react-native-static-html-to-pdf

Convert static html file to pdf

This library is inspired by react-native-html-to-pdf. It takes a static html file as parameter (whereas react-native-html-to-pdf takes a string as argument).

It takes a screenshot of the page before redirection to target. So you need to add in your html file the following script at the end of the execution of your js

window.location.href = 'http://finishload.com';

The returned value is the path of the generated pdf file

Installation

npm install @archireport/react-native-static-html-to-pdf

Usage

import { generatePdf } from '@archireport/react-native-static-html-to-pdf';

// ...

const pathOfGeneratedPdf = await generatePdf({
  path: `${DocumentDirectoryPath}/public/index.html`,
  target: 'http://finishload.com',
  documentName: 'file.pdf',
  width: 612,
  height: 792,
});

where

param	description	example
