I have a question for those of you doing web work with python. Is anyone familiar with a python based reporting tool? I am about to start on a pretty big web app and will need the ability to do some end user reporting (invoices, revenue reports, etc). It can be an existing django app or anything python based so I can hook into it. Thanks!
You can use reportlab for creating pdf. And you can look at http://www.zopyx.de/blog/smartprintng-state-of-the-art-web-to-print-with (despite the first paragraph: usable outside of plone) for some inspiration.
Several projects are using open office: define a template in open office and use the python bindings to fill the documents with your data. Also apparently works "headless", so on the server without opening the UI.
Depends on your usecase :-) These ought to at least give you some more google inspiration.
