Programming OpenOffice with External Python Project

[bobthebuilder]

I am unable to program Openoffice documents from a python project.

Here is my Python code:

filename = 'somefile.ods'

import Danny.OOo.OOoLib as OOoLib
import unohelper
import os.path

url = unohelper.systemPathToFileUrl(
    os.path.abspath(filename))
desktop = OOoLib.getDesktop()
doc = desktop.loadComponentFromURL(
    url, "_blank", 0, () )

The error I get is:
File "c:\users\public\documents\python\openofficetest.py", line 3, in <module>
import Danny.OOo.OOoLib as OOoLib
File "c:\users\public\documents\python\Danny\OOo\OOoLib.py", line 38, in <module>
import uno
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'uno'

First I am not sure which folder to put the “Danny.OOo.OOoLib as OOoLib”
Second what does the “No module named 'uno” error mean?

Can anyone answer this and show what is needed to eliminate the errors and have Python talk to OpenOffice.

From your paths I see you are on windows. You are aware you usually have two pythons on your system, after you installed python for windows? One installed by you for external projects, one inside LibreOffice - and they don't know anything of each other.

Another problem may be APSO wich can hide pythonpath from projects inside LibreOffice...

No module named 'uno' means, the active python can not find a module named uno in its search path. If this is a problem of the module not being there or an incomplete search-path or just activation if the wrong venv I can't say.
