Installation

  • Add MpdfPortBundle repository to your deps file:
[MpdfPortBundle]
    git=https://github.com/tasmanianfox/MpdfPortBundle.git
    target=/bundles/TFox/Bundle/MpdfPortBundle
  • Run Vendors install utility in your Symfony2 directory:
php bin/vendors install
  • Register MpdfPortBundle's namespace in /app/autoload.php:
$loader->registerNamespaces(array(
    'TFox'  		=> __DIR__.'/../vendor/bundles'
    /*
     * Another declarations here
     */
));
  • Register MpdfPortBundle in /app/AppKernel.php:

public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            /*
         	   * Another declarations here
       	     */
            	new TFox\Bundle\MpdfPortBundle\MpdfPortBundle()
        );
    }
  • Add a link to bundle in configuration file /app/config/config.yml:

imports:
    #Another declarations here
    \- { resource: @MpdfPortBundle/Resources/config/services.yml }

How to use

To create an instance of mPDF class, call mpdfport service's method getMPdf():


$mpdf = $this->get('mpdfport')->getMPdf();

Further information about mPDF class usage you can find on mPDF's manual page: http://mpdf1.com/manual/index.php

Example

Here is a small example of PDF file generation:


    /**
     * Defining action inside some controller
     * @Route("/document.pdf")
     */
    public function pdfAction() {
    	//Obtaining an object of mPDF class
    	$mpdf = $this->get('mpdfport')->getMPdf(); 
    	 
     //Declaration of PDF document's contents
    	$html = "<html><head></head><body>Hello World!</body></html>";
    	//Writing contents into mPDF object
    	$mpdf->WriteHTML($html, 0);
    	//Receiving generated PDF document
    	$content = $mpdf->Output('', 'S');
    	
	    /*
       * Generation of response object, assigning content of respone and setting response's MIME-type to PDF
       */
    	$response = new Response();
    	$response->setContent($content);
    	$response->headers->set('Content-Type', 'application/pdf');
    	return $response;
    }
