Running part of the code on the web

[bonninr]

Hello,
I've been intending to produce some web based organ edition utilities, and found that the excellent Python classes from ODFEdit are all I needed to understand and represent those files. So I extracted the main data classes, and was able to run them in a browser, loading a sample Organ File, and accessing the data dictionary from a web browser, using the Pyodide framework. There's no more functionality than that at the moment, but I'll keep you posted if it's of interest.
Best regards.

Interresting reuse of the source code of OdfEdit 👍

Hi, I wanted to let you know I've built a web-based frontend for OdfEdit that runs entirely in the browser: OdfEdit Web, available at https://www.openpipes.org/odfweb/

It works by running the original OdfEdit Python script unchanged inside the browser using Pyodide (Python compiled to WebAssembly), with a React interface around it. No installation required — the Python logic runs locally in the user's tab.

It supports opening and editing .organ files, inline attribute editing, ODF validation, and the Hauptwerk → GrandOrgue conversion functionality.

All the core logic is this project's original work — I'm simply wrapping it to make it accessible without requiring a Python installation. A link to this repository is included in the app.

I wanted to share it here in case it's useful to the community. Happy to answer any questions.

Thank you for giving to users this way to use OdfEdit without any installation. I have added this option in the README of the project.

@bonninr : it would be good to display somewhere in the web page which version of OdfEdit is used.
