- Templates processing
- ====================
-
- You can create a .docx document template with included search-patterns which can be replaced by any value you wish. Only single-line values can be replaced.
-
- To deal with a template file, use ``new TemplateProcessor`` statement. After TemplateProcessor instance creation the document template is copied into the temporary directory. Then you can use ``TemplateProcessor::setValue`` method to change the value of a search pattern. The search-pattern model is: ``${search-pattern}``.
-
- Example:
-
- .. code-block:: php
-
- $templateProcessor = new TemplateProcessor('Template.docx');
- $templateProcessor->setValue('Name', 'Somebody someone');
- $templateProcessor->setValue('Street', 'Coming-Undone-Street 32');
-
- It is not possible to directly add new OOXML elements to the template file being processed, but it is possible to transform main document part of the template using XSLT (see ``TemplateProcessor::applyXslStyleSheet``).
-
- See ``Sample_07_TemplateCloneRow.php`` for example on how to create
- multirow from a single row in a template by using ``TemplateProcessor::cloneRow``.
-
- See ``Sample_23_TemplateBlock.php`` for example on how to clone a block
- of text using ``TemplateProcessor::cloneBlock`` and delete a block of text using
- ``TemplateProcessor::deleteBlock``.
