Core utilities and constants for pdfn packages
npm install @pdfn/coreShared utilities and constants for pdfn packages.
> Note: This is an internal package. Most users should use @pdfn/react directly.
@pdfn/core provides shared functionality used across the pdfn ecosystem:
- Page sizes — A4, Letter, Legal, and other standard dimensions
- CSS utilities — Base styles for PDF rendering
- Tailwind helpers — Class extraction and marker detection
- HTML generation — Client-side rendering HTML templates
``bash`
npm install @pdfn/core
The main entry point contains utilities safe for browser bundling:
`typescript
import {
// Page sizes
PAGE_SIZES,
getPageDimensions,
getPageSizeCss,
// CSS utilities
BASE_STYLES,
generatePageCss,
extractPageConfig,
// Tailwind utilities
hasTailwindMarker,
extractPrecompiledCss,
removeTailwindMarker,
// HTML generation
generateClientHtml,
CLIENT_READY_SCRIPT,
} from '@pdfn/core';
`
Server-only Tailwind CSS compilation. Uses Node.js built-ins (fs, path) and fast-glob:
`typescript
import { compileTailwind } from '@pdfn/core/tailwind';
const { css, classCount, fileCount } = await compileTailwind({
templatePatterns: ['./pdfn-templates/*/.tsx'],
cssPath: './pdfn-templates/styles.css', // optional
cwd: process.cwd(),
debug: true,
});
`
> Important: Only import from @pdfn/core/tailwind in server-side code (build plugins, CLI tools). It cannot be bundled for browsers.
