I currently have this view in Django, which renders a bunch of records on my html page perfectly
def patient_page(request, id):
pat = models.patient.objects.get(pk=id) # Goes to patient models returns pk according to page
rec = models.record.objects.all().filter(patient_assign__pk=id).order_by('-date')
return render(request=request,
template_name = 'main/patient_page.html',
context = {"pats":pat,
"rec":rec
}
)
I also have this code which prints perfectly, I could easily insert a variable.
def write_pdf_view(textobject):
#Need to play with filename.
response = HttpResponse(content_type='application/pdf')
response['Content-Disposition'] = 'inline; filename="txt_obj.pdf"'
buffer = BytesIO()
my_canvas = canvas.Canvas(buffer)
# Create textobject(s)
textobject = my_canvas.beginText(30 * mm, 65 * mm)
textobject.setFont('Times-Roman', 8)
textobject.textLine(text="+ Hello This text is written 30mm in and 65mm up from the mark")
my_canvas.drawText(textobject)
title = "this is my title"
my_canvas.setTitle(title)
my_canvas.showPage()
my_canvas.save()
pdf = buffer.getvalue()
buffer.close()
response.write(pdf)
return response
My Question, does anyone have an idea of how I might render to pdf AND print to PDF, ie next to the record on the html I have a print button which currently runs my print to pdf script.
OK, so of course I'm a newbie and learning but here' what I did, I essentially passed a record number through a url into my function. I'm sure there's a better (more secure) way, but I secured it with a superuser decorator for now. (from here: django @login_required decorator for a superuser )
{% for rec in rec %}
<ul>
<b>Created: </b>{{ rec.date }} <b>Record:</b>   <a href="{% url 'main:record_specific' rec.exam_record_number %}">{{ rec.exam_record_number }}</a>
<a href="{% url 'main:print_record' rec.exam_record_number %}" download style="float: right;">Print</a>
<br>
<p>{{ rec.exam_record |safe}}</p>
<hr>
</ul>
