Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` { "require": { "ivoba/silverstripe-simple-pdf-preview": "~2.0" } } ``` Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - SilverStripe 6 - you will need the Imagick extension. For SilverStripe 5 use v2.5. For SilverStripe 4 use v2.4. For SilverStripe 3 use v1. Usage ----- [](#usage) In your template just call `$Pdf.getPdfPreviewImage` where $Pdf is your File Object, containing a pdf file. You then have a normal Image object, on which you can apply all methods you usually can apply on an image in SilverStripe. F.e.: `$Pdf.getPdfPreviewImage.Fill(60,60)` If you call this method on a non-pdf file, null will be returned. Config ------ [](#config) You can override all Params in your config.yml. ``` Ivoba\SilverStripe\SimplePdfPreview\SimplePdfPreviewImageExtension: dependencies: generator: %$Ivoba\SilverStripe\SimplePdfPreview\SimplePdfPreviewImagickGenerator folderToSave: "assets/someOtherFolder/" imagePrefix: "pdf-foobar" Injector: Ivoba\SilverStripe\SimplePdfPreview\SimplePdfPreviewImagickGenerator: class: Ivoba\SilverStripe\SimplePdfPreview\SimplePdfPreviewExecGenerator ``` You can create your own Generator class, simply implement `SimplePdfPreviewGeneratorInterface`. This could be the case, when we you dont want to use Imagick but ImageMagick directly via exec. Tests ----- [](#tests) To run tests for bundle standalone: start the docker container: ``` docker-compose run php bash ``` inside the container run: ``` SS_DATABASE_NAME=ss SS_DATABASE_PASSWORD=ss SS_DATABASE_SERVER=db SS_DATABASE_USERNAME=ss vendor/bin/phpunit ``` Disclaimer ---------- [](#disclaimer) This extension is "simple" because it will just create a loose Image object. Mapping happens over the filename. So its rather risky, but sufficient for most cases. Somebody please make a better PDF extension, with a PDF File type, a PDF FileField and a preview image generation after upload. :) License ------- [](#license) The MIT License (MIT).
