# Snappy

Snappy is a PHP5 library allowing thumbnail, snapshot or PDF generation from a url or a html page.
It uses the excellent webkit-based [wkhtmltopdf and wkhtmltoimage](http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/)
available on OSX, linux, windows.

You will have to download wkhtmltopdf `0.11.0 >= rc1` in order to use Snappy.

header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="file.pdf"');
echo $snappy->getOutput('http://www.github.com');

$snappy = new Pdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf');
header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="file.pdf"');
echo $snappy->getOutput(array('http://www.github.com','http://www.knplabs.com','http://www.php.net'));

// .. or simply save the PDF to a file

$snappy->generateFromHtml('<h1>Bill</h1><p>You owe me money, dude.</p>', '/tmp/bill-123.pdf');

## wkhtmltopdf binary as composer dependencies

If you want to download wkhtmltopdf and wkhtmltoimage with composer you add to `composer.json`:

```json
{
    "require": {
        "h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-i386": "0.12.x",
        "h4cc/wkhtmltoimage-i386": "0.12.x"
    }
}
```

or this if you are in 64 bit based system:

```json
{
    "require": {
        "h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-amd64": "0.12.x",
        "h4cc/wkhtmltoimage-amd64": "0.12.x"
    }
}
```

And then you can use it

```php
<?php

use Knp\Snappy\Pdf;

$myProjetDirectory = '/path/to/my/project';

$snappy = new Pdf($myProjectDirectory . '/vendor/h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-i386/bin/wkhtmltopdf-i386');

// or

$snappy = new Pdf($myProjectDirectory . '/vendor/h4cc/wkhtmltopdf-amd64/bin/wkhtmltopdf-amd64');
```
