void *
lowdown_odt_new(const struct lowdown_opts *opts);

Allocates an OpenDocument renderer using opts->flags, or zero if opts is NULL. This field is documented in lowdown(3). The returned pointer may be used with multiple invocations of lowdown_odt_rndr(3) and must be freed with lowdown_odt_free(3).

The bits recognised in opts->oflags are LOWDOWN_ODT_SKIP_HTML and LOWDOWN_STANDALONE.

The opts->odt.sty field, if not NULL, overrides the default <office:font-face-decls>, <office:scripts>, and <office:styles> elements of the document styles.

Returns a pointer to the renderer or NULL on memory failure. The returned pointer must be freed with lowdown_odt_free(3).

The following parses b of length bsz and outputs in “flat” OpenDocument format.

struct lowdown_buf *out;
struct lowdown_doc *doc;
struct lowdown_node *n;
void *rndr;

if ((doc = lowdown_doc_new(NULL)) == NULL)
	err(1, NULL);
if ((n = lowdown_doc_parse(doc, NULL, b, bsz, NULL)) == NULL)
	err(1, NULL);
if ((out = lowdown_buf_new(256)) == NULL)
	err(1, NULL);
if ((rndr = lowdown_odt_new(NULL)) == NULL)
	err(1, NULL);
if (!lowdown_odt_rndr(out, rndr, n))
	err(1, NULL);

fwrite(out->data, 1, out->size, stdout);

lowdown_odt_free(rndr);
lowdown_buf_free(out);
lowdown_node_free(n);
lowdown_doc_free(doc);
