@dolanmiu

i will look into this bug

David

@ditiem

Please, @dolanmiu, have a quick look to the header issue i mentioned on Feb 07. I think it is a nonsense and it should be easy to fix. If you dont have time I will look into it once I release the project I am currently working on.

Dolan

@dolanmiu

ok ill have a look into this too

Dolan

@dolanmiu

ok @ditiem seems like its a bug

will work on it for the v5 release asap

leave this one to me, i want to re-design the api of it a little. I am not liking the doc.createFirstPageHeader(); doc.createEvenPageHeader(); doc.createHeader(); methods

seems confusing

Rishabh Madan

@rishtech20

Is there any way to add border to the images?

Dolan

@dolanmiu

not yet im afraid

@ky-cheng

Is there a way to insert url hyperlink to the document?

@ky-cheng

Nevermind, I work out you can use document.createHyperlink(), sorry I didn't see an example in documentation site so couldn't find it earlier. Thanks.

Dolan

@dolanmiu

Yup that is right

Sorry for the late reply

@ky-cheng

All good! Thank you for this great package! Happy weekend :)

@DennisAtDept

Hi all,

Is there any way to add a table style to a table like you can with paragraphs?

.e.g:
new Paragraph().style("My Paragraph style"); works

but
new Table().style("My table style"); is not supported

I know you can add styling per cell which works fine, but sometimes i want to add additional lines to a table in word after the document is generated.
Word is not smart enough alterate between the styling of even and uneven rows.

To be able to just use the ootb styles available in word is more then enough for my purposes

Dolan

@dolanmiu

This might be a feature request, I haven’t explored styles in tables yet, but adding borders is possible

DennisAtDept

@DennisAtDept

Hi Dolan,

Thank you for the quick reply, setting the borders and background colours of the cells is indeed possible, but when the person generating these documents wants to adds additional rows to the table, the background colours of the additional rows matches the row that is generated as last instead of alternating between two colours.

I will see if i can add a feature request :)

Using a existing table style or some option to define alternating table row colours is good enough.

DennisAtDept

@DennisAtDept

I'm sorry, what is the propper way to add a feature request?

Dolan

@dolanmiu

Proper way to request a feature is to create an issue on GitHub! :)

Carl Block

@carlblock

Is there someway to insert paragraphs into an already created section?
Something like this? doc.document.body.sections[0].children.push(new Paragraph("Hello"));

Carl Block

@carlblock

@dolanmiu Sorry for doing a mention, I just realised this gitter seems very inactive since July. Is there another more active place for questions?

Dolan

@dolanmiu

GitHub issues

Should probs use this chat more though

Carl Block

@carlblock

Okay, I was thinking that but I'm just afraid of "littering" of non-issues

Dolan

@dolanmiu

And no, there’s no way (and shouldn’t be) a way to add paragraphs to an existing section

Carl Block

@carlblock

Okay

Dolan

@dolanmiu

Gitter is buggy on iOS, I can’t access Gitter on my computer at work, blocked

Carl Block

@carlblock

Because I'm doing a recursive function to create a tree of some HTML content to recreate it with docxjs

Dolan

@dolanmiu

You can create the section object, then at the final recursion step do a doc.addSection

Carl Block

@carlblock

Basically converting quite simple HTML DOM to a docxjs document. I've already managed to create a JSON representation of the DOM. But I thought I could apply the same method to construct a docxjs

That's true, didn't think about that :)

Dolan

@dolanmiu

Why not separate your concerns so you have a two step process? It will be healthier for the codebase Have the recursion step to create the data you need, then have a “docx” step to create the word document

Carl Block

@carlblock

That does indeed seem better

Dolan

@dolanmiu

Mixing in concerns in general makes headaches for other devs (and your future self) reading the code :wink:

Cool, hope I helped, I’ll use this chat more often in future

Carl Block

@carlblock

Yeah you did! Thanks a lot, if I succeed to make a neat HTML -> docxjs module I could post it in the issues for others to take some inspo later on

Dolan

@dolanmiu

do you mind if I add your company name on the README? @carlblock

Carl Block

@carlblock

@dolanmiu Sure no problem! :)

Dolan

@dolanmiu

What is the company?

Carl Block

@carlblock

herraizsoto&co.

theProf

@theProf

i may not be in the right place, since it doesn't seem there's been any activity here for year

but i had some questions about the docx specification, and a direction for adding custom metadata that isn't stripped on save by word or libreoffice. figured there might be some knowldgable people here, but maybe this chat is just inactive. i'll check back. but otherwise, fan of docxjs. been a useful tool

Hi there! Where can I find browser support list for 'docx' library?

Metheny80

@Metheny80

is there any way to measure the room left in a page in pixels/inches ?

Dolan

@dolanmiu

No way to measure the amount of room left as everything is declared as is, there’s no way to read word documents to gather information

And it should support all major browsers, maybe IE won’t work though

Metheny80

@Metheny80

i mean when i create a document, and before exporting it to a file.

since all the information should be available (font size, spacing etc.)
