dompdfmodule

DOMPDF library wrapper as lightweight ZF2/ZF3 module.

Requirements

• Zend Framework 2 or 3

Installation

Installation of DOMPDFModule uses PHP Composer. For more information about PHP Composer, please visit the official PHP Composer site.

Installation steps

1. cd my/project/directory

2. create a composer.json file with following contents:

   {
       "require": {
           "mikemix/dompdfmodule": "^3.0"
       }
   }

3. install PHP Composer via curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php (on windows, download http://getcomposer.org/installer and execute it with PHP)

4. run php composer.phar install

5. open my/project/directory/config/application.config.php and add the following key to your modules:

   'dompdfmodule',

Configuration options

You can override default options via the dompdf key in your local or global config files. See the dompdfmoule\Service\dompdfFactory.php file for the list of default settings.

Full list of possible settings is available at the official DOMPDF library site.

Example usage

Side note: use of getServiceLocator() in the controller is deprecated since in ZF3. Make sure you create your controller via a factory and inject the Dompdf object in the constructor.

<?php

// some controller

    public function indexAction()
    {
        /** @var \Dompdf\Dompdf $dompdf */
        $dompdf = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('dompdf');
        $dompdf->load_html('<strong>Ehlo World</strong>');
        $dompdf->render();

        file_put_contents(__DIR__ . '/document.pdf', $dompdf->output());
    }
