Example scripts
When I used FPDF for PHP (some years ago)I really liked the scripts section of the homepage since it was a good resource for extending FPDF without having to wait for a new release or to cover edge cases.
I have ported some of the original scripts 1:1 to python -> https://github.com/digidigital/Extensions-and-Scripts-for-pyFPDF-fpdf2
I see you guys are busy implementing a lot of those features in fpdf2 directly. If someone wants to pick up an idea and use the ported scripts as rough starting point - go ahead !
Awesome @digidigital !
I've started by adding a reference to your repo in the docs: https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/#related
I think many features could indeed be ported to fpdf2 so that they become "native".
We could start by opening 2-3 dedicated issues to port a few first features, so that each one can be discussed individually, with a specific PR implementing it. What do you think @digidigital ? I'd suggest to start with:
-
rect(round_corners=True)(#427) -
star()shape (#428) -
image(screen_only=True)(#441) -
add_javascript() - text with rotation/skew (#536)
Closing this now, given that issues were created for every subject (and most of them have been implemented), and that we reference your collection of scripts in https://py-pdf.github.io/fpdf2/#related 🙂
