I wrote a Django app that uses LaTeX to create invoices and some other stuff. It allows me to create nice-looking invoices and reports without manually specifying the (x, y)-position of each line of text, which some PDF generating libraries require. Maybe docgen.io can help others to also create nice invoices.
Unfortunately the "Try me" part seems to be broken - no matter what I input, it always shows the same PDF.
Check at the log tab and the tex tab, the tex tab is the tex file compiled after templating and the log is the output generated by pdflatex. In the log you should see an error. Likely you Tex file contents ins't properly understood by the system
The log tab says error, but it still displays a PDF. Actually, it displays the last PDF that was rendered on the server, even if that PDF was created by a different user.
yeah I have to fix that render bug in the example implementation. The try this uses the same API_KEY for every client. In real life you wouldn't be seeing other peoples PDFs
Security issue reported via email to nick@. Hope that's the right contact.
PS. Do you have a bug bounty program? ;)
That is the right contact - Thanks for the find.
Is it possible to use other templating engine such as ninjucks, swig to generate the documents?
Currently no. I use mustache with <% as an opening tag and %> as closing tag so as not to conflict with the tex file structure.
