pallymore / wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge Goto Github PK

First of all I tried it with wktmltopdf-heroku gem it didn't work then i continued to use this gem with heroku 18 but it showed the below error:

From the error it seems that i need to install the libpng12 package in heroku 18 since it doesn't have support for that.
Can anyone help me with this ...

Also I made this gem to make my charts works in development and I am afraid I can't choose any other gems.

wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge doesn't seem to have a binary that works with Alpine Linux.

Example Dockerfile:

FROM ruby:2.3-alpine

RUN gem install wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge
RUN wkhtmltopdf

Output:

This works with Debian. Example Dockerfile:

RUN gem install wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge
RUN wkhtmltopdf

You need to specify at least one input file, and exactly one output file

The Alpine wkhtmltopdf package is not qt-patched. There is a qt-patch wkhtmltopdf for alpine docker image, though.

Please add a composer file and submit it to packagegist. Aside from the ruby stuff, the binaries don't require ruby and are perfectly usable. There are other wkhtmltopdf composer packages out there but they are either outdated or don't include the darwin binary.

Having one package that includes them all would be great for CI, despite the size.

Issue description

The next problem ocurred when I was trying to create a pdf:
"The wkhtmltopdf executable in the wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge gem is being loaded, but it's also present in other gems (wkhtmltopdf-binary) If you meant to run the executable for another gem, make sure you use a project specific binstub (bundle binstub <gem_name>)"

Are both wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge and wkhtmltopdf-binary gems necessary?

I switched over from wkhtmltopdf-binary to this gem in order to render images properly, and that works. However, it is rendering empty boxes in certain parts of my HTML. If I switch back the Gemfile to wkhtmltopdf-binary, the HTML renders but not the images. Any ideas / suggestions??? Thanks!

Hello,
wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge v 0.12.2.1

First of all, thank you for creating this; the original wkhtmltopdf started having major problems with our newer OS and image encryption!

I have created a brochure generation process utilizing wkhtmltopdf; we were producing excellent pdfs appropriately sized at 300 DPI, 12.75" by 10.25" with a resolution of 3825px by 3075px.

However, upon upgrading to binary-edge, the DPI parameter no longer triggers. We consistently get 100 DPI instead, despite using the same code. Notably, all of the other options (margin, page_height, page_width, etc.) all work with no issue.

pdf = WickedPdf.new.pdf_from_string(render_to_string('api/v1/to_pdf/cover.html.haml',
layout: 'cover_bio.pdf.html'
),
orientation: "Landscape",
page_height: "12.75in",
page_width: "10.25in",
dpi: "300",
low_quality: false,
encoding: "UTF-8",
margin: {
top: 0,
bottom: 0,
left: 0,
right: 0,
}
)
name = "cover_#{user_id}.pdf"
save_path = Rails.root.join('public',name)
File.open(save_path, 'wb') do |file|
file << pdf
end

If you have any suggestions or support, I would be very grateful! Our printer requires the PDF to be in 300 DPI, no less!

After updating to the latest version of the gem, I'm getting the following error message whenever I try and use wkhtlmtopdf:

/usr/local/bundle/gems/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge-0.12.5.0/libexec/wkhtmltopdf-linux-amd64: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any idea what we can do to resolve this? Can't seem to manually install the dependency via apt-get.

OS version : Debian 10 (buster)
Ruby version: 2.6
Rails version: 6
wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge 0.12.5.1 - October 29, 2019

At first I've tried with the default version (wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge 0.12.2.1), it required very old version of shared libraries, so I switched to the latest version (wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge 0.12.5.1), but it turned out that it's also not matching:
OS - installed versions are libssl.so.1.1, libcrypto.so.1.1
I can figure out a workaround but it's not a solution for production.
Not sure but I think you may just change the dependency names to libssl.so and like so for all other possible dependencies.
Or give me some elegant solution. Gem update would be greater!
Thanks in advance. 😎

When on Alpine Linux the following error accures:

Traceback (most recent call last):
	1: from ./wkhtmltopdf:15:in `<main>'
./wkhtmltopdf:15:in `exec': No such file or directory - /usr/local/bundle/gems/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge-0.12.5.0/libexec/wkhtmltopdf-linux-amd64 (Errno::ENOENT)

The included binary is there but it's not compatible with alpine linux.

I see in bin/wkhtmltopdf that the case statement will match RUBY_PLATFORM with:
/64.*linux/

In this case, alpine linux version has: x86_64-linux-musl its platform which will match up with the regex But fail without any specific error about the platform not being the right one!

This is confusing and hard to debug.

I noticed you said:
This repo is meant for common development uses (e.g. mac, ubuntu) - if I include a binary for every system then gem would be massive... (#12 (comment))

It's understandable but then again Alpine Linux is a very common development use case these days. I think a lot of ppl depending on this gem would appreciate the support for it, especially when trying to use lightweight docker images.

I'll see if I can make a fork and PR for it.

Maybe at least wrapping the binary execution call in a rescue block wouldn't hurt?

# bin/wkhtmltopdf
. . .
begin
  exec "#{cmd} #{args.join(' ')}"
rescue Errno::ENOENT => e  
  raise "Not found or wkhtmltopdf binaries might be incompatible with the os version \n #{e}"
end

Hi, i try to update gem, but I have an error:
Could not find gem 'wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge (~> 0.12.5.0)' in any of the gem sources listed in your Gemfile.

My source is http://rubygems.org. On rubygems last version is 0.12.5.0.pre.alpha0, but on this version i have an error ' /bundle/gems/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge-0.12.5.0.pre.alpha0/libexec/wkhtmltopdf-linux-amd64: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'

When i write
gem 'wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge', git: 'https://github.com/pallymore/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge.git'
and run bundle nothing happened, just fetching.

bundle/ruby/2.4.0/gems/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge-0.12.5.0/libexec/wkhtmltopdf-linux-amd64: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

System: Ubuntu 18.04
Rails: 5.1.7
Ruby: 2.4.0
wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge-0.12.5.0

All of these gems die at some point via maintainer abandonment it would be great if there was a wonder one available via rubygems.

In my html i have used an image from amazon s3 server (using the absolute path) which in turns displays no image. But if i use address of a known absolute address with http it works like a charm

Just wanted to say big thank you! Previous wkhtmltopdf-binary gem didn't work and this appears to work very well. :)

How to use it in production?

https://github.com/pallymore/wkhtmltopdf-binary-edge#recommended-for-development--testing-only

0.12.5 is out :)
https://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html

Is it possible to update the gem to this version ?

It solves a lot of issues with Mac OS :)

thanks !
