What is the process for converting a Word DOCX document to an HTML format in Python while also including all images within the file?

edit

You can use the python-docx module to convert a Word DOCX document to HTML format. Here are the steps:

1. Install the python-docx module using pip.

pip install python-docx

1. Import the necessary modules.

import os
from docx2html import convert

1. Load the Word DOCX document using the docx.Document method.

doc = docx.Document('example.docx')

1. Create a temporary directory to store images.

temp_dir = 'temp'
if not os.path.exists(temp_dir):
    os.makedirs(temp_dir)

1. Loop through all the images in the document and save them to the temporary directory.

for image in doc.inline_shapes:
    if image.image.blob is not None:
        with open(os.path.join(temp_dir, image._cached_name), 'wb') as f:
            f.write(image.image.blob)

1. Convert the document to HTML format using the docx2html.convert method.

html = convert(doc, image_dir=temp_dir)

1. Clean up the temporary directory.

for filename in os.listdir(temp_dir):
    os.remove(os.path.join(temp_dir, filename))
os.rmdir(temp_dir)

Your final code should look something like this:

import os
import docx
from docx2html import convert

doc = docx.Document('example.docx')

temp_dir = 'temp'
if not os.path.exists(temp_dir):
    os.makedirs(temp_dir)

for image in doc.inline_shapes:
    if image.image.blob is not None:
        with open(os.path.join(temp_dir, image._cached_name), 'wb') as f:
            f.write(image.image.blob)

html = convert(doc, image_dir=temp_dir)

for filename in os.listdir(temp_dir):
    os.remove(os.path.join(temp_dir, filename))
os.rmdir(temp_dir)

Note: Make sure to replace 'example.docx' with the filename of your Word document.
