The README.md

What is this?

Basically: wkhtmltopdf php bindings., (*1)

Installation?

Straightforward:, (*2)

composer require ivanpepelko/php-wkhtmltopdf

Get it running...

...easily:, (*3)

<?php

use WkHtmlToPdf\WkHtmlToPdf;

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$pdf = new WkHtmlToPdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf');
$pdf->setInputPath('html/invoice.html')
    ->setOutputPath('pdf/invoice.pdf')
    ->useRecommendedOptions()
    ->convert()
;

or:, (*4)

<?php

use WkHtmlToPdf\WkHtmlToPdf;

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$pdf = new WkHtmlToPdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf');

header("Content-type:application/pdf");
header("Content-Disposition:attachment;filename='hello.pdf'");

echo $pdf->setInputHtml('
        <!DOCTYPE html>
            <html>
                <head><title>Hello world!</title></head>
                <body><h1>Hello</h1><p>world!</p></body>
            </html>
        </html>
        ')
        ->useRecommendedOptions()
        ->convert()
        ->output()
;

or something like that., (*5)

The first parameter passed to constructor is path to wkhtmltopdf binary. I recommend these (wkhtmltopdf with patched qt): * h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-amd64 * h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-i386, (*6)

Other stuff

Full docs, (*7)

Headers & Footers

<?php
$pdf->setFooterCenterText($text)
    ->setHeaderLeftText($text)
    ->setFooterSpacing($spacing)
    ->setHeaderFontName($name)
    ->setFooterHtml($html); // etc, you get the point

In header and footer text string the following variables will be substituted: * [page] Replaced by the number of the pages currently being printed * [frompage] Replaced by the number of the first page to be printed * [topage] Replaced by the number of the last page to be printed * [webpage] Replaced by the URL of the page being printed * [section] Replaced by the name of the current section * [subsection] Replaced by the name of the current subsection * [date] Replaced by the current date in system local format * [isodate] Replaced by the current date in ISO 8601 extended format * [time] Replaced by the current time in system local format * [title] Replaced by the title of the of the current page object * [doctitle] Replaced by the title of the output document * [sitepage] Replaced by the number of the page in the current site being converted * [sitepages] Replaced by the number of pages in the current site being converted, (*8)

Also, you are able to define additional variables with addHeaderFooterVar() or addHeaderFooterVars() methods:, (*9)

<?php
$pdf->addHeaderFooterVar('var1', 'value2')
    ->addHeaderFooterVars(['var3' => 'value4']);

Note: this will not work with html (setHeaderHtml() or setFooterHtml())., (*10)

Note 2: wkhtmltopdf has an issue with html headers and footer where it adds them gray background (issue#2416 - to be fixed in 0.12.4)., (*11)

Caching:

<?php
$pdf->setCacheDir($dir);
