Rendering salesforce lightning component into pdf (Generate PDF) - pdf

I am working on a lightning component and within the components layout I have to provide a button which can generate pdf of that lightning component . I found some blogs but still not sure about the actual solution for this . Please let me know if you guys have some sample implementation example for doing this .
Thanks !

If you want to save the entire window, you can just open the print window then save as PDF (if the business requirement allows):
print : function (component, event, helper) {
window.print();
}
If you want to print a portion of your lightning component, you might need to reconstruct the page to the pdf. Follow this:
var myWindow = window.open('','_blank', 'width=' + screen.availWidth + ',height=' + screen.avaliHeight);
myWindow.document.write('<html>HTML CODE HERE</html>');
myWindow.document.close();
myWindow.focus();
myWindow.print();

Create a square with additional data node data

I am pretty much a javascript noob, and very new to cytoscape (but i code in other languages)...
I am trying to use Cytoscape to graph out the servers available in my network. Creating a node per server and their relationship was straightforward actually.
I would like to add the possibility than when I click a node (let's say server12345) that it would open kind of a table with data associated with that server (servertype etc...).
Do you have any idea / examples / guidance on how I could:
add functionality on that click event of a specific node ?
how to create a 'details' table using cytoscope?
Thank you guys so much in advance!
(Ps: My first post on StackOverflow...)
Nice question.
Firstly, you can capture the click event of cytoscape.js like below
cy.nodes().on('click', function(e){
var clickedNode = e.target;
console.log(clickedNode.id());
});
or you can also use the tap event of cytoscape.js
cy.on('tap', 'node', function(evt){
var node = evt.target;
console.log( 'tapped ' + node.id() );
});
You can read events section of the documentation for more details
After you capture this event, I see to ways.
1-) Just modify an existing HTML element on the UI. For example in here you can see on the left side there are some other elements.
So you can write your code like
cy.on('tap', 'node', function(evt){
var node = evt.target;
document.getElementById('someOtherElementOnUI').innerHTML = JSON.stringfy(node.data());
});
This will simply modify some other UI element (HTML element) and changes its content to the data of the selected node.
2-) You can use some extensions like Cytoscape.js-popper and show data dynamically like a tooltip. You can check my answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/66813720/3209523

Drupal 7 - Print PDF and Panelizer

Hi guys ,
I'm currently working on a Drupal project which use the Panelizer module by overriding the default node display. The panel for this content type is made width a lot of rules and specifications in order to display some specific content (like views) according some fields.
Now I need to print in PDF the same content that is displayed by the panelizer module but in another display (in one column ), so I cloned the display I use and rearranged it to display what I want.Then I want to use this display width the print module but I didn't managed to do that.
Any idea how can I do that ?
I just can't use the default node render, because I would miss some informations dues to the specifications used in the panel, and I can't print the panelized content because it's not the same display.
I read this thread but how can I say to the print module to use the "print" display I cloned instead of the default one ?
Any suggestions or ideas will be appreciated or if you have another idea for doing that you're welcome :)
Thank you !
In your print pdf template you can load the node then create a view with the display and finally render it : drupal_render(node_view(node_load($node->nid), "name of your display")) ;
Another way is to alter node entity info, telling that 'print' view can be panelized, i.e.
/**
* Implements hook_entity_info_alter().
*/
function mymodule_entity_info_alter(&$entity_info) {
$entity_info['node']['view modes']['print']['custom settings'] = TRUE;
...
}
After that, you go to panelizer settings of your content type(s), and set whatever you want for the print view mode

Google plus share button, current URL instead of Specified URL?

If clarification is needed, please let me know. If it can't be done, please let me know this as well. I am desperately trying to figure this out still
I was following Google's Dev guide to the Share button at the following site:
https://developers.google.com/+/web/share/
and I can not seem to figure out how, if it's even possible, to use a custom icon AND use the current URL instead of having to specify a URL.
I found this section of their site that specifies an anchor tag address:
"https://plus.google.com/share?url={URL}"
This would allow me to use a custom icon (and the only way I can use a custom icon as far as I can tell) and a few other custom parameters as well. But it looks like this method requires a specified URL and, as far as I can tell, provides no method to dynamically create the link depending on the current page.
If I use the code generator at the top, it will use the current page, but it calls on a Google hosted Java Script and in addition, it is a hover link that pops up when I hover over the icon. And of course, I also can't use a custom icon with the generator either.
I've been Googling every search term I could think of and searching this site as well and I haven't been able to find anyone else asking this question as of yet. I figured after about 20-30 minutes of searching that I wasn't going to find my answer via searching, so i apologize if this has been answered.
Just some background on my experience to give an idea of where I sit: I have a decent grasp of the workings of HTML and CSS. Javascript, however, I understand very very basic theory and that's about it. I definitely intend to learn, however, as it will prove a very valuable skill.
Thank you very much!!
I think I know what needs to be done, but...I don't know how to do it (or if it would even work) :|
my share link needs to link to a script that looks at the current page's URL, and then takes that information, and creates a dynamic link from it that will take the user to the following link: https://plus.google.com/share?url={URL from query will be here}.
I think that might work...it sounds like it would. Any thoughts? If so, any simple scripts around that would do just this?
Double thanks!!
--I finally found something that works, but it uses Javascript and I don't fully understand it, just enough to tweak it. It took me forever to find this, but it works with Google Plus, Facebook, or Twitter! (and I'm sure it will work with any other website that supplies a Share Link that requires a specified URL)
Here it is, I'm still looking for a better solution, but this does exactly what I was looking for:
<a href="javascript:(
function(){
var w=480;var h=380;
var x=Number((window.screen.width-w)/2);
var y=Number((window.screen.height-h)/2);
window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'
&title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title),'','width='+w+',height='+h+',left='+x+',top='+y +',
scrollbars=no');
})();" style="background: url(/wp-content/themes/HTML5/images/googleplus.png) no-repeat scroll left center transparent;">
Share to Google+</a>
EDIT! After spending some months learning Javascript, I've built a solution that is much better than that which is provided below. I'll leave my original answer, however, I want to place this better solution at the top.
This solution should work on ANY social media platform that gives you a custom share URL (that is to say, a url that allows you to manually type in an address to share).
Here is how it all works (and if anyone has any suggestions or tweaks that have more experience with JS, please let me know).
I assign variables to the document.URL and document.titleproperties.
I write a named function (I called mine, socialShare) that is set to run via an anonymous function on the window.onloadevent.
The socialShare function assigns variables to the location of my social button's within the HTML. In my case, I used IDs to locate the elements. The purpose of these variables is purely for aesthetics (I use these variables to re-write the the HTML code dynamically, so that when you hover over the share button, it displays the correct URL for sharing the current page you are on)
var fbShare = document.getElementById("fbShare");
var gplusShare = document.getElementById("gplusShare");
twitterShare = document.getElementById("twitterShare");
I then write three separate anonymous functions, one for each social media platform. Each function has two statements. The functions work as follows: the first part is the variable assigned to the location of the HTML element with the ID fbShare. The second part tells it to run the function when that element is clicked; .onclick. The third part is the anonymous function that will run when that element is clicked. The first statement of this function will open a new window; window.open; and in that new window, it will open the URL that is specified by feeding the window.open method parameters. The parameters are as follows (URL,name,specs) where URL is the URL you want to share, name is optional and left blank as seen by the empty set of quotes, and finally specs is where you specify attributes of the window (IE: width and height). The first parameter, the URL: ("https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL, currentURL is the global variable that was assigned earlier and will place whatever the current documents URL is, in place of currentURL. The second parameter, the name: "", This is left blank, as it is optional. The third parameter, the specs: "height=368,width=600,left=100,top=100,menubar=0"); These are a comma-seperated list of items. In my case, I've specified a height, width, and the location of the window, as well as disabled the menubar. Finally, the second statement, return false; tells the browser NOT to follow the link inside the HTML code. If this was not specified, then the browswer would follow the URL in the HTML, AND open a new window. For more information on the window.open method, please see the link at the bottom of this new answer.
fbShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL,"","height=368,width=600,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
gplusShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://plus.google.com/share?url="+currentURL,"","height=550,width=525,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
twitterShare.onclick = function() {
window.open("https://twitter.com/share?url="+currentURL+"&text="+currentTitle,"","height=260,width=500,left=100,top=100,menubar=0");
return false;
}
And finally, I modify the HTML href elements of each social media button so that when the user hovers over the share buttons, they see the correct Share URL displayed in their browsers status bar. The first part of this statement grabs the element id, fbShare and the second part tells it to set an attribute, .setAttribute. Then we pass in the attribute name that we want to change, ("href", in this case, and then we pass in what we would like the new attribute value to be, "http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL); currentURL is the same here, as earlier. It is the variable that holds the value for whatever the current page's URL is.
fbShare.setAttribute("href","http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u="+currentURL);
gplusShare.setAttribute("href","https://plus.google.com/share?url="+currentURL);
twitterShare.setAttribute("href","https://twitter.com/share?url="+currentURL+"&text="+currentTitle);
That's about all there is to it! I hope I wrote this well and I hope it is relatively easy to follow. If any pros out there have any suggestions, please feel free to toss in and give your advice! :)

OLD ANSWER: I figured I'd add this as an answer. It does the trick and solves the exact problem that I had. The URL after 'window.open' would be the social media's Share Link (in the case of the example, it's google plus' Share Link. There are a few variables that can be either modified or removed. Anyone that's good with scripting could probably create a PHP version (which I would LOVE) or modify it to better suite their needs. At any rate, I hope this will help someone out!

Share to Google+</a>
Native Window Open function its not a good idea, browsers like Mozilla and Chrome block pop up. I think its better use a plugin to open a new windows with the share url, like jquery popup plugin. Work very fine for me and browser cant block it.
Copy an paste into a new js file like original name: 'jquery.popup.js'
jQuery.fn.popup = function(options) {
var defaults = {
width: screen.width/2,
height: screen.height/2,
titlebar: false,
status: false,
resizable: true,
toolbar: false,
scrollbars: true,
menubar: false
};
var options = jQuery.extend(defaults, options);
Boolean.prototype.setProperty = function() {
if (this == true) { return "yes"; } else { return "no"; }
};
jQuery(this).click( function() {
var target = this.target;
var href = this.href;
var posY = (parseInt(screen.height/2)) - (parseInt(options.height/2));
var posX = (parseInt(screen.width/2)) - (parseInt(options.width/2));
var win = window.open(href, target, 'titlebar=' + options.titlebar.setProperty() + ', screenX='+ posX +', screenY='+ posY +', left='+ posX +', top='+ posY +', status=' + options.status.setProperty() + ', resizable=' + options.resizable.setProperty() + ', toolbar=' + options.toolbar.setProperty() + ', scrollbars=' + options.scrollbars.setProperty() + ', menubar=' + options.menubar.setProperty() + ', width='+ options.width +', height='+ options.height);
win.focus();
return false;
});
return this;
};
USAGE:
<script src="jquery.last.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.popup.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(function(){
//simple load
jQuery(".popupLink").popup({ width: 640, height: 480 });
});
</script>
<a class='popupLink' href="https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<?php echo URL;?>">Share Facebook</a>
ALSO YOU CAN PASS OPTIONS LIKE THE PLUGIN EXAMPLE OPTIONS
<script>
jQuery(".popupLink").popup({ width: 640, height: 480, resizable: false, menubar: true });
</script>
The author website dont exist any more. This are the information that comes with the plugin comments
/*

You can also use PHP to resize the window but here is the PHP version... Have fun :)

How to use PDDestination class in PDFbox?

How to use PDDestination class in PDFbox ?
whether getPagenumber() method will return the current page number
can any one share u r views
Thanks
The usage of PDDestination or PDAction is very similar to the one of PdfDestination or PdfAction of iText.
So you may want to search iText examples firstly.
Specifically on PDFBox,
e.g.
the following makes the first open page to page 5.
PDDestination dest = new PDPageDestination();
// When you open this PDF, you will see page 5.
dest.setPageNumber(4)
PDActionGoTo action = new PDActionGoTo();
action.setDestination(dest);
document.getDocumentCatalog().setOpenAction(action);

Need a Hyperlink control to do several things at once

On my site I have a DataList full of image thumbnails. The thumbnails are HyperLink controls that, when clicked, offer an enlarged view of the source image (stored in my database).
My client wants a facebook Like button on each image and I was hoping to put that in the lightbox window that appears when you click on a thumbnail.
My challenge here is that to generate the info for the Like, I need to create meta tags and each image should, preferably, create it's own meta tags on the fly.
What I can't figure out is how to make the HyperLink click open the lightbox AND create the meta tags at the same time.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
For a live view of the site, go to http://www.dossier.co.za
The way that we approach similar problems is to hook the onclick event of the href in javascript.
Depending on exactly what you need to do, you can even prevent the standard browser behavior for the hyperlink from executing by returning false from the javascript method.
And in some cases, we just use the hyperlink for "show" by setting the href to "#".
Here is an example that combines all of these concepts:
File Name
In this case, the specified javascript is executed, there is no real hyperlink, and the browser doesn't try to navigate to the specified URL because we return false in the javascript.
Add a Classname to the opening table tag like class="tbl_images" so we can use JQuery to access it. Capture the click on the td and pickup the id of the item. Pass that id to your code as required to generate your meta tags. In the following when the user clicks on an anchor in a td, a function will run.
I use this all the time to access attributes in the td so i can run a function. You could use something like this to pickup values from your image/anchor and create something...
$("#tbl_images > tbody > tr ").each(function () {
//get the id of the tr (if required)
var id = $(this).attr("id");
var ImageTitle = $(this).find("img.Image_Class_Name").attr("title");
//on click of anchor with classname of lighthouse run function,
//passing in our id or other data in the row to our function
$(this).find("td: > a.lighthouse").click(function () {
//update script for this record
MyFunction(id,ImageTitle);
});
});
