Mammoth Verbose: Automatic style mapping for Mammoth

This program wraps around the Mammoth python library to convert .docx to HTML, preserving all source style names as classes in the HTML and including original .docx style formatting information as attributes on the output HTML elements.

$ python mammoth-verbose.py [--map] [--verbose] -i _filename_

Options

--map: Map source .docx style names to class names in the output HTML. Default is true.

--verbose: Preserve source .docx style formatting as attributes on the output HTML. Default is false.

-i: Input filename. Required.

For example:

$ python mammoth-verbose.py --map --verbose -i /Users/hederis/Documents/alice.docx

The output html file will be created in the same directory as the input docx file.

To-Do

Add some validation to ensure input filename is docx
Add some validation to see if styles.xml file exists; if not, fail gracefully.

mammoth-verbose's Issues

Preserve direct formatting

Currently, the script only preserves formatting added by styles. Add handling to also preserve direct formatting.

Add support for char styles in verbose mode

Verbose mode currently only preserves paragraph formatting information. Add support to preserve character style info as well.

Delete zip upon completion

The temp zip file isn't getting deleted when the script finishes.

Remove style name customization after inserting style info

Once the style info is added as attributes, the style name modifications should be removed. If the entire style name is just the modification suffix (meaning there was no style to begin with), then the class name should be removed entirely.

When the --verbose option is not invoked, then the style names should not be changed to begin with.
