Quickstart

Get from zero to a generated PDF in 5 minutes.

​
1. Get an API Key

Sign up at app.getdocuforge.dev and copy your API key from the dashboard. It starts with df_live_.

​
2. Install the SDK

npm install docuforge

​
3. Generate Your First PDF

import { DocuForge } from 'docuforge';

const df = new DocuForge(process.env.DOCUFORGE_API_KEY);

const pdf = await df.generate({
  html: `
    <h1>Hello from DocuForge</h1>
    <p>This took 30 seconds, not 3 days.</p>
  `,
  options: { format: 'A4' }
});

console.log(pdf.url);

​
4. Use Templates

Create a reusable template and merge data on each call: 
// Create a template
const template = await df.templates.create({
  name: 'Invoice',
  html_content: `
    <h1>Invoice for {{company}}</h1>
    <table>
      {{#each items}}
      <tr>
        <td>{{description}}</td>
        <td>{{qty}} × ${{rate}}</td>
      </tr>
      {{/each}}
    </table>
    <h2>Total: ${{total}}</h2>
  `
});

// Generate from template
const pdf = await df.fromTemplate({
  template: template.id,
  data: {
    company: 'Acme Corp',
    items: [{ description: 'Consulting', qty: 10, rate: 150 }],
    total: 1500
  }
});

​
5. Add Headers & Footers

const pdf = await df.generate({
  html: invoiceHTML,
  options: {
    format: 'A4',
    margin: { top: '1in', bottom: '1in', left: '0.75in', right: '0.75in' },
    header: '<div style="font-size:10px;text-align:center">Acme Corp</div>',
    footer: '<div style="font-size:10px;text-align:center">Page {{pageNumber}} of {{totalPages}}</div>'
  }
});
