vrok / tex-wrapper example snippets

// autogenerate filename for TeX file in temp dir
$wrapper = new TexWrapper\Wrapper();

// use existing TeX or store in custom path.
// the resulting PDF will have the same filename with ".pdf" appended
$wrapper = new TexWrapper\Wrapper('/my/path/texfile');

// generate the TeX file
$texContent = '\documentclass{article}
        \begin{document}
        \title{Introduction to \LaTeX{}}
        \author{Author Name}
        \maketitle
        \section{Introduction}
        Here is the text of your introduction.
        \end{document}';
$wrapper->saveTex($texContent);

// to customize log output or apply texfot to filter unnecessary messages
$wrapper->setCommand('texfot '.$wrapper->getCommand().' 2>&1');

// to use lualatex instead of pdflatex
$cmd = 'lualatex --file-line-error '
        .' --interaction=nonstopmode --output-directory=%dir% %file%';
$wrapper->setCommand($cmd);

// build PDF file in the same path where the TeX file lives
$result = $wrapper->buildPdf();
if ($result) {
    echo "PDF file ".$wrapper->getPdfFile()." was created!";
} else {
    echo "PDF file wasn't generated!";
}

// even when the PDF was generated there could be errors and the latex engine
// or the post-processing command exited with an error code > 0
// getErrors() returns an array, possible indexes are: engine, missingFonts,
// postProcessor
var_dump($wrapper->getErrors());

// pdflatex always generates output, some warnings like missing fonts do not
// generate errors, the output is always saved:
var_dump($wrapper->getLog()); // returns string

// if you don't need the TeX file anymore
// it is automatically deleted on Wrapper destruction if no initial filename
// was set
$wrapper->deleteTex();

// Example: use ghostscript (debian package: ghostscript) to minimize PDF file
// size. Test first: very simple documents can get larger through this!
