Error: no export filter for /usr/src/app/tmp-1foTIGj1B16ym.rtf found, aborting

Congratulations on the project!
I am not able to convert an html file to rtf. I get the following notification:
Error: no export filter for /usr/src/app/tmp-1foTIGj1B16ym.rtf found, aborting.
Error: no export filter

async function convertHtmlToRtf() { try { let req = request.post(' http://conversion:4000/convert/') let form = req.form() form.append('file', fs.createReadStream('./storage/test.html')) form.append('format', 'rtf') req.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('./storage/test.rtf')) } catch (err) { console.error(err) } }

Hi @Valterrsj,

I had to add some functionality in order to get this to work. For some reason, LibreOffice doesn't have rtf in the list of available output filters for a web document. I was able to get it to work by specifying the output filter manually.

Download the latest code and try form.append('format', 'rtf:Rich Text Format') instead.

You can find the list of supported input and output filters for LibreOffice here if you need them:
https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/refs/heads/master/filter/source/config/fragments/filters

Hopefully that works for you.

Thanks!

Hi @sgbj!

Thank you very much for the quick response! I tested it again and now I am getting this error.

conversion | [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'tmp-1J8oyRsaMz0wf.rtf:Rich Text Format'] {
conversion | errno: -2,
conversion | code: 'ENOENT',
conversion | syscall: 'open',
conversion | path: 'tmp-1J8oyRsaMz0wf.rtf:Rich Text Format'
conversion | }

The inclusion of filters in "format" is generating a temporary file with an invalid extension. Below is my code:

const convertHtmlToRtf = () => { try { let req = request.post('http://conversion:4000/convert') let form = req.form() form.append( 'file', fs.createReadStream(path.join(__dirname, '../storage/test.html')) ) form.append('format', 'rtf:Rich Text Format') req.pipe( fs.createWriteStream(path.join(__dirname, '../storage/test2.rtf')) ) } catch (err) { console.error(err) } }

Hey @Valterrsj, can you confirm that you have downloaded the latest version of the code and rebuilt the Docker image (if you're using Docker)? It has code that splits on the : and only uses the first part as the file extension, so it shouldn't be trying to create a file with that extension.
