I am creating a project in nodejs with AngularJS and a MySQL database. I want is to display information from the MYSQL table in a PDF, similar to a report.
Can I render an .ejs with angular to pdf and the client only see the pdf with the information? Is there any way to do this?
You could use https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-pdf
This library generates a PDF file from an URL, you can also use it from your express application:
var ElectronPDF = require('electron-pdf')
var express = require('express')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var app = express()
app.use(bodyParser.json())
var exporter = new ElectronPDF()
exporter.on('charged', () => {
//Only start the express server once the exporter is ready
app.listen(port, hostname, function() {
console.log(`Export Server running at http://${hostname}:${port}`);
})
})
exporter.start()
