Roadmap

Tracks where mindoff-dataport stands today and what is likely to come next.

It is not a release promise. It is the clearest current picture of direction.

Current Status

• Extract .xlsx templates into a reusable schema
• Inspect template inputs with a sheet-scoped contract
• Compile runtime data into a portable ReportBundle
• Export compiled bundles to .xlsx
• Export compiled bundles to .pdf
• Reuse one compiled bundle across both .xlsx and .pdf outputs
• Support dataframe placeholders in templates
• Support repeat sections and dynamic sheets
• Support streaming XLSX export for large datasets
• Preserve template-driven layout, styles, merges, and page-break-aware rendering
• Support PDF pagination and optional custom fonts

Planned

Near Term

• CSV export
• Excel-friendly CSV export presets or helpers
• Google Sheets export
• Image export

PDF Improvements

• Flatten PDF option
• Compressed PDF option

Codebase Improvements

• Leaner internal architecture
• Better-organized modules and file boundaries
• More minimalist contributor-facing structure

Notes

• CSV and Excel-friendly CSV export are related, but they may not land as the same API shape.
• Google Sheets export likely needs a different write path than .xlsx and .pdf.
• Image export needs a tighter definition before implementation starts. It could mean sheet snapshots, page rendering, or selected-region export.
• PDF flattening and PDF compression may involve fidelity and file-size trade-offs.
