Cactoos PDF is a collection of object-oriented Java classes to build a PDF document.
Motivation. We are not happy with current Java PDF solutions because:
-
Their code aren't truly object-oriented, i.e. they aren't obey these design principles
-
Their license code aren't really free to do anything, like MIT or BSD license
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.fabriciofx</groupId>
<artifactId>cactoos-pdf</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</dependency>Java version required: 1.8+.
WARNING: Cactoos PDF is in a VERY early development stage. So the API can change at any moment.
Here an example how to build a Hello World PDF file using our API:
final File file = new File("HelloWorld.pdf");
final Id id = new Serial();
Files.write(
file.toPath(),
new Document(
id,
new DefaultPages(
id,
new DefaultPage(
id,
new Contents(
new Text(
id,
new TimesRoman(id, 18),
0,
500,
new TextOf("Hello World")
)
)
)
)
).asBytes()
);More examples can be found here.
