Convert PDF to HTML using PHP

Although the aforementioned services can be accessed using plain HTTP requests, this tutorial utilises our open-source PHP IDRCloudClient, which offers a straightforward PHP wrapper around the REST API.

Prerequisites

To install the idrsolutions-csharp-client package using NuGet, run the following command:

nuget install idrsolutions-php-client

Code Example

Here is a basic code example for converting PDF files to HTML or SVG. Detailed configuration options and advanced features are provided below.

 ‘input’ => IDRCloudClient::INPUT_UPLOAD,
‘file’ => __DIR__ . ‘path/to/file.pdf’
);

$results = IDRCloudClient::convert(array(
‘endpoint’ => $endpoint,
‘parameters’ => $parameters
));

IDRCloudClient::downloadOutput($results, __DIR__ . ‘/’);

echo $results[‘downloadUrl’];

Return result to a callback URL

The BuildVu Microservice supports a callback URL to send the status upon conversion completion, eliminating the need to constantly poll the service. You can provide the callback URL to the parameters array as demonstrated below:

The callback URL can be provided to the convert method as demonstrated below:

$parameters = array(
//’token’ => ‘Token’, // Required only when connecting to the IDRsolutions trial and cloud subscription service
‘input’ => IDRCloudClient::INPUT_UPLOAD,
‘callbackUrl’ => ‘http://listener.url’,
‘file’ => __DIR__ . ‘path/to/file.pdf’
);

Configuration Options

The BuildVu API allows for conversion customization using a stringified JSON object with key-value pair configuration options. Add these settings to the parameters array. A comprehensive list of options for converting PDF files to HTML or SVG can be found here.

["settings"] = "{\"key\":\"value\",\"key\":\"value\"}"

Upload by URL

In addition to uploading a local file, you can provide a URL for the BuildVu Microservice to download and convert. Simply replace the input and file values in the parameters array with the following.

["input"] = IDRCloudClient.DOWNLOAD
["url"] = "http://exampleURL/exampleFile.pdf"

Using Authentication

If you require authentication for your BuildVu Microservice, provide username and password when converting and downloading HTML from PDF. Add two variables named username and password to the parameters array, as shown below.

‘username’ => ‘Username_If_Required’,
‘password’ => ‘Password_If_Required’,

In such cases, you’ll also need to provide the authentication values to the downloadOutput method.

IDRCloudClient::downloadOutput($results, __DIR__ . ‘/’,’newFileName’,’username’,’password’);
