Dlin Symfony Snappy Bundle provides a configurable service to work with PDF files --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) Installation using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) NOTE: Unfortunately, Composer does not support repositories in nested dependencies, we have to include dependencies and repositories in the root composer.json. Add to your `composer.json`: ``` json { "require" : { .... "dlin/snappy-bundle": "dev-master", "google/wkhtmltopdf-amd64": "0.11.0-RC1", "google/wkhtmltopdf-i386": "0.11.0-RC1", }, .... "repositories": [ { "type": "package", "package": { "name": "google/wkhtmltopdf-amd64", "version": "0.11.0-RC1", "dist": { "url": "http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1-static-amd64.tar.bz2", "type": "tar" } } }, { "type": "package", "package": { "name": "google/wkhtmltopdf-i386", "version": "0.11.0-RC1", "dist": { "url": "http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1-static-i386.tar.bz2", "type": "tar" } } } ] } ``` Enable the bundle in you AppKernel.php ``` public function registerBundles() { $bundles = array( ... new Dlin\Bundle\SnappyBundle\DlinSnappyBundle(), ... } ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) You can specify the installation location of wkhtmltopdf ``` #app/config/config.yml dlin_snappy: pdf_service: wkhtmltopdf: /Applications/wkhtmltopdf.app/Contents/MacOS/wkhtmltopdf ``` For most OS, this bundle will try to download and install the wkhtmltopdf binary itself. No configuration is required unless you want to use a different wkhtmltopdf binary. For Mac servers, one will have to download the DMG file and install it. The above configuration is required. Usage ----- [](#usage) Geting the service in a controller ``` $pdf = $this->get('dlin.pdf_service'); ``` Getting the service in a ContainerAwareService ``` $pdf = $this->container->get('dlin.pdf_service'); ``` Using the method "createPdfFromHtml" ``` #Pdf will be created (replace if already exist) as file '/tmp/test.pdf' $pdf->createPdfFromHtml('hello', '/tmp/test.pdf'); ``` Using the method "createPdfFromUrl" ``` #Pdf will be created (replace if already exist) as file '/tmp/test.pdf' $pdf->createPdfFromUrl('google.com', '/tmp/test.pdf'); ``` Download to browser (HTTP headers will be set and script terminates) ``` $pdf->sendHtmlAsPdf('hello', 'downloadFileName.pdf'); #or $pdf->sendUrlAsPdf('google.com', 'downloadFileName.pdf'); ``` Show PDF inline in browser (HTTP headers will be set and script terminates) ``` $pdf->sendHtmlAsPdf('hello', 'downloadFileName.pdf', true); #or $pdf->sendUrlAsPdf('google.com', 'downloadFileName.pdf', true); ``` Notes ----- [](#notes) - MAMP user couldl have problem using wkhtmltopdf. Please solve the problem [here](http://oneqonea.blogspot.in/2012/04/why-does-wkhtmltopdf-work-via-terminal.html) - Mac OSX requires its own wkhtmltopdf binnary. You can download it [here](https://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/downloads/list). - On your \*nix server, you might need to install a library (sudo apt-get install libxrender1) License ------- [](#license) MIT *Free Software, Yeah!* ### Health Score 25 — LowBetter than 35% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity12 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity51 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
