A simple Laravel service provider with some basic configuration for including the TCPDF library to allow you to merge PDF's in your Laravel application.

Installation

The Laravel PDF Merger service provider can be installed via composer by requiring the oriceon/laravel-pdf-merger package in your project's composer.json.

composer require oriceon/laravel-pdf-merger

for lumen, you should add the following lines:

$app->register(Oriceon\PdfMerger\PdfMergerServiceProvider::class);
class_alias(Oriceon\PdfMerger\Facades\TCPDF::class, 'PDF');

That's it! You're good to go.

Here is a little example:

use Oriceon\PdfMerger\Facades\PdfMerger;

PdfMerger::addPDF('path/to/pdf1.pdf', 1)
->addPDF('path/to/pdf2.pdf', 'all')
->merge()
->save('new_file_name.pdf', 'browser');

or sending pdf's as array ...

use Oriceon\PdfMerger\Facades\PdfMerger;

PdfMerger::addPDF([
    [
        'filePath' => 'path/to/pdf1.pdf',
        'pages'    => 1,
    ],
    [
        'filePath' => 'path/to/pdf2.pdf',
    ],
])
->merge()
->save('new_file_name.pdf', 'browser');
