is it possible to use it as a library?

[winteraz]

I'm trying to figure out how to use athenapdf as a library. I just want to handle the conversion directly without docker, queues, electron and other stuff.

E.g. func ConvertHTMLToPDF(htmlContent []byte)(pdfCOntent []byte, err error). Where can I find the core code that handles the pdf conversion?

Apologies for the very slow response @winteraz.

Yes, you can use it as a library. It is probably easier in v3 than it is in its current incarnation.

See: https://github.com/arachnys/athenapdf/tree/v3/pkg/converter

You can see how it is being used as a library here.

If you want to go even lower, you can interact with the 'runner': https://github.com/arachnys/athenapdf/blob/v3/pkg/runner/runner.go

Bear in mind, if you use the Chrome-based converter, you will have to have Chrome installed in the environment running the converter.

Hi, how stable is the converter package? Do you treat it as public or does the interface change often?
