[@diidiNovarino]

what if for bulk transaction and we don't know how many item we will put in invoice. dynamic number of item, can be 1, 2 , 3 or more items. so the row of item will be dynamic

How can i send dynamic array for the itemss and totals?

[@dafeichdei]

Hi, first of all, ty for that good video :). For my self-developed ERP System i try to make a module wich creates my invoces. Now what would happen in your program if you have so many posts that a new page is needed. Would it detect the page break itself or try to continue writing on the first page?

[@jozielsc]

When the document is long, in cases where it is necessary to repeat the header and footer, in addition to dealing with page breaks, what do you recommend?

How would you render a list?

[@anthonymarques6551]

Hello, First of all, thanks for the demonstration. If my HTML is already formatted and I just want to convert it into a PDF, how can I do it? I skip the variable steps only, correct?

[@Bruh-og1sz]

how is it new method 2024 when it was uploaded 2 years ago??

[@rohannirwan9868]

Hi I created 1 PDF but the created PDF file size was of 24 MB while the html file is only 800 KB

[@_freak_8377]

Hello. Thank you for an AMAZING video! My only question is how can I change an output path for created pdfs?

[@RDLit-lh4rv]

Nice

[@rowsenbayramow1040]

thx. good video 👍

[@bashful88]

Hello, I wanted to create a table in my pdf,. I will supply the input as an array. Is it possible to iterate through the array in the html using a for loop? Or will it take only static variables?

[@johnkneemtb]

Pass the Python list to the template and Jinja supports {% for item in yourlist %} you then access each item as {{ item}} then close out the loop with {% endfor %}

[@kuyabae9008]

@@johnkneemtb the problem is that the pdfkit only accepts dictionary.

[@johnhorton3727]

​@@kuyabae9008 maybe you're new to Python but a dictionary can contain a list. The below is perfectly fine. context = {'client_name': client_name, 'today_date': today_date, 'total': f'${total:.2f}', 'month': month, 'yourlist':[ {'name': item1, 'subtotal': f'${subtotal1:.2f}'}, {'name': item2, 'subtotal': f'${subtotal2:.2f}'}, {'name': item3, 'subtotal': f'${subtotal3:.2f}'} ] }

[@johnhorton3727]

Then in the HTML it would be something like: {% for row in yourlist %}   {{row['name']}}   {{row['subtotal']}} {% endfor %}

[@CubaPavel]

Thank you, great video.

[@VEDANTSINGH-ij4qe]

i have a question................

[@janawue4164]

Hi, thank you for the really good video! Do you have any idea how I can deal with this if I have a variable number of invoice items and want to display them in the PDF? I am not sure how to do this in the HTML template.

[@leventsertac]

liked the video.

[@CreativeGamez]

my i know which code editor is this?

[@lgaedits]

jetbrains pycharm

[@lgaedits]

it's the best editor out there but also the most expensive. I would rather use vs unless u get it paid by ur company or school

[@sigfigronath]

This is perfect! Can we make this as an app, even terminal app so we can add the values and it generates the invoice

[@ThePyCoach]

Sure. One way to implement what you ask would be using the input function for each variable that I created

[@lovathon6365]

Nothing against you as a creator, but I am learning python and my udemy course has this unfortunate portion that deals with pdf's... after watching your video, i can 1000% say, that making pdf's is the worst thing i have learned in python so far and couldn't even complete that portion of my course. HTML in python, basically, is just horrendous and mind numbing. anything to do with creation is front end and focusing on backend, its just masochism.
