In your CakePHP top level folder (the one that has composer.json, src/, vendors/, config/, webroot/) run:
1 | composer require tecnickcom/tcpdf |
You should now have vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf
Now in a controller src/Controller/<ControllerName>Controller.php create an action:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | public function pdfView($schedule_id = null){ $this->viewBuilder()->layout('ajax'); $this->set('title', 'My Great Title'); $this->set('file_name', '2016-06' . '_June_CLM.pdf'); $this->response->type('pdf');} |
Then create a view in src/Template/<ControllerName>/pdf_view.ctp
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 | class xtcpdf extends TCPDF {}$pdf = new xtcpdf(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, true, 'UTF-8', false);// use the examples at http://tcpdf.org to create a pdf$pdf->Output($file_name, 'I'); |
Great, Thanks!
