# Ootempl
Office Open XML document templating library for Elixir. Generate customized Word documents by replacing placeholders in templates with dynamic data.
## Features
- **Simple Placeholder Replacement** - Use `{{variable}}` syntax in Word templates
- **Nested Data Access** - Access nested data with `{{customer.name}}` notation
- **Conditional Sections** - Show/hide content with `{{if condition}}...{{endif}}`
- **Dynamic Tables** - Auto-generate table rows from list data
- **Image Replacement** - Replace placeholder images with dynamic content
- **Case-Insensitive Matching** - `{{Name}}`, `{{name}}`, and `{{NAME}}` all match the same data key
- **Formatting Preservation** - Maintains Word formatting (bold, italic, fonts, colors, table borders)
- **Document Properties** - Replace placeholders in title, author, company metadata
- **Headers & Footers** - Process placeholders in headers, footers, footnotes, and endnotes
- **Comprehensive Validation** - Reports all missing placeholders and errors for easy debugging
## Quick Start
Create a Word template with placeholders:
```
Dear {{customer.name}},
Your order total is {{total}}.
```
Generate a document in Elixir:
```elixir
data = %{
"customer" => %{"name" => "John Doe"},
"total" => "$99.99"
}
Ootempl.render("template.docx", data, "output.docx")
#=> :ok
```
