Easily open Word documents with just a few lines of JavaScript code. Our Node library will provide you with everything you need to access Word document content programmatically.
The task of reading Word documents is the task of reading hierarchical data structures within the DOM model. This implies knowing the format of each individual Word data element, including all of its possible child elements and attributes.
Our JavaScript library is a cloud-based solution that will allow you to open Word files for reading and writing easily. This distributed approach gives you flexibility in software development using JavaScript language, as all resource-intensive Word document processing will take place on Aspose servers. All you need is to get private keys to access Cloud API in JavaScript code.
You can iterate over all elements of a Word document or you can search for specific elements in a DOM tree. We provide a wide range of JavaScript functions both for working with the structure of the Word file and with the data contained in the document nodes.
The following code example will help you quickly figure out how to load a Word file using JavaScript and perform some actions on it.
import * as fs from "fs";
const wordsApi = new WordsApi("####-####-####-####-####", "##################");
const fileName = "Input.docx";
const requestFileContent = fs.createReadStream(fs.readFileSync(
fileName, 'utf8'));
const uploadDocumentRequest = new model.UploadFileRequest({
fileContent: requestFileContent,
path: fileName
});
wordsApi.uploadFile(uploadDocumentRequest)
.then((uploadDocumentRequestResult) => {
console.log("Result of UploadDocumentRequest: ", uploadDocumentRequestResult);
const requestParagraph = new model.ParagraphInsert({
text: "Reading and writing to the file in the cloud occurs automatically."
})
const insertParagraphRequest = new model.InsertParagraphRequest({
name: fileName,
paragraph: requestParagraph
});
wordsApi.insertParagraph(insertParagraphRequest)
.then((insertParagraphRequestResult) => {
console.log("Result of InsertParagraphRequest: ", insertParagraphRequestResult);
const downloadDocumentRequest = new model.DownloadFileRequest({
path: fileName
});
wordsApi.downloadFile(downloadDocumentRequest)
.then((downloadDocumentRequestResult) => {
console.log("Result of DownloadDocumentRequest: ", downloadDocumentRequestResult);
});
});
