assert-pdfs
===========

[](#assert-pdfs)

A simple assertion package to work with PDFs and PHPUnit.

Please ensure that you have Imagick install/available and it has permission to write to PDF ([see this post on stack overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/a/38222027)). You may need to run something like:

` sudo sed -i -e 's/rights="none" pattern="PDF"/rights="read|write" pattern="PDF"/' /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml`

This is effectively a package up of [this starting point from Gordon Lesti](https://gordonlesti.com/phpunit-compare-generated-pdf-files-with-imagick).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`composer require --dev konsulting/assert-pdfs`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use the `Konsulting\Testing\AssertPdfs` trait on your test class. Available methods:

` assertPdfSame($assertedPdf, $testPdf, $saveDiffToFile = null)` - You can optionally save the diff of the pdf on failure to a file by providing a path to save to.

Hopefully we can add some more methods when we need them (or you do).
