Laravel 5 TCPDF

A simple Laravel 5 service provider with some basic configuration for including the TCPDF library

Installation

#for laravel 5.1 use the 5.1 branch or version 0.0.4

The Laravel TCPDF service provider can be installed via composer by requiring the elibyy/laravel-tcpdf package in your project's composer.json. (The installation may take a while, because the package requires TCPDF. Sadly its .git folder is very heavy)

{
    "require": {
        "elibyy/laravel-tcpdf": "0.*"
    }
}

Next, add the service provider to config/app.php.

'providers' => [
    //..
    'Elibyy\TCPDF\ServiceProvider',
]

That's it! You're good to go.

Here is a little example:

use PDF;

PDF::SetTitle('Hello World');

PDF::AddPage();

PDF::Write(0, 'Hello World');

PDF::Output('hello_world.pdf');

For a list of all available function take a look at the TCPDF Documentation

Configuration

Laravel-TCPDF comes with some basic configuration. If you want to override the defaults, you can publish the config, like so:

php artisan vendor:publish

Now access config/laravel-tcpdf.phpto customize.
