Scribe

Scribe generates PDF documents using a WebKit rendering engine.

To generate a PDF:

• Send a GET request with a url query string parameter, which points to webpage which will be rendered as a PDF.
• This URL is expected to be valid (i.e. domain resolves, returns a 2XX, 3XX status, etc).
• If this URL cannot be resolved or a successful GET is not possible, this request will return an HTTP 412 - Precondition Failed response.

Requirements

• PhantomJS 1.9.0 (Development) Version (compile from master branch).
• Supervisord - or some way to manage the goscribed process.
• Rasterize.coffee - included in the libs directory.
