Shows how to insert a TOC field, and filter which TC fields end up as entries.

def field_toc_entry_identifier():
    doc = aw.Document()
    builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
    # Insert a TOC field, which will compile all TC fields into a table of contents.
    field_toc = builder.insert_field(aw.fields.FieldType.FIELD_TOC, True).as_field_toc()
    # Configure the field only to pick up TC entries of the "A" type, and an entry-level between 1 and 3.
    field_toc.entry_identifier = 'A'
    field_toc.entry_level_range = '1-3'
    self.assertEqual(' TOC  \\f A \\l 1-3', field_toc.get_field_code())
    # These two entries will appear in the table.
    builder.insert_break(aw.BreakType.PAGE_BREAK)
    insert_toc_entry(builder, 'TC field 1', 'A', '1')
    insert_toc_entry(builder, 'TC field 2', 'A', '2')

    # This entry will be omitted from the table because it has a different type from "A".

    # This entry will be omitted from the table because it has an entry-level outside of the 1-3 range.

    doc.update_fields()
    doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Field.tc.docx')
