# Pdfesto Service

Pdfesto is a project created to generate parameterized PDF files from ODF templates,
without the need to handle complex XML or paid tools.
The entire system was designed to work as a microservice for document generation,
and can be easily executed using the provided Docker image.

Pdfesto is extremely useful for applications such as:
 - Generating contracts with purchase, customer, or other custom information;
 - Automated reports generated from periodic data;
 - Personalized certificates;
 - Tickets, passes, and other confirmations;
 - Anything else your imagination allows... it's free!

## How to use

The simplest way to use it is through a Docker image:

```bash
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/leoconon/pdfesto-service:latest
```

You can create your ODF templates using any version of LibreOffice Writer and use the Variables
(User Fields) feature to define parameters. [Here is an excellent article covering the use of variables 
in LibreOffice](https://frommindtotype.wordpress.com/2018/05/28/writer-an-extreme-example-of-variables-use/).

Using a file like [this example](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/23892623/pdfesto-example.odt), you can make a Form Data request to 
`/pdf/generate` sending the file as a field named "file" and providing values for each variable using their corresponding names:

## How it works

Pdfesto uses Java libraries for ODF manipulation together with LibreOffice running behind the scenes
to generate the PDF with the best possible quality.
