## Laravel wkhtmltopdf installer

HTML to PDF converter. This package provides the 'wkhtmltopdf' binaries for linux x86/amd64 and intel-based Mac OS.

It is intended to be used in conjunction with packages like **knplabs/knp-snappy** for pure php, or **barryvdh/laravel-snappy** for Laravel.

The objective is to provide the binaries, without installing any package in the system. Because of that, this package could take a while to download and install.

The intention is to save time when you don't have access to the deployement scripts, nor system administrative tools.

## Requirements

* Ruby

## Installation

Add the following to composer.json:

```

"ferpetrelli/laravel_wkhtmltopdf": "dev-master"

```

For now, until it's completely tested and functional, use the repository version.

```

"repositories": [

        {

            "type":"vcs",

            "url":"https://github.com/ferpetrelli/laravel_wkhtmltopdf"

        }

    ]

```

## Usage

A new ruby script 'wkhtmltopdf-script' will be put at 'vendor/bin'.

This script automatically detects which architecture you're using and runs the correct binary.

**As an example, let's use the package laravel-snappy**

Just publish the package configuration file (read laravel-snappy readme), and add the binary path like the following:

```php

return array(

    'pdf' => array(

        'enabled' => true,

        'binary' => base_path('vendor/bin/wkhtmltopdf-script'),

        'timeout' => false,

        'options' => array(),

    )

);

```

Then when you use the package it will automatically runs the correct wkhtmltopdf version for your system.

## Contributions

The ruby script is almost a copy/paste of the one contained in the ruby gem: 'wkhtmltoimg_binary'
