jhovanic/tcpdf-bundle

A bundle to easily integrate TCPDF into Symfony2

JhovaniCTCPDFBundle

This bundle facilitates easy use of the TCPDF PDF generation library in Symfony2 applications., _(*1)

It's based on the [WhiteOctoberTCPDFBundle][1], <- check that out!, _(*2)

Installation

Step 1: Add this to your composer.json

"require" : {
        "jhovanic/tcpdf-bundle": "dev-master"
    }

Now run the composer update to download the bundle and library:, _(*3)

$ php composer.phar update

Step 2: Enable the bundle in the kernel

Add the bundle to the registerBundles() method in your kernel:, _(*4)

``` php <?php // app/AppKernel.php, <sub>(*5)</sub>

public function registerBundles() { $bundles = array( // ... new JhovaniC\TCPDFBundle\JhovanicTCPDFBundle(), ); }, <sub>(*6)</sub>

Using TCPDF
-----------

You can obtain the `jhovanic.tcpdf` service from the container,
and then create a new TCPDF object via the service:

``` php
$pdfObj = $container->get("jhovanic.tcpdf")->create();

since all controller classes have the service-container injected to them you can also write, <sub>(*7)</sub>

``` php $pdfObj = $this->container->get("jhovanic.tcpdf")->create();, <sub>(*8)</sub>

in your controller class.


From hereon in, you are using a TCPDF object to work with as normal.

Using a custom class
--------------------

If you want to use your own custom TCPDF-based class, you can use
the `class` parameter in your configuration eg in `config.yml`:

``` yaml
jhovanic_tcpdf:
    class: 'Acme\MyBundle\MyTCPDFClass'

The class must extend from the TCPDF class; an exception will be thrown if this is not the case., <sub>(*9)</sub>
