Lambda-puppeteer HTML to PDF

This project contains sample code related to a series of Medium articles.

In the first article of the series, I walked through the process of setting up a headless chrome browser that you can run on AWS and using the Puppeteer API, have chrome navigate to a URL, wait for the page to fully-load and then create a PDF.

In the second article I showed how to encrypt the PDF using the command-line tool qpdf, which was built from source.

In the third article I walk through a real-world example of AWS step functions use. I covered building a step functions process that calls the PDF service, decides whether to encrypt the output, then emails the PDF to a specified address.

Before deploying, set your email address and email password using the AWS cli

aws ssm put-parameter --name emailAddress-dev --type SecureString --region us-east-1 --value <your email address>
aws ssm put-parameter --name emailPassword-dev --type SecureString --region us-east-1 --value <your email password>

Deploy using

npm run deploy
