…ffice Extends attachment_preview to support DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, DOC, XLS, PPT, and ODG in addition to the existing PDF + ODF format support. New endpoint: GET /attachment_preview/office_to_pdf Accepts ?model=<model>&field=<field>&id=<id>&filename=<name> Converts the binary field content to PDF using LibreOffice headless, then streams the PDF to ViewerJS for in-browser rendering. Returns HTTP 503 gracefully if LibreOffice is not installed. Changes: - controllers/main.py: new HTTP controller with LibreOffice conversion - utils.esm.js: OFFICE_EXTENSIONS added to canPreview(); getUrl() routes Office files to the conversion endpoint - binary_field.esm.js: passes filename for correct extension detection - tests: controller unit tests covering success, FileNotFoundError, TimeoutExpired, and non-zero exit code paths Closes OCA#603
