C#, Java and Ruby Code Samples for Creating PDF File from HTML in Cloud

[johansonkatherine]

This tutorial shows how developers can create PDF file from HTML in Cloud using Aspose.Pdf for Cloud API in their applications. You can use this REST API with any language: .NET, Java, PHP, Ruby, Rails, Python, jQuery and many more.


[C# Code Sample]

stringstrURI = "http://api.aspose.com/v1.1/pdf/outPdfFile.pdf?templateFile=input.html&templateType=html";
stringsignedURI = Sign(strURI);
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(ProcessCommand(signedURI, "PUT"));
//further process JSON response
stringstrJSON = reader.ReadToEnd();
//Parse the json string to JObject
JObjectparsedJSON = JObject.Parse(strJSON);
BaseResponse stream = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<BaseResponse>(parsedJSON.ToString());
if (stream.Code == "200" &&stream.Status == "OK")
Console.WriteLine("Empty PDF file has been created successfully");

//Here is the BaseResponse class
public class BaseResponse
{
publicBaseResponse() { }
	public string Code { get; set; }
	public string Status { get; set; }
}

[Java Code Sample]

//build uri to create empty pdf
    String strURI = "http://api.aspose.com/v1.1/pdf/outPdfFile.pdf?templateFile=input.html&templateType=html";
    String signedURI = Sign(strURI);
InputStreamresponseStream = ProcessCommand(signedURI, "PUT");
    String strJSON = StreamToString(responseStream);
Gsongson = new Gson();
    //Parse the json string to JObject and Deserializes the JSON to a object.
BaseResponsebaseResponse = gson.fromJson(strJSON,BaseResponse.class);
if (baseResponse.getCode().equals("200") &&baseResponse.getStatus().equals("OK"))
System.out.println("Empty PDF file has been created successfully");

//Here is the BaseResponse class
public class BaseResponse {
	publicBaseResponse() { }
	private String Code;
	private String Status;
	public String getCode(){return Code;}
	public String getStatus(){return Status;}
	public void  setCode(String temCode){ Code=temCode;}
	public void setStatus(String temStatus){ Status=temStatus;}
}

[Ruby Code Sample]

app_sid = '77******-1***-4***-a***-8***********'
app_key = '89******************************'
Aspose::Cloud::Common::AsposeApp.new(app_sid, app_key)

#build URI to create PDF from HTML
str_uri = 'http://api.aspose.com/v1.1/pdf/outPdfFile.pdf?templateFile=HtmlExample1.html&templateType=html'

#sign URI
signed_uri = Aspose::Cloud::Common::Utils.sign(str_uri)
RestClient.put(signed_uri, '', {:accept=>'application/json'})

#build URI to download output file
str_uri = 'http://api.aspose.com/v1.1/storage/file/outPdfFile.pdf'

#sign URI
signed_uri = Aspose::Cloud::Common::Utils.sign(str_uri)
response_stream = RestClient.get(signed_uri, :accept => 'application/json')
Aspose::Cloud::Common::Utils.save_file(response_stream, "outPdfFile.pdf")
p 'done'

hi folks,

I use the following code snippet to create PDF file from HTML ,check

 static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            HtmlConverter.Convert("http://www.wikipedia.org/", "HTMLtoPDF.pdf",
                
                //enable javascript
                true,

                //load timeout
                100 * 1000,

                //page size
                new SizeF(612, 792),

                //page margins
                new PdfMargins(0, 0));
            System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("HTMLtoPDF.pdf");
        }

This scenario is based on C# PDF component , which support to convert the HTML page with rich elements, such as HTTPS, CSS3, HTML5, JavaScript to PDF file.
