py-pdf-generator's Introduction

Python Html to Pdf Converter with Mini Gui Support (Tkinter)

Setting up

Just install the packages from the requirements.py

To create a pdf, the code works in the following steps.
1. DJANGO - Initialize a template and load it as a Context which will be rendered. (DJANGO provides this functionality by setting up a light version of itself). So, the code will first configure Django Settings in configureDjangoSettings()

2. PDFKIT - On the rendered Context, variables are present which are filled by data provided by a dictionary. PDFKIT does this but it require a package called "WKHTMLtoPDF" which comes as an exe and can be installed to the "static_files" directory. An Attribute "config = wkhtmltopdf" is passed to PDFkit for the creation of pdf. Refer configureWkhtmltopdf() and the main html to pdf function is writeHtmlToPdf().

3. TKINTER - It only provides an interface here to provide a feel good feature.
