# 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 0.10.0 >= rc2 in order to use Snappy. ## Usage ```php setBinary('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf'); // Display the resulting image in the browser // by setting the Content-type header to jpg $snappy = new Pdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf'); header('Content-Type: application/pdf'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="file.pdf"'); echo $snappy->getOutput('http://www.github.com'); // .. or simply save the PDF to a file $snappy = new Pdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf'); $snappy->generateFromHtml('
You owe me money, dude.
', '/tmp/bill-123.pdf'); // Pass options to snappy // Type wkhtmltopdf -H to see the list of options $snappy = new Pdf('/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf'); $snappy->setOption('disable-javascript', true); $snappy->setOption('no-background', true); $snappy->setOption('allow', array('/path1', '/path2')); $snappy->setOption('cookie', array('key' => 'value', 'key2' => 'value2')); ``` ## Credits Snappy has been originally developed by the [KnpLabs](http://knplabs.com) team.
