Reaching out

We'd love to hear from you if you like python-docx, want a new feature, find a bug, need help using it, or just have a word of encouragement.

The mailing list for python-docx is (google groups ... )

The issue tracker is on github at python-openxml/python-docx.

Feature requests are best broached initially on the mailing list, they can be added to the issue tracker once we've clarified the best approach, particularly the appropriate API signature.

Installation

python-docx may be installed with pip if you have it available:

pip install python-docx

It can also be installed using easy_install:

easy_install python-docx

If neither pip nor easy_install is available, it can be installed manually by downloading the distribution from PyPI, unpacking the tarball, and running setup.py:

tar xvzf python-docx-0.0.1d1.tar.gz
cd python-docx-0.0.1d1
python setup.py install

python-docx depends on the lxml package. Both pip and easy_install will take care of satisfying that dependency for you, but if you use this last method you will need to install lxml yourself.
