OpenXml

A ruby library for generating word documents that can handle basic html and images too.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'open_xml'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install open_xml

Provide a path to a docx with the text [SUPERPOWER] placed anywhere.

require 'open_xml'

doc = OpenXml::TemplateDocument.new(path: "[path to template]")
doc.process({"[SUPERPOWER]" => {text: "Bug Fixing!!!!"}})

IO.write "./powers.docx", doc.to_zip_buffer.string

HTML content

doc = OpenXml::TemplateDocument.new(path: "[path to template]")
doc.process({"[SUPERPOWER]" => {text: "<h1>Bug Fixing!!!!</h1>", html: true}})

HTML with images

doc = OpenXml::TemplateDocument.new(path: "[path to template]")
doc.process({"[SUPERPOWER]" => {text: "<img src='/powers.png' />", html: true, images: {'/powers.png' => "[Base64 encoded image]"}}})
