First Steps
This is a simple REST service to the awesome PrinceXML from YesLogic Pty. Ltd. PrinceXML is a HTML/CSS to PDF rendering engine provided as a Command-Line Interface (CLI). This REST service allows you to send your HTML/CSS input files to a central PrinceXML instance and just receive back the rendered PDF file. As a consequence you don't have to install PrinceXML locally.
Examples:
$ curl -D- -s -X POST -F "url=http://www.google.de/" \ --basic --user princexml:princexml -o sample.pdf \
$ curl -D- -s -X POST -F "file=@sample.html" \ --basic --user princexml:princexml -o sample.pdf \ http://<server>:3000/rpe-princexml/
