barcode_pdf_generator

A small library that generates a PDF of barcodes.

Use

Setup of CSV File

The generator requires a csv file that must be formatted according to RFC 4180. To make sure everything works properly be sure:

• Values are separated by commas.
• All records end with a CRLF line break.
• There are no headings on the fields (I hope the change this in the future).

For best results, I recommend using Google Sheets to make csv files. Excel CSVs generate a strange symbol between names. Hopefully I can fix this soon.

Values should be:

1. Last Name
2. First Name
3. Pin or the numeric value of the barcode. If any alphanumeric values are enterred, only numerals will be used.

Generate Barcodes from a CSV File

1. Use the ReadCsv(filepath) method with the absolute path to the csv file to return an array of Students that will be needed for step 2.

2. Run GeneratePdf(pdfPath, filename, heading, []Student) using the full destination path, filename, and the []Students from step 1.
