It is still unclear to me.
I just want to know if there are some content types associated with
spreadsheets and particularly for ods?
Further should my action have a return render or just return(file.ods)?
My understanding was that paste.fileapp() could do this just as it can
for ods?
So my question is still the same?
An example would be highly appreciated on returning a response with an
ods file.
Happy hacking.

hello all,
a few days back i had asked a doubt on this mailing list about rendering a
pdf file to the browser from a pylons control action.
The solution came in form of paste.fileapp() function which is to be
included before the return statement in a controler action.
I know it takes care of the return mime type etc.
While it was clear that pdf would work well, I am still unsure if it will do
the same for ODS files.
I don't want to render xls files because it is a proprietory format and can
be outdated any time.
So I wish to only make use of the odf format and will like to know How I can
return an ods spreadsheet using fileapp or any thing else.
I can make sure that my client has open office installed so that is no
problem.
the only issue is to render the file to the browser and set the correct
headers like content type.
If you pass a 'content_type' keyword arg to the constructor, it will
override the guessed type. Same for 'content_encoding'. See
FileApp.__init__ .
