Controller Trait
The controller trait is the easiest way to generate a pdf:
<?php
namespace AppBundle\Controller;
use Massive\Bundle\PdfBundle\Controller\RenderPdfTrait;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
class YourController extends Controller
{
use RenderPdfTrait;
public function pdfAction(Request $request): Response
{
return $this->renderPdf(
'@pdfs/your.html.twig',
[
'parameter' => 'hello'
],
$request->getRequestFormat()
);
}
}Register the route with default _format as pdf:
<route id="your.pdf" path="/your.{_format}">
<default key="_controller">AppBundle:Your:pdf</default>
<default key="_format">pdf</default>
</route>Now you can access the pdf with /your or use /your.html to get a html response (good for development).
Generate Pdf
/** @var \Massive\Bundle\PdfBundle\Pdf\PdfFactory $pdfFactory */
$pdfFactory = $this->get('massive_pdf.pdf_factory'); // get the service or inject it in your services configuration
$pdf = $pdfFactory->create('pdf.html.twig');Embedding local assets
The local_asset avoids doing a http request by using file:// instead of https:// for performance improvement:
<img src="{{ local_asset('/images/image.jpg') }}" alt="Local Asset">This will only work when $request->getRequestFormat() will return pdf.
