A flexible, driver-based PDF generation package for Laravel. This package allows you to decouple your PDF templates from specific libraries (like TCPDF or Dompdf), making your application more maintainable and ready for future engine swaps (e.g., adding Indic font support).

Features
--------

[](#features)

- **Driver-Based Architecture**: Switch between engines (TCPDF, Dompdf, etc.) without changing your template logic.
- **Unified API**: Clean, Laravel-style Facade for generating documents.
- **Template Inheritance**: Simplified base classes for building complex PDF reports.
- **Hook System**: Integrated support for Headers, Footers, and Watermarks via simple interfaces.
- **Fluent API**: Easily stream or download files.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- **PHP**: `^8.2`
- **Laravel**: `^10.0` | `^11.0` | `^12.0` | `^13.0`

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require tenthfeet/laravel-pdf
```

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

[](#installation-1)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require tenthfeet/laravel-pdf
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Publish the configuration file:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=pdf-config
```

In `config/pdf.php`, you can set the default driver and configure individual engine settings:

```
return [
    'default' => env('PDF_DRIVER', 'tcpdf'),

    'drivers' => [
        'tcpdf' => [
            'class' => \Tenthfeet\Pdf\Adapters\TcpdfAdapter::class,
        ],
        // ...
    ],
];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### 1. Create a Template

[](#1-create-a-template)

Extend the `PdfDocument` class and implement the `body` method.

```
namespace App\Pdf\Templates;

use Tenthfeet\Pdf\PdfDocument;
use Tenthfeet\Pdf\Contracts\PdfAdapter;

class MyReport extends PdfDocument
{
    public function body(PdfAdapter $pdf): void
    {
        $pdf->writeHTML("This is the document body.");
    }
}
```

### 2. Hooks & Interfaces

[](#2-hooks--interfaces)

You can add headers, footers, or watermarks to your templates by implementing the corresponding interfaces.

#### Headers & Footers

[](#headers--footers)

Implement `HasHeader` or `HasFooter` to inject content into every page.

```
use Tenthfeet\Pdf\Contracts\HasHeader;
use Tenthfeet\Pdf\Contracts\HasFooter;

class MyReport extends PdfDocument implements HasHeader, HasFooter
{
    public function header(PdfAdapter $pdf): void
    {
        $pdf->writeHTML("Page Header");
    }

    public function footer(PdfAdapter $pdf): void
    {
        $pdf->SetY(-15);
        $pdf->writeHTML("Page Footnote");
    }

    public function body(PdfAdapter $pdf): void
    {
        // ...
    }
}
```

#### Watermarks

[](#watermarks)

Implement `HasWatermark` to add a background watermark.

```
use Tenthfeet\Pdf\Contracts\HasWatermark;

class MyReport extends PdfDocument implements HasWatermark
{
    public function watermark(PdfAdapter $pdf, string $text = 'DRAFT'): void
    {
        // You can use the built-in helper from the base class
        parent::watermark($pdf, $text);
    }
}
```

### 3. Generate the PDF

[](#3-generate-the-pdf)

Using the `Pdf` facade:

```
use Tenthfeet\Pdf\Facades\Pdf;
use App\Pdf\Templates\InvoiceReport;

public function download(Request $request)
{
    $document = new InvoiceReport($request->all());

    return Pdf::make($document)->download('invoice.pdf');
}
```

### 3. Swapping Drivers

[](#3-swapping-drivers)

You can override the driver globally in your `.env` or per-template by adding a `$driver` property:

```
class SpecialReport extends PdfDocument
{
    public ?string $driver = 'dompdf'; // Force this template to use Dompdf
}
```
