CLI tool to convert HTML documents to PDFs using puppeteer.
npm install htmltopdf-batch-puppeteerConverts your HTML files to PDFs.
In batches.
Using puppeteer.
You might use this instead of, for example, wkhtmltopdf if you want the page rendered by Chromium, and if you're comfortable having literally no configurability.
1. Install node and npm.
2. In your terminal, run npm i -g htmltopdf-batch-puppeteer
3. Then run htmltopdf-batch-puppeteer FILE1 FILE2 FILE3 etc.
To convert all the HTML files in a directory you would use htmltopdf-batch-puppeteer /path/to/folder/*.html.
For each input file, an output file will be created with the same name, except with a .pdf suffix.
NOTE: if a file with the target name already exists, it will not be overwritten; the input file will be SKIPPED.
Sometimes it gets stuck on very large HTML pages.
If you wait long enough, it might finish.
Maybe.
I don't know.
