FIX 459: react-to-print now ensures that a DOCTYPE is set on the print iframe. Without this some browsers could render the print iframe in quirks mode, possibly changing the output
CHORE: Removed some debugging statements that made it into a previous production build
CHORE: Updated all dependencies
DOCS: Added a section with a link to a fully-working Electron example

2.14.3

published 2.14.3 • 3 years ago

Changelog

FIX 439: react-to-print now waits for video elements to load before printing. While this should work in most cases, we highly recommend setting the poster attribute of the video, which allows specifying an image to be a placeholder for the video until the video loads.
CHORE: cleaned up the examples code a bit, including adding tests for video elements
CHORE: all devDependencies have been upgraded to their latest and greatest

Happy new years!

2.14.2

published 2.14.2 • 3 years ago

Changelog

FIX: As seen in 441 when using the useReactToPrint hook along with TypeScript and strict checking the user is currently required to ensure that the return of useReactToPrint isn't undefined, since that is what is returned if the user is using a version of React that does not support hooks. To remove the need for this check useReactToPrint will now return a function that throws an error if the version of React does not support hooks.

FIX 429: Attempting to access the contents of a cross-origin stylesheet is forbidden by scripts, and attempting to do so would cause react-to-print to crash. Upstream work in the browsers is required to find a proper solution to this, read more in the issue. A try/catch has been added around the offending code, along with a warning message with tips on how to resolve. Thanks @JoshuaKGoldberg for lots of debugging help
FIX 432: TypeScript 4.4 shipped with FontFace support in its lib definitions which caused react-to-print to fail to build locally on versions of TypeScript >= 4.4 since our FontFace definitions clashed with those now in TypeScript. This has been resolved, thanks @oxygen-xx
DOCS 422: The README was updated to properly reflect that functional components can be used so long as they are wrapped with React.forwardRef
DOCS 430: A typo was fixed, thanks @hsusanoo

published 2.14.0 • 3 years ago

Changelog

FIX 391: Setting documentTitle will now properly set the filename when printing as a PDF in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari
FIX: a rare (no reported events) edge case could cause printing to hang if an image failed to load and error logging was not enabled. This has been fixed
FEATURE: the UI for running the examples has been massively improved. Try them out! We will be porting this to our official CodeSandbox example soon.
CHORE: changed an error message saying only class based components are allowed to be printed to clarify that functional components wrapped in React.forwardRef can be printed as well
CHORE: refactored logging code to be DRYer and simpler to use
CHORE: all devDependencies have been upgraded to their latest and greatest
DOCS: major improvements to the README, including making some examples more concise, adding information about using functional components to print, adding some new pitfalls, and adding information about known issues when printing in mobile WebViews (see #384 for more)
