Step 1: Download HiddenEntityTypeBundle using composer
$ composer require sasedev/mpdf-bundle
Composer will install the bundle to your project's vendor directory.
Enable the bundle in the config if flex it did´nt do it for you:
<?php
// config/bundles.php
return [
// ...
Sasedev\MpdfBundle\SasedevMpdfBundle::class => ['all' => true],
// ...
];
You can use the factory in your controllers just like this:
<?php
use Sasedev\MpdfBundle\Factory\MpdfFactory;
// ...
public function pdf($id, Request $request, MpdfFactory $MpdfFactory) {
// ...
$mPdf = $MpdfFactory->createMpdfObject([
'mode' => 'utf-8',
'format' => 'A4',
'margin_header' => 5,
'margin_footer' => 5,
'orientation' => 'P'
]);
$mPdf->SetTopMargin("50");
$mPdf->SetHTMLHeader($this->renderView('twigfolder/pdf/pdf_header.html.twig', $TwigVars));
$mPdf->SetFooter($this->renderView('twigfolder/pdf/pdf_footer.html.twig', $TwigVars));
$mPdf->WriteHTML($this->renderView('twigfolder/pdf/pdf_content.html.twig', $TwigVars));
return $MpdfFactory->createDownloadResponse($mPdf, "file.pdf");
}
// ...
