ep_table_export

HTML and DOCX export support for ep_data_tables.

By default, ep_data_tables does not export tables to HTML or DOCX. This plugin adds proper <table> rendering in all Etherpad exports.

Requirements

• ep_data_tables must be installed

Installation

Via the Etherpad admin panel — search for ep_table_export.

Or from the command line:

pnpm run plugins i ep_table_export

How it works

ep_data_tables stores each table row as a separate Etherpad line with a tbljson attribute containing table metadata (table ID, row index, column widths). Cells within a row are separated by the Unicode delimiter ␟.

This plugin hooks into getLineHTMLForExport, detects table rows, and emits proper <table><tbody><tr><td> HTML. Column widths are preserved if set by the user.
