Hi Mike,

That would be a good answer to have, because finding documentation on this 
topic is tricky. Here is how I currently handle this in Python:

    pipe = …
    p = subprocess.Popen("/…/soffice --accept='pipe,name=" + pipe + 
";url;StarOffice.ServiceManager' --headless --invisible", shell=True)
    # Wait for the pipe to become available.
    local = uno.getComponentContext() 
    resolver = 
local.ServiceManager.createInstanceWithContext("com.sun.star.bridge.UnoUrlResolver”,
 local)
    context = resolver.resolve("uno:pipe,name=" + pipe + 
";urp;StarOffice.ComponentContext")
    desktop = 
context.ServiceManager.createInstanceWithContext("com.sun.star.frame.Desktop", 
context)
    # Load the document
    docfile = …
    document = desktop.loadComponentFromURL("file://" + docfile, "_blank", 0, 
props)

This creates a new office process and open the Writer document and connects to 
it. Note the absence of the custom user installation (for performance reasons)! 
Once I’m done with it, then:

    document.close(True) # or if XCloseable doesn’t exist: document.dispose()
    desktop.terminate()                                                         
             
    # context.??                                                                
             
    # resolver.??                                                               
             
    # local.??                                                                  
             
    p.terminate()                                                               
             

The termination of the process p seems to destroy the other running soffice 
process. Hence using custom user installations with 
-env:UserInstallation=/tmp/random-dir but that just prolongs the process 
creation noticeably!

Thanks!
Jens
