too complex :)

If i always need to check normalizeEmpty , it should be part of the base function here is an old rejected FR i asked
docx: Add attribute to all docx helper - "enabled"

I will like to do something like this: {{list2table somedata}}

Here are my top 2 use cases :

1. If the data is null docxHtml return error, so for start return null or blank and do not fail the entire document
2. try to create html for a table from json and then embed it in the word template

I will like to create my own function and use some Built-in helpers function.
for example manipulate some html and return docxHtml, Is this possible ??

function myHtml(data) {
    // some logic on data (html)
    return docxHtml (context=data) ; 
}

Hi,

I would be happy to get some help here. You just committed a fix to a bug I created in the jsreport-docx package, but the new package hasn't been released yet.

How can I install the latest commit on my production server, as the jsreport-docx is not a standalone repo?

follow up question for the answer :

as pdfjs is already installed package in JSreport why do we need to use jsreport.npm.require ?

Yes ,
The json body is encrypted, for that i cannot use beforeRender.
first action is to decrypt the req.body and then start ..

When using the API route Im expecting to get the a valid request but the json will be encrypted.
I cannot use beforeRender or decode the json, i need to use an express middleware.
Can you please provide some guide for this ? TY

You can see the example from the documentation,
https://jsreport.net/learn/docx#docximage

to make it works with multiple images just add a loop around the image placeholder.

Another wild option is using Docx as the base template, so Page number + TOC will be cover ,
The content will be html that will be create in a beforeRender script ..

I want to create document structure that will include:

1. Cover Page
2. TOC
3. Page numbers

the actual content of the document is a dynamic Template so using Components/childTemplate looks like the best option.

Another requirement is that the Component/childTemplate body will be provided from a API call .
Using the playground example for Components/childTemplate looks like the actual content is store in the DB.
Here are my questions ?

1. Use Components OR childTemplate ? what will be the best option
2. Use beforeRender script to update the Component/childTemplate ? for the budy
3. How to create the Page numbers
4. How to create the TOC

Thank you for the help
