Contents

[edit] Introduction

I have written a python script that will parse the specified index from the Hierarchy Index and create a PDF book. The script removes breadcrumbs and header/footer information. It can be customized to clean any elements. The script also changes headers so that they match the index, creating an accurate table of contents.

[edit] Features

Creates a true book from an hierarchical index. The book includes a title page, table of contents (that mimics the index) and content.

[edit] Limitations

  • Does not parse pages and children yet
  • Requires Python to be installed on the Server

[edit] Installation

  • No installation currently available
    • The script is still in progress. It works great... for our indexes. It needs to be more universal and have a php interface.

[edit] Configuration

  • Requires Python, htmldoc, and Hierarchy extension

[edit] Usage

[edit] Sample

I developed this extension for the Fishbowl Inventory corporate wiki and have received permission to post it. An example of a pdf created from this extension can be found at fishbowlinventory.com
