The example_client may help answer your question: https://github.com/robsco-git/spreadsheet_server/blob/master...

I don't quite follow your question but I'll give it a shot. Here is a high level version of how I am currently using the tool: A user is presented with a bunch of input variables on a web page that are then set by the user. These variables are sent to the server and the server sets the relevant cells using spreadsheet_server. Resultant values from other cells are retrieved by spreadsheet_server and then sent back to the web page and presented to the user in the form of a graph or table etc.

Pretty much all of the logic to get from input to output is handled in the spreadsheet by LibreOffice.
