Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Fork of the original package with better error handling

node-red-contrib-pdfmake

This node is a simple wrapper around pdfmake, a JSON based solution to create PDFs from a given document definition.

pdfmake website

Install

node-red-contrib-pdfmake can be install using the node-red editor's pallete or by running npm in the console:

npm install node-red-contrib-pdfmake

Usage

There is just one node, and it expects an object in msg.payload with a valid docDefinition like:

{ 
	"content": [
		"First paragraph",
		"Another paragraph, this time a little bit longer to make sure, this line will be divided into at least two lines"
	]
	
}

The node returns a msg.payload holding the created PDF either as a Buffer or a base64 encoded string (as configured in the node).

Examples

Examples are provided using the default node-red way, i.e. use import in the editor menu and look for examples in the node-red-contrib-pdfmake package

#1 simple text PDF

This is the first example found on the pdfmake website.

#2 image & svg example PDF

This is a custom example showing how to read an image from file and integrate it into the PDF. It also shows a simple SVG to be included as well.
