FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package ypdf
Y-PDF
A Laravel-ready package that uses a headless Chromium instance to render full HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, Tailwind, and jQuery experiences into pixel-perfect PDFs. Stop fighting traditional PHP PDF libraries that ignore styles — render the same markup your frontend already produces.
Highlights
- Uses chrome-php/chrome, so anything Chromium can paint (Vue, React, Livewire, Blade + Tailwind, etc.) will appear in the PDF.
- Simple API:
YPdf::renderFromView()andYPdf::renderFromHtml()return binary data or save directly to disk. - Configurable viewport, margins, background printing, sandbox flags, and custom wait strategies before capturing the PDF.
- Ships with a publishable config file so each project can point to its own Chromium binary, temp directory, and timeouts.
- Designed to live inside its own repository — drop this folder into a separate git repo, push to GitHub, and submit to Packagist. Afterwards, require it in any Laravel app with Composer.
Package Structure
Installation (after publishing to Packagist)
Want to write your own driver or call a remote rendering API instead? Set YPDF_DRIVER
to a custom driver name and bind an implementation of YPdf\Contracts\PdfEngine in a service
provider—no Chromium dependency required.
Ensure Chromium is installed on the server, or point HEADLESS_PDF_CHROME_BINARY to a bundled binary. Example .env entries:
Usage
Need to render an authenticated page? Generate a signed URL and call YPdf::renderFromUrl($url).
Roadmap
- Additional drivers (Playwright, remote rendering service)
- Queued rendering + retry helpers
- HTML pre-processors for asset inlining and critical CSS extraction
Contributions welcome once the package is in its own repository!
