Convert multiple html or xhtml files to pdfs using the power of [wkhtmltopdf][].
Note: starting from version `0.1.0` this gem will be release based on [Semantic Versioning][] convention.
### Installation
### Mandatory Requirement
- [wkhtmltopdf][] - please see [wkhtmltopdf installation][] for detail
### Dependencies
- wkhtmltopdf (Linux/OSX)
- OSX or Linux
## Usage
```sh
gem install html2pdf
```
For list of usage type
```sh
html2pdf
```
Which should give the following output
```
Usage:
html2pdf export [OPTIONS]
Options:
-b, [--base-dir=BASE_DIR] # Base directory
# Default: . (current directory)
-r, [--recursive], [--no-recursive] # Search for files recursively
# Default: true
-v, [--version], [--no-version] # Display version information
```
### Example Usage
- Convert all `xhtml` and `html` from `test/fixtures/samples` directory
recursively
```
html2pdf export -b test/fixtures/samples -r
```
Before the run
```
test/fixtures/samples/
├── demo1_xxx.rb.xhtml
├── demo2_xxx.rb.xhtml
└── sub_dir
├── demo3_xxx.rb.xhtml
└── demo4_xxx.rb.xhtml
```
After the above command is executed:
You should get the output `html2pdf-output.tar.gz`
which contain the pdf version of the input files above.
e.g.
```
├── demo1_xxx.rb.xhtml.pdf
├── demo2_xxx.rb.xhtml.pdf
└── sub_dir
├── demo3_xxx.rb.xhtml.pdf
└── demo4_xxx.rb.xhtml.pdf
```
### Usage Tips
This is my personal use case
- Use [vim_printer][] which export any source code to list of (x)html files in
a single tar.gzipped file.
- Use the output from [vim_printer][] as input to this program so that you get
the pdf version of it.
- Then combine the generated pdf files using [pdfs2pdf][] gem to produce one pdf file
