I'm using laravel for my work for first time, and I need to create a PDF, I read about Dompdf, I setted up and it works fine if I put the html code in the: loadHtml(); but I can't load a view, this is the exception:
Undefined variable: invoice (View: C:\Users\Einar\Documents\PROYECTOS\Ecotoner\Actual\EcoToneresources\views\ordenes\invoice.blade.php)
I'm following this code:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
class PdfController extends Controller
{
//
public function invoice()
{
$data = $this->getData();
$date = date('Y-m-d');
$invoice = "2222";
$view =
\View::make('ordenes.invoice',compact('data','date','invoice'));
$pdf = \App::make('dompdf.wrapper');
$pdf->loadHTML($view);
return $pdf->stream('invoice');
//$pdf = \PDF::loadView('ordenes.invoice', $data);
//return $pdf->stream();
}
public function getData()
{
$data = [
'quantity' => '1' ,
'description' => 'some ramdom text',
'price' => '500',
'total' => '500'
];
return $data;
}
}
and this is my view:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<title>Example 2</title>
<!--{!! Html::style('assets/css/pdf.css') !!}-->
</head>
<body>
<main>
<div id="details" class="clearfix">
<div id="">
<h1>INVOICE</h1>
<div class="">Date of Invoice:</div>
</div>
</div>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<thead>
<tr>
<th class="no">#</th>
<th class="desc">DESCRIPTION</th>
<th class="unit">UNIT PRICE</th>
<th class="total">TOTAL</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="no">{{ $data['quantity'] }}</td>
<td class="desc">{{ $data['description'] }}</td>
<td class="unit">{{ $data['price'] }}</td>
<td class="total">{{ $data['total'] }} </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"></td>
<td >TOTAL</td>
<td>$6,500.00</td>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Hope someone can help me. Thanks
