PDF Generation

Basic HTML to PDF

$html = '<h1>Invoice #001</h1><p>Total: $99.00</p>';
$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf($html);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoices/invoice.pdf'));

Landscape with Custom Margins

$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf(
    html:        $html,
    pageSize:    'A4',
    orientation: 'landscape',
    margins:     ['top' => 20, 'right' => 25, 'bottom' => 20, 'left' => 25],
);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/reports/landscape.pdf'));

Base64 JSON Response

$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf($html, responseType: 'base64');
$base64Pdf = $response->data['data'];
file_put_contents(storage_path('app/invoice.pdf'), base64_decode($base64Pdf));

Generating PDFs from Complex Templates (Base64 Mode)

When your HTML contains quotes, newlines, inline CSS, or special characters, JSON escaping can cause issues. Base64 mode solves this by encoding the HTML before transport.

Option A: Use the generatePdfFromBase64() Helper (Recommended)

The helper accepts raw HTML and encodes it automatically:

// Load a complex Blade-rendered template
$html = view('invoices.pdf-template', [
    'invoice' => $invoice,
    'items'   => $items,
])->render();

// The SDK Base64-encodes internally — no manual encoding needed
$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdfFromBase64($html);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoices/inv-' . $invoice->id . '.pdf'));

// With full options:
$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdfFromBase64(
    html:        $html,
    responseType: 'binary',
    pageSize:    'Letter',
    orientation: 'landscape',
    margins:     ['top' => 15, 'right' => 20, 'bottom' => 15, 'left' => 20],
    privacyMode: true,
);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoices/inv-' . $invoice->id . '.pdf'));

Option B: Manual Base64 Encoding

If you need full control, encode the HTML yourself and set isBase64: true:

$html = view('invoices.pdf-template', $data)->render();

$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf(
    html:     base64_encode($html),
    isBase64: true,
);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoices/invoice.pdf'));

How It Works

1. The SDK sends the Base64 string in the html field with is_base64: true.
2. The server decodes the Base64 content before validation and rendering.
3. The 512 KB size limit applies to the decoded HTML, not the encoded payload.

Saving Files to Disk

BinaryResponse has a built-in saveAs() that creates directories automatically:

// Save with Laravel's storage_path helper:
$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf($html);
$savedPath = $response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoices/invoice.pdf'));
echo "Saved to: {$savedPath}";

// BinaryResponse also provides:
$response->body;         // Raw binary string
$response->contentType;  // 'application/pdf'
$response->size;         // Size in bytes
$response->isPdf();      // true
$response->toDataUri();  // 'data:application/pdf;base64,...'

// Stream in a controller response:
return response($response->body, 200, [
    'Content-Type'        => $response->contentType,
    'Content-Disposition' => 'attachment; filename="invoice.pdf"',
]);

VPN & Proxy Shield

Detect VPNs, proxies, Tor exit nodes, iCloud Private Relay, and hosting/datacenter IPs.

use Avraapi\Laravel\Facades\AvraAPI;

$result = AvraAPI::security()->checkVpn('8.8.8.8');

echo $result->data['ip_address'];    // '8.8.8.8'
echo $result->data['is_vpn'];        // false
echo $result->data['is_proxy'];      // false
echo $result->data['is_tor'];        // false
echo $result->data['is_relay'];      // false
echo $result->data['is_hosting'];    // false
echo $result->data['country_code'];  // 'US'
echo $result->data['city'];          // 'Mountain View'
echo $result->data['network_name'];  // 'Google LLC'
echo $result->data['provider_name']; // 'vpnapi' or 'iplocate'

// Use in a middleware or controller:
$d = $result->data;
if ($d['is_vpn'] || $d['is_proxy'] || $d['is_tor']) {
    abort(403, 'VPN/Proxy access is not permitted.');
}

Burner Email Shield

Detect temporary and disposable email addresses using a dual-list Redis lookup (7,000+ domains).

$result = AvraAPI::security()->checkBurnerEmail('[e-mail]');

echo $result->data['email'];             // '[e-mail]'
echo $result->data['domain'];            // 'mailinator.com'
echo $result->data['is_valid_syntax'];   // true
echo $result->data['is_disposable'];     // true
echo $result->data['source'];            // 'global', 'custom', or 'none'
echo $result->data['execution_time_ms']; // 0.42

// Guard a registration form in a controller:
if ($result->data['is_disposable']) {
    return back()->withErrors(['email' => 'Disposable emails are not allowed.']);
}

Multi-Currency Rates & Conversion

Free currency exchange rate API — 160+ currencies, 2-hour cached rates, zero credit cost.

Get All Currency Codes

$result = AvraAPI::currency()->getCodes();

echo $result->data['count']; // 161
foreach ($result->data['codes'] as $c) {
    echo "{$c['code']} — {$c['name']}\n"; // 'USD — United States Dollar'
}

Get Latest Rates from a Base Currency

$result = AvraAPI::currency()->getLatestRates('USD');

echo $result->data['base'];              // 'USD'
echo $result->data['last_updated'];      // '2025-05-10T...'
echo $result->data['rates']['EUR'];      // 0.89123456
echo $result->data['rates']['LKR'];      // 298.50000000

Get Pair Rate

$result = AvraAPI::currency()->getPairRate('USD', 'EUR');

echo $result->data['rate'];         // 0.89123456
echo $result->data['last_updated']; // '2025-05-10T...'

Convert an Amount

$result = AvraAPI::currency()->convert('USD', 'LKR', 100.00);

$d = $result->data;
echo "{$d['amount']} {$d['base']} = {$d['conversion_result']} {$d['target']}";
// "100 USD = 29850.000000 LKR"

Privacy Mode

For sensitive documents (invoices, contracts, PII), enable privacy mode to exclude HTML content from observability logs:

$response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf($html, privacyMode: true);
$response->saveAs(storage_path('app/confidential/report.pdf'));

Error Handling

All SDK exceptions propagate through the Facade and can be caught in controllers or registered in Laravel's exception handler:

use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixAuthenticationException;
use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixInsufficientFundsException;
use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixRateLimitException;
use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixValidationException;
use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixException;

try {
    $response = AvraAPI::utilities()->generatePdf($html);
    $response->saveAs(storage_path('app/invoice.pdf'));
} catch (ApixRateLimitException $e) {
    // HTTP 429 — retry later
    return back()->with('error', 'Rate limited. Please try again shortly.');
} catch (ApixInsufficientFundsException $e) {
    // HTTP 402 — top up wallet
    return back()->with('error', 'Insufficient balance.');
} catch (ApixValidationException $e) {
    // HTTP 422 — bad input
    return back()->withErrors($e->getValidationErrors());
} catch (ApixException $e) {
    // Catch-all
    report($e);
    return back()->with('error', 'PDF generation failed.');
}

Registering in Laravel's Exception Handler

// bootstrap/app.php (Laravel 11+) or app/Exceptions/Handler.php

use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixValidationException;
use Avraapi\Apix\Exceptions\ApixException;

$exceptions->render(function (ApixValidationException $e) {
    return response()->json([
        'error'   => $e->getErrorCode(),
        'message' => $e->getMessage(),
        'fields'  => $e->getValidationErrors(),
    ], 422);
});

$exceptions->render(function (ApixException $e) {
    return response()->json([
        'error'      => $e->getErrorCode(),
        'message'    => $e->getMessage(),
        'request_id' => $e->getRequestId(),
    ], $e->getHttpStatus() ?: 500);
});
