Create PDF files using React

react-pdf

React renderer for creating PDF files on the browser, mobile and server

This project is still in development, so please do not use react-pdf on production yet. First release soon!

How it works

import React from 'react';
import { Page, Text, View, Document, StyleSheet } from '@react-pdf/core';

// Create Document Component
const MyDocument = () => (
  <Document>
    <Page size="A4" style={styles.page}>
      <View style={styles.section}>
        <Text>Section #1</Text>
      </View>
      <View style={styles.section}>
        <Text>Section #2</Text>
      </View>
    </Page>
  </Document>
);

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  page: {
    flexDirection: 'row',
    backgroundColor: '#E4E4E4'
  },
  section: {
    margin: 10,
    padding: 10,
    flexGrow: 1
  }
});

Render in DOM

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';

const App = () => (
  <div>
    <MyDocument />
  </div>
);

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));

Save in a file

import ReactPDF from '@react-pdf/node';

ReactPDF.render(<MyDocument />, `${__dirname}/example.pdf`);

Render in mobile
