pandocwrapper-api's Issues

save files temporary and delete after sending back

• find a way to do that
• save temporary in some folder
• delete whole folder after send back to frontend

put output files into extra folder to easier download them

delete examples

differentiate route for docx and pdf

• add one route for input a latex file
  • params: file, design, bib, image(s)
• add one route for input a docx file
  • params: file, design

error handling

convert latex route

• file exists

• design/template exists

• bib exists

convert docx route

• file exists

• design/reference exists

send converted file to frontend

• how to do that?
  • flask.send_from_directory
  • swagger response with content application/pdf

openoffice integration

• api

• new directory

update swagger yml (describe response jsons)

the response json data has to be described in more detail

in /upload, save them either in `cis/latex/uploads` or `cis/docx/uploads` depending on file ending
