mso_metadata

About

Prerequisites

• Ruby 3.x

Install

Add the following line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mso_metadata'

And then execute:

bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

gem install mso_metadata

Usage

Reading

require 'mso_metadata'

# Create a Docx::Document object for our existing docx file
metadata = MsoMetadata.read('example.docx')

# metadata consists two hashes: metadata[:core] and metadata[:custom]
# custom metadata could be set with arbitrary key values. Thats why we have to split it, to prevent key value collisions.

puts metadata[:core]
puts metadata[:custom]

Development

This was just a fast solution to wrap the code needed to retrieve the metadata from office files.
