Can any share an example of using Angularjs and Pdfkit to save a file to the client downloads? I've got it rendering in the same window as the app, but need it as a pdf file. I'm assuming this is all done client side rather than the server side with the Pdfkit node module.
This solution can help you https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng-pdfkit, it's a An Angular wrapper for PDFKit.

I am trying to create a react-server side boilerplate using express. How can I configure it so that some pages get generated on the server and send raw HTML to the browser and for some pages, I don't want any SEO and other stuff so just want to send compile javascript code to the browser where browser compiles it and create needed HTML and make API calls.
Is this kind of configuration possible? Can anyone please guide me to the right direction?
I am new to Angularjs and want to know can we use angularjs in .ejs files for writing client side applications. Also, can we write both angularjs and nodejs files in the same .ejs file? I will be grateful for any further guidance.
The best way is to render the index page from server and then use angularjs local routing to load templates.
I have a task where I need to export the html to pdf. Where the pdf should have the same design as it has in browser. Basically I need the css should also work in pdf file. Am using angularjs for front end. But I have not found any use full module or any js library which supports my requirement. I also need to update AngularJS scope variables values in pdf. I found one http://pdfmake.org/#/ but it only supports some predefined css attributes. Please provide some suggestion if there is some npm module or any js library which render the html to pdf with css.
Thank you
I am not sure if there is a fully featured JavaScript solution, which can convert HTML/CSS to PDF on client side. It makes sense to take a look to server-side solutions - there are many available.
In an "hybrid" scenario on client side you'd need to populate a HTML/CSS template with variable values, send the resulting HTML/CSS doc to the server side and to receive back a generated PDF.
In the case it is not important anymore, if the converter is written in JavaScript. You may use a standalone native applications, utilize print/PDF output subsystem of WebKit (i.e. PhantomJS) or it can be, for example, a Java module deployed to your application server (i.e. PD4ML).
I am having an issue where my grunt build file is building correctly, but the website I'm working on is not getting all of the css files. It is only getting the master.css file. I'm using nodejs, with kraken, on top of express. I can't tell if there is some configuration option I need to change, I don't really know where I would do that.
For anyone interested, the issue was with the changing structure of the project. Going from angular to a dustjs w/ backbone combo changes the project form a SPA structure to a multi-page structure. This makes a huge difference because now instead of sending everything at once we are sending pages as they are needed, this also means that when a user switches to a different view, the server will be building an html version of that view and sending it back as fully fleshed out html. When the server builds the page it has access to the file structure, which means that the build folder that was necessary for the angular project, is no longer necessary.
I´m trying to integrate a Blueimp Jquery File Upload plugin in my application.
My application has an AngularJS front-end running in a Node.js server and a Rails API backend running in a WEBrick server.
I would like to clarify which is the best practices to store the files? In Angular (this case Node.js) server or the Rails one.
Thanks,
Roberto.
I'm working on an app that has the exact same layout as yours and I came to the same question.
Since I'm trying to separate the back-end and front-end completely and have all the work with the db and files done in the back-end, I found that it's better to save the files in Rails server. That also gives you an option to do background operations with files (using sidekiq, for example), without making users wait for completion in the front-end.
There are lots of tools for file upload from angularJS to the server (Rails), but I personally found angular-file-upload directive easiest to understand and implement. I recommend you check it out.
I hope it helps,
