How to use PDFParser inside a Symfony Controller Action?

[Fanny-gutting]

I use this to make my routes: /** * @Route("/", name="accueil_index", methods={"GET"}) */ but I don't understand how to use pdf parser

Do you wanna read a PDF file and output its content on a HTML page?

I assume you use Symfony framework together with PDFParser installed using Composer? Then you can just use:

$pdfparser = new PDFParser();
$document = $pdfparser->parseFile($fileToParse);
$pages = $document->getPages();
foreach ($pages as $page) {
    $content = $page->getText();
    // ...
}
