Types of Contributions
======================

Report Bugs
-----------

Report bugs at https://github.com/WilliamOtieno/dj-easy-pdf/issues.

If you are reporting a bug, please include:

* Your operating system name and version.
* Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
* Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.

Fix Bugs
--------

Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug"

Implement Features
------------------

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature"
is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation
-------------------

dj-easy-pdf could always use more documentation, whether as part of the
official dj-easy-pdf docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts,
articles, and such.

Submit Feedback
---------------

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/WilliamOtieno/dj-easy-pdf/issues.

If you are proposing a feature:

* Explain in detail how it would work.
* Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
* Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions
are welcome :)

Get Started!
============

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `dj-easy-pdf` for local development.

1. Fork the `dj-easy-pdf` repo on GitHub.
2. Clone your fork locally::

$ git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/django-easy-pdf.git

3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development::

$ mkvirtualenv django-easy-pdf
$ cd django-easy-pdf/
$ python setup.py develop

4. Create a branch for local development::

$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

Now you can make your changes locally.

5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8::

$ flake8 easy_pdf

To get flake8, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub::

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
$ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines
=======================

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

1. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
feature to the list in README.rst.
2. The pull request should work for Python 3.4+ plus (if there are compatible
3rd party packages available).

- Give me time to refine this. I forked this from somewhere else and modified it because it didn't support my version of django. (Django 4.0)
- Refer to the docs in https://django-easy-pdf.readthedocs.io/en/v0.2.0-dev1/
- If you're on django3.2 or django 4 then you have nothing to worry about so run ``pip install dj-easy-pdf``

Developed by `William Otieno <https://github.com/WilliamOtieno/>`_.


Overview
--------

This app makes rendering PDF files in Django really easy.
It can be used to create invoices, bills and other documents
from simple HTML markup and CSS styles. You can even embed images
and use custom fonts.

The library provides both Class-Based View that is almost a drop-in
replacement for Django's ``TemplateView`` as well as helper functions
to render PDFs in the backend outside the request scope
(i.e. using Celery workers).


Quickstart
----------

1. Include ``dj-easy-pdf``, ``xhtml2pdf`` in your ``requirements.txt`` file.
If you are on Python 3 you need to install the latest version of Reportlab and the beta version of xhtml2pdf::

$ pip install xhtml2pdf

2. Add ``easy_pdf`` to ``INSTALLED_APPS``.

3. Create HTML template for PDF document and add a view that will render it:

.. code-block:: css+django

{% extends "easy_pdf/base.html" %}

{% block content %}
<div id="content">
<h1>Hi there!</h1>
</div>
{% endblock %}

.. code-block:: python
from easy_pdf.views import PDFTemplateView
class HelloPDFView(PDFTemplateView):
template_name = 'hello.html'
4. You can also use a mixin to output PDF from Django generic views:

.. code-block:: python
class PDFUserDetailView(PDFTemplateResponseMixin, DetailView):
model = get_user_model()
template_name = 'user_detail.html'
