 | |
| <h2>1. Defining possible PDF values<br>
 | |
| </h2>
 | |
| The first step to PDF output is defining what values your module
 | |
| provides. This is needed for the PDF editor, otherwise the user will
 | |
| not be able to select values from your module.<br>
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| The PDF values are specified with <span style="font-weight: bold;">get_pdfFields()</span>
 | |
| or <span style="font-weight: bold;">meta['PDF_fields']</span>.<br>
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| <span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| The <span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
 | |
| module has only one attribute and therefore one PDF value: the MAC
 | |
| address.<br>
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| <table style="width: 100%; text-align: left;" class="mod-code" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">

| <h2>2. Providing data to put into the PDF file<br>
 | |
| </h2>
 | |
| When the user wants to create a PDF file the LDAP account is loaded and
 | |
| you module is asked for data to put into the PDF file.<br>
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| This is done with <span style="font-weight: bold;">get_pdfEntries()</span>.<br>
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| <span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| The <span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
 | |
| module will return the MAC address list of the account.<br>
 | |
| <br>

| (sizeof($this->attributes['macAddress']) > 0) {<br>
 | |

 | |
| $return['ieee802Device_macAddress'] = '<block><key>' .
 | |
| _('MAC address list') . '</key><value>' . implode(', ',
 | |
