Orcgen is a Go package that enables an easy-to-use conversion of web pages and HTML content to various file formats like PDF, PNG, and JPEG. The underlying implementation uses the Rod library for the page conversion.
Orcgen provides the following functionalities:
-
Conversion of web pages and HTML content to a static file (PNG, PDF...).
- This can be done simply using the Generate function, but if you need prior configuration, you can access all the webdriver functionalities.
- You can also use the other functions at orcgen.go, as specified in the examples page.
-
FileInfo: A struct to standardize the returns and file saves. There's a Output function that writes the content to a output file.
-
Handlers: The implementations of the page file save functionality (PDF / Screenshots).
-
Webdriver: Simple wrapper over rod library.
To use Orcgen, you can install it via Go modules:
go get github.com/luabagg/orcgen
Then you can import it in your Go code:
import "github.com/luabagg/orcgen"
import "github.com/luabagg/orcgen"
// Webpage conversion
orcgen.Generate(
"https://www.github.com",
proto.PageCaptureScreenshot{
Format: proto.PageCaptureScreenshotFormatWebp,
},
"github.webp",
)
// HTML conversion
orcgen.Generate(
[]byte("my html"),
proto.PagePrintToPDF{
Landscape: true,
PrintBackground: true,
PreferCSSPageSize: true,
},
"html.pdf",
)
The package comes with examples that demonstrate the usage of the various functions and features provided by Orcgen. It's the way-to-go if you're trying to use this package for the first time.
