On the Angular 2 framework (now Angular 13), you can use the step-by-step logic mentioned below:
- On click execute
generateAllPdf()function - gather all 6
id‘s from my HTML collection - iterate through each id and call the html2canvas function,
- as html2canvas runs in the background to process images, I’m using await on function,
- after the html2canvas completes its process, I’ll save the document,
- Suppose, if I don’t use await, I’ll end up downloading an empty page.
// As All Functions in js are asynchronus, to use await i am using async here
async generateAllPdf() {
const doc = new jsPDF('p', 'mm', 'a4');
const options = {
pagesplit: true
};
const ids = document.querySelectorAll('[id]');
const length = ids.length;
for (let i = 0; i < length; i++) {
const chart = document.getElementById(ids[i].id);
// excute this function then exit loop
await html2canvas(chart, { scale: 1 }).then(function (canvas) {
doc.addImage(canvas.toDataURL('image/png'), 'JPEG', 10, 50, 200, 150);
if (i < (length - 1)) {
doc.addPage();
}
});
}
// download the pdf with all charts
doc.save('All_charts_' + Date.now() + '.pdf');
}I think the issue here is that elementTobePrinted is not what you think it is.
When you run the code:
var elementTobePrinted = angular.element(attrs.selector)
This will return you a list of every element that matches the conditions, so you said you have 6 of these elements (“It has 6 divs”).
Have you tried replacing:
html2canvas(elementTobePrinted, {
onrendered: function (canvas) {
var doc = new jsPDF();
for(var i=1;i<elementTobePrinted.length;i++) {
doc.addImage(canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg"), 'jpeg', 15, 40, 180, 160);
doc.addImage(canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg"),'JPEG', 0, 0, 215, 40)
doc.addPage();
}
doc.save(attrs.fileName);
}for(var i=0; i<elementTobePrinted.length; i++){
html2canvas(elementTobePrinted[i], {
onrendered: function (canvas) {
var doc = new jsPDF();
doc.addImage(canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg"), 'jpeg', 15, 40, 180, 160);
doc.addImage(canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg"),'JPEG', 0, 0, 215, 40)
doc.addPage();
doc.save(attrs.fileName);
}
}The reason I suggest this is that html2Canvas wants a SINGLE element as its first parameter and your example above passes a list of elements (I think, assuming angular.element(attrs.selector) finds all 6 divs you are trying to print).
