A headless version of pdfkit which makes use of xvfb-run

Project description

The PDFKit package makes use of wkhtmltopdf, which in turn needs an X Server to run. In Debian land, this generally requires xvfb-run wrapper.

The headless_pdfkit package tries to make the hotfix proposed by jakewins a bit easier to work with.

Installation

You can install headless_pdfkit by running:

pip install headless-pdfkit

Examples

Save a simple PDF from string.:

ret = headless_pdfkit.generate_pdf('<html></html>')
with open('output.pdf', 'wb') as w:
    w.write(ret)
