README
This package is based on a fork from laravel-dompdf, modified to meet the constraints of a laravel 5.3 project i'm currently working on.
If you need a pdf package for all laravel versions, please check laravel-dompdf.
Laravel 5.3
After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in app/config/app.php
'Abiodunjames\Prodigypdf\ServiceProvider',
You can optionally use the facade for shorter code. Add this to your facades:
'PDF' => 'Abiodunjames\Prodigypdf\Facade',
Mail certificate to user
$pdf= PDF::loadView('prodigypdf::certificate',[]);
$email ='example@gmail.com';
return $pdf->sendTo($email);
Save document to path
$pdf= PDF::loadView('prodigypdf::certificate',[]);
$path= $pdf->saveToPath('/document'); //save to /storage/document
You can create a new DOMPDF instance and load a HTML string, file or view name. You can save it to a file, or stream (show in browser) or download.
$pdf = App::make('prodigypdf');
$pdf->loadHTML('<h1>Test</h1>');
return $pdf->stream();
Or use the facade:
$pdf = PDF::loadView('pdf.invoice', $data);
return $pdf->download('invoice.pdf');
You can chain the methods:
return PDF::loadFile(public_path().'/myfile.html')->save('/path-to/my_stored_file.pdf')->stream('download.pdf');
You can change the orientation and paper size, and hide or show errors (by default, errors are shown when debug is on)
PDF::loadHTML($html)->setPaper('a4')->setOrientation('landscape')->setWarnings(false)->save('myfile.pdf')
If you need the output as a string, you can get the rendered PDF with the output() function, so you can save/output it yourself.
You can copy the config-file (config/dompdf.php
) to your local config to change some settings (default paper etc).
You can also use your ConfigProvider to set certain keys.
Tip: UTF-8 support
In your templates, set the UTF-8 Metatag:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
