\\CidiLabs\\PhpLibre\\PhpLibre"

Where AVAILABLE_FILE_FORMATS is the list of formats that files can be converted to, and for each of those formats there is a {FORMAT}_FILE_FORMAT_CLASS field that points to PhpLibre.

Basic Usage

• fileName: The name of the file
• fileUrl: The download URL for the file
• fileType: The file type of the original file
• format: The file type that we want to convert to

$libre =  new  PhpLibre();

$fileUrl =  "https://cidilabs.instructure.com/files/295964/download?download_frd=1&verifier=RZwKCP3iVlNQIULZnTAXO0usUROMC9AuplKkDf2g";

$options =  array('fileUrl'  => $fileUrl,  'fileType'  =>  'pdf',  'format'  =>  'html',  'fileName'  =>  'Test1.pdf');

$libre->convertFile($options);
