I am trying to fill with Python a table in Word with DocxTemplate and I have some issues to do it properly. I want to use 2 dictionnaries to fill the data in 1 table, in the figure below.
The 2 dictionnaries are filled in a loop and I write the template document at the end. The input document to create my dictionnaries is an DB extraction written in SQL. My main issue is when I want to fill the table with my data in the 2 different dictionnaries. In the code below I will give as an example the 2 dictionnaries with values in it.
# -*- coding: utf8 -*-
#
#
from docxtpl import DocxTemplate
if __name__ == "__main__":
document = DocxTemplate("template.docx")
DicoOccuTable = {'`num_carnet_adresses`': '`annuaire_telephonique`\n`carnet_adresses`\n`carnet_adresses_complement',
'`num_eleve`': '`CFA_apprentissage_ctrl_coherence`\n`CFA_apprentissage_ctrl_examen`}
DicoChamp = {'`num_carnet_adresses`': 72, '`num_eleve`': 66}
template_values = {}
#
template_values["keys"] = [[{"name":cle, "occu":val} for cle,val in DicoChamp.items()],
[{"table":vals} for cles,vals in DicoOccuTable.items()]]
#
document.render(template_values)
document.save('output/' + nomTable.replace('`','') + '.docx')
As a result the two lines for the table are created but nothing is written within... I would like to add that it's only been 1 week that I work on Python, so I feel that I don't manage properly the different objects here. If you have any suggestion to help me, I would appreciate it !
I put here the loop to create the dictionnaries, it may help you to understand why I coded it wrong :)
for c in ChampList:
with open("db_reference.sql", "r") as f:
listTable = []
line = f.readlines()
for l in line:
if 'CREATE TABLE' in l:
begin = True
linecreateTable = l
x = linecreateTable.split()
nomTable = x[2]
elif c in l and begin == True:
listTable.append(nomTable)
elif ') ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;' in l:
begin = False
nbreOccu=len(listTable)
Tables = "\n".join(listTable)
DicoChamp.update({c:nbreOccu})
DicoOccuTable.update({c:Tables})
# DicoChamp = {c:nbreOccu}
template_values = {}
Thank You very much !
Finally I found a solution for this problem. Here it is. Instead of using 2 dictionnaries I created 1 dictionnary with this strucuture :
The full code for creating the table is detailed below :
And I used a table with the following structure :
I hope you will find your answers here and good luck !
