pdfgen microservice

Note: This project is in alpha phase. However it is workable and safe.

Http microservice that renders html into pdf.
You will not need a back-end developer assistance to create dynamic pdf documents. PDF is a visual thing so it should be done on html or react.

Installation

  1. You need to install wkhtmltopdf. You can install it on freebsd / ubuntu / mac os.
  2. Your php running on a web-server should be able to execute CLI

Under the hood

This project provides an API wrapper around
https://github.com/mikehaertl/phpwkhtmltopdf
which is in turn a laravel wrapper around
wkhtmltopdf console utility
https://wkhtmltopdf.org/
which is in turn a wrapper around qtwebbrowser http://www.qtweb.net/
Qtweb has similar capabilities to IE11. In the same time qtweb does not render anything in a strange way.
It it is very good. Will give you no problems.
