A Django app to generate pdfs from templates
Project description
Attention
This is a fork of the https://github.com/xhtml2pdf/django-xhtml2pdf project.
This project is wrapper code between the django project and the xhtml2pdf project, both have a few maintaining so maybe are not ideal for your project.
What it does is simply allow people to create xhtml2pdf templates using all the cool django things like STATIC_URL etc.. (like one would for a webpage template), and the utils function makes all the images and resources appear in the pdf.
This release (0.0.5) supports Django 2.0, and Python 3.6.
NOTE:
While this project is being maintained on a limited basis for legacy projects, we recommend strongly that new projects consider using WeasyPrint <https://weasyprint.org>.
Usage
Simply do the following:
from django_xhtml2pdf.utils import generate_pdf def myview(response): resp = HttpResponse(content_type='application/pdf') result = generate_pdf('my_template.html', file_object=resp) return result
Class-based views
You can use the provided PdfMixin with any view that subclasses TemplateView, example:
from django.views.generic.detail import DetailView from django_xhtml2pdf.views import PdfMixin from .models import Product class ProductPdfView(PdfMixin, DetailView): model = Product template_name = "product_pdf.html"
It will output the rendered content of the view in pdf.
Decorator
Simply do the following:
from django_xhtml2pdf.utils import pdf_decorator @pdf_decorator def myview(request): return render(request, 'mytemplate.html')
Change the pdf file name:
from django_xhtml2pdf.utils import pdf_decorator @pdf_decorator(pdfname='new_filename.pdf') def myview(request): return render(request, 'mytemplate.html')
