What makes you think a temporary file isn't best?

When in doubt, try the simplest approach first:
Use a string (or byte-string if it's not text) for each of the header,
body, and footer. Append data to each as desired and then write them
out to a file when you're done.
If that's not workable, explain why, and we can tell you what to try
next (probably a stringio for each section, or a list of strings or
byte-strings for each section, or temporary files).
