In the e-commerce business, you always have need to print labels, invoices and build reports online.
We've built this tool at Adika to get rid of the cumbersome process of creating such reports and moving them
to the server side.
Download using go get
or via the releases page:
$> go get -u github.com/AdikaStyle/go-report-builder
- Build your template in pure HTML, for example:
- Use go's templating language to template the data of your report.
- Mark your printable area with the id tag
<div id="printable">...</div>
- Set the page size on the body tag
- Start go-report-builder with a reference to the folder containing your templates:
$> go-report-builder <TEMPLATES PATH>
- Use the API to export your rendered html report to HTML, PDF and PNG.
Example of html report:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {
width: 150mm;
height: 100mm;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="printable">
Hello {{ .Values.name }}
</div>
</body>
</html>
