Not able to convert to image.

[ghost]

                  ` $html =  View::make('test', ['pickup'=> $pickup])->render();
		$view = (string)$html;
		$conv = new \Anam\PhantomMagick\Converter();
		
		$client = S3Client::factory([
			'credentials' => [
				'key'    => env('AWS_KEY'),
				'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET'),
			],
			'region' => env('AWS_REGION'),
			'version' => 'latest',
			]
		);
		$options = [
			'width' => 1280,
			'quality' => 90
		];
		$conv->adapter($client, env('AWS_BUCKET'))
		->source($view)
		->setImageOptions($options)
		->toPng()
		->save('try.png');
		return response()->json("done");
	}`

I am not able to convert html file stored in my local to image. When I use addPage it converts image to pdf with .png extension $conv->adapter($client, env('AWS_BUCKET')) ->addPage($view) ->setImageOptions($options) ->toPng() ->save('try.png'); return response()->json("done"); Using a url I am able to store image to my s3 bucket but not with local html file. Need help asap.

Hey @swapu258, I am working on laravel project and I got the same problem too. Here's a working solution for me.

Seems like the problem is this

$html =  View::make('test', ['pickup'=> $pickup])->render();
$view = (string)$html;

source() method only works with the path to the file, we can't just pass the $view. So what I did was, I create a file in public folder (e.g. generated.html) and pass $html to the generated.html using laravel File::put(). Then create $path and assign the path to the generated.html, and pass $path to the source() method.

P.S. Since it's not safe to have something on public folder, after the save() method, I just pass empty string to the $html.

I hope I'm not too late.
