0.5.0
Gendoc extracts data from EMF or GMF models and generates DOCX and ODT documents that fully respect the appearance of initial document template.
-
Styles defined in the template are kept after generation, both on static parts from template and from dynamic parts (generated from EMF model data)
-
Through dedicated tags in template, Gendoc handles:
- Pictures
- Tables
- Hyperlink
-
Gendoc template scripts are written using Acceleo syntax.
- Gendoc extends the generation possibilities in adding the possibility to create their own Acceleo services, used in templates and may call Java library.
Gendoc generator provides extensibility through extension point mechanism for the following points :
Output document format : DOCX and ODT
Template script language : Acceleo only for now
Gendoc template tags : each tag is referenced through an extension and is associated to a dedicated TagHandler
Gendoc services : each document service (logger, document parser, tag parser, tag handler, …) is referenced through an extension and services implementations are also referenced through extensions
Note : this mechanism has been developed on Eclipse 3.X and is not compatible with Eclipse 4.X service injection mechanism.
Nothing to report
The user documentation, how-to and tutorial for gendoc is provided and maintained in wiki https://wiki.eclipse.org/Gendoc.
Gendoc extracts data from EMF or GMF models and generates DOCX and ODT documents in order to :
Specificy or design document from models
Get test plan from a model containing Test scenarii
Get interface configuration document
Describe data structure from specific EMF models
Gendoc template scripts are written using Acceleo syntax.
N/A
