RE: Very New to Codeigniter need help - Xaruf - 07-29-2020
I don't know if the problem is still relevant.
First you have to download the domPdf folder in the libraries folder. Then you have to create a php class at the root of the libraries folder. Then you have to create a view that will receive the data to display in pdf. Then you create a function in the controller of your choice in which you call the model which will allow you to fetch your data in bdd to then transmit them to your view.
I put the minimum code for it to work.
To display the images in the view, you must not use the base_url () function of the url helper but use the php variable $ _SERVER ['DOCUMENT_ROOT']
This code works fine.
I am French so sorry if my English is not correct
/**
* your personal class which will instantiate the dompdf library
*/
<?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
require 'dompdf/autoload.inc.php';
use Dompdf\Dompdf;
class Pdf extends Dompdf
{
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$dompdf = new Dompdf();
}
}
/**
* your fonction in the ctrl
*/
public function showBill($billID, $toDown)
{
$billDatas = $this->bills_model->get($billID);
$datas = array(
'infos' => "PDF bill creation",
'title' => "Bill - ".$this->config->item('appName'),
'description' => "PDF bill creation",
'keywords' => "Facture",
'billDatas' => $billDatas
);
// load your view in variable
$pageHTML = $this->load->view('billpdf', $datas, true);
$fileName = $billDatas['beneficiaryDetails']['beneficiaryName']."-";
$fileName = $fileName.$billDatas['beneficiaryDetails']['beneficiarySurname']."_";
$fileName = $fileName.$billDatas['billInfos']['billRef']."_";
$fileName = $fileName.$billDatas['billInfos']['billPeriod'];
// load the dompdf library through your class
$this->load->library('pdf');
// load the view with dompdf
$this->pdf->loadHtml($pageHTML);
// I put in comments what is optional
// $customPaper = array(0,0,570,570);
// $this->pdf->set_paper($customPaper);
// $this->pdf->setPaper('A4','portrait');//landscape
$this->pdf->render();
// il $toDown = 1 -> download file, if = 0 show in navigator
$this->pdf->stream($fileName, array('Attachment' => $toDown));
}
