docrenderer

This module accepts XML input and renders it to PDF using a configured stylesheet.

Versioning

There's still a bit more work before I'm ready to tag a release, but if someone else wants to use this image in production, let me know and I'll tag it anyhow.

Configuration

Two environment variables must be set if not using the provided Dockerfile:

• CONFIG_FILE is the path of a configuration file; see config.sample.toml for a sample file. (This value defaults to /docrenderer/config.toml in the provided Dockerfile.)
• STYLESHEETS_DIR is a directory containing XSL stylesheets. All stylesheet filenames in CONFIG_FILE are relative to this directory. (This value defaults to /docrenderer/stylesheets in the provided Dockerfile.)

Custom fonts

To use fonts beyond the Base 14, mount the directory containing the fonts you wish to use into /usr/local/share/fonts on the host.

Usage example

N.B.: Docker bind mounts must be specified with their absolute pathnames.

docker build -t docrenderer:testme .
docker stop docrenderer
docker rm docrenderer
docker run -d \
--mount=type=bind,source=/some/path/config.toml,destination=/docrenderer/config.toml \
--mount=type=bind,source=/some/path/myxsls,destination=/docrenderer/stylesheets \
--mount=type=bind,source=/some/path/myfonts,destination=/usr/local/share/fonts \
--name=docrenderer -p 3000:3000 backerman/docrenderer
