python 网页生成pdf_方法：python-pdfkit将网页（由JS生成）转换为PDF

views.py

def download_as_pdf(request):

# some stuff/function call to get updated(with data and JS) template and render it

return render(request, temp)

def download(request):

import pdfkit

pdfkit.from_url('/download/', 'out.pdf', options={'ignore-load-errors': None})

return HttpResponse('DONE')

urls.py

url(r'^download/', views.download_as_pdf, name="download_pdf")

I want to print all content(some graphs (JS generated - flotcharts)) of /download/ url in pdf. If I put these two lines

import pdfkit

pdfkit.from_url('/download/', 'out.pdf', options={'ignore-load-errors': None})

in download_as_pdf view it prints nothing in pdf (pdf gets download though but empty)

(I think because template rendering happening after these statements thats why ??)

how should I proceed to prit graph in pdf (can I solve this by threading? how?) or any other approach

解决方案

This could be because pdf is rendered before the entire javascript is loaded. If you introduce a javascript delay it will work.

options = {

'javascript-delay':'5000'

}
