@barchart/aws-lambda-pdf-generator

Generate PDF files from HTML documents.

Simply POST an HTML document to a web service and receive an application/pdf document in response.

Implementation

• The Serverless framework creates a web service using AWS API Gateway and AWS Lambda.
• The web service uses Puppeteer and Chromium to render an HTML document as a PDF file.

Technical Notes

ARM Architecture (2023/08/31, v3.0.0)

It would be nice to use ARM architecture for AWS Lambda functions (and use Apple silicon locally). However, the @sparticuz/chromium project has not yet added support. See the comments here.
