Way to edit word documents via web page - web-services

I want to implement a way of editing and create new word documents or excel documents via a web browser. I am looking to do something similar to google docs but implement a project management system to the software. All Ideas welcome.

Push OO or xslt doc to google drive from django

I use pod to generate reports from django. A very smart solution, I enjoy it.
But pod solution required an Open Office (or LibreOffice) installation on client desktop (or server side).
To avoid Open Office software I will hope to send report to google drive as a new (or existing) doc from a django app (or python ...).
Someone would to share expertise with this kind of issue? Else, What would be the steps to publish a google doc from django app?
If your Python app can produce a csv file, you can upload it to Google Docs using the Documents List API and convert it into a Spreadsheet:

Many other file formats can be imported, please check the docs for more details.

Does Google index Web Apps with Ember JS?

I would like to know if Google has any problem to index Web Apps that have been developed with Ember JS.
Thank you very much.
You might want to check out https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/
Posting to this question after 5 years because this is the first page that pops up on google when I search for emberjs google indexing. I would like to mention that the ajax-crawling method mentioned in the above answer is deprecated. New google crawlers will render JS based websites as it renders on a browser and uses that information to crawl as explained in this article Google deprecates ajax crawling scheme.

Is there a way to extract data from Nagios as if it was a web service?

My situation: I'm working on a web monitoring dashboard that assembles informations from different applications and sources and generate graphs, info graphics and reports.
The applications I'm trying to integrate are CACTI, Nagios, and other local private monitoring tools. I had no problem to integrate these applications, except for Nagios (I don't have much experience with it).
What I want to know is if there is a way to use Nagios as a Web Service, or something similar, so I can expose some of the informations and use it to generate my own reports on my dashboard application.
Is it possible to do that without any epic effort?
thanks for reading.
Nagios 4.x starting with version 4.4 now includes CGIs for JSON output. Installing the newest version of Nagios might be the easiest way to go.
See the announcement here.
Review the slides from Nagios World Conference 2013 here.
The Check_MK Multisite GUI (Web base GUI using MK Livestatus) offers a web service mode, where you can send queries/commands as URL parameters and get the response as JSON in the body.
The trick is: Create a view in the GUI, which fits your needs. Then extract the URL of that view and add the parameter output_format=json. Now you should have the output in a parsable format.
For example, this URL should give you a JSON list of all services:
check_mk/view.py?view_name=allservices&output_format=json
You can try:
1) MK Livestatus http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html
it's not web service but it can give current data without any complicated action. All you need redirect this data.
2)status-json plugin http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/APIs/JSON/status-2Djson/details which return data in JSON format.
3)NagiosWS plugin but I wasn't able to get to work it yet. I think it can be done for Nagios 2.x
4)GroundWork Foundation plugin. I think I will try use it now.
I was able to get to work 1 and 2 solution now.
Otherwise you can use Icinga which can give you some JSON or XML output. Icinga is fork of Nagios and can be installed with saving all your nagios data and plugins. At least it written on Icinga's site =) They have some other solution like PHP lib.
Sorry, I cannot post only 2 link while I'm newbie on this site.
Best regards.
Worked for me - MK Livestatus http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html it's not web service but it can give current data without any complicated action. All you need redirect this data.

Offline wiki-like authoring tool

Does anyone know if there is a help authoring tool out there that can produce help documentation for a software product that looks like a wiki? We are currently using the Confluence wiki engine, which is absolutely brilliant and we were wondering if there is anything like that but without the need for an Apache server. Something stand-alone that can give our users the help documentation they need. We have used help authoring tools and they all seem so clunky compared to a wiki.
Use Wiki on a Stick.
Its a single .html file written in Javascript/html and saves the changes onto itself.
You don't even need Apache. Awesome tool!
How about Juli? It generates static HTML so you can browse documents by browser only.
It is used for:
Juli documentation itself.
Edgar project documentation (another my OSS project).
My personal wiki/blog. I'll show later since new users can only post two links(stackoverflow limitation)

Sharepoint Web Services Tutorial

I'm trying to upload documents to SharePoint using web services attaching custom metadata to the files. I've searched but have not found a good tutorial covering all these topics. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Here's why I think I need to use web services:
I'm developing on XP and the Sharepoint object model is not remotable. This means any code which has "using Microsoft.Sharepoint" is out :-(
I'm looked into the CopyIntoItems web service but am having trouble implementing it myself. I was hoping for a clear tutorial. I've tried using the sample code from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/copy.copy.copyintoitems.aspx , but I'm not sure what my sourceURL should be. Also, since I can't use "Microsoft.Sharepoint" references, I'm wondering what my Fields will look like? (Is this my metadata?) Also, I'm curious as to why only Website projects allow me to add a web service.
Once the file is "in" Sharepoint using that web service, I'll have to use another one to update custom columns, or metadata. Some of these are freeform text, but other must match entries in lists or lookups. I haven't found any information on this yet.
Thank you for your help!
Here is some code http://geek.hubkey.com/2007/10/upload-file-to-sharepoint-document.html
As for why it is that is the way because Microsoft wrote it that way :). Some people have written custom web services that combine them, http://www.sharepointblogs.com/ssa/archive/2006/11/30/wsuploadservice-web-service-for-uploading-documents-into-sharepoint.aspx
Using the built in web services you have to upload the file and upload CAML which contains the columns. Another option if you are using a MS-Office document is to make sure the author fills in the properties in the document then you can have those fields displayed in sharepoint.
Here is some stuff on the Sharepoint Designer - http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointdesigner/FX100487631033.aspx
Hope that helps a little.
You can link to the Sharepoint 2007 training from here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/training/HA102358581033.aspx
The designer I believe has a WS example in it.
