Yes i forgot to mention that the new report module natively support
excel reports (or anything else, png, svg, odt...).
For an excel report you should define a controller that output the
file. For excel 97 you may use xlwt, for excel 2007 and above you
could use qweb with the bloated office xml format xlsx.
@http.route('/mymodule/report/mymodel_excel97_report1/<str:ids>',
type='http', auth="user")
def export_xls(self,ids):
workbook = xlwt.Workbook()
(...)
response = request.make_response(None, headers=[('Content-Type',
'application/vnd.ms-excel'), ('Content-Disposition', 'attachment;
filename=table.xls;')])
workbook.save(response.stream)
return response
Then you define a 'qweb-pdf' report (yes we need to rename this into
'controller').
We will add an example in the report module.

Antony,
What about generating spreadsheets or text documents? Have you looked
for
something like wkhtmltopdf that is capable of generating a xls, doc,
ods or
odt from an html? Is it in your plans?
This could be, I think, the missing feature to ensure the community
is on
board with this change.
I really like the qweb report engine. You guys have done a great job.
We will
start migrating our main report set for the localization by the end
of March.
Do you have an idea of when will it be merged in trunk (more or
less)? This
can help to plan our work to prepare for v8.
