Here’s a complete example of configuring the Html2MediaAction:

Html2MediaAction::make('print')
    ->scale(2)
    ->print() // Enable print option
    ->preview() // Enable preview option
    ->filename('invoice') // Custom file name
    ->savePdf() // Enable save as PDF option
    ->requiresConfirmation() // Show confirmation modal
    ->pagebreak('section', ['css', 'legacy'])
    ->orientation('portrait') // Portrait orientation
    ->format('a4', 'mm') // A4 format with mm units
    ->enableLinks() // Enable links in PDF
    ->margin([0, 50, 0, 50]) // Set custom margins
    ->content(fn($record) => view('invoice', ['record' => $record])) // Set content

This configuration will:

• 📄 Generate a PDF from the invoice Blade view.
• 🖨️ Allow users to preview and print the document.
• 💾 Enable saving as PDF and show a confirmation modal before executing.
• 📏 Set A4 format with portrait orientation.
• 🔗 Enable links and set custom margins.

You can use the Html2MediaAction in the same way, whether it's in a Filament table action or a regular action. Simply import the appropriate class:

use Torgodly\Html2Media\Actions\Html2MediaAction;
use Torgodly\Html2Media\Tables\Actions\Html2MediaAction;

This makes the action flexible and usable in various contexts. 🌍

1. For direct printing:

Html2MediaAction::make('print')
    ->content(fn($record) => view('invoice', ['record' => $record]))

This will directly open the print dialog for the HTML content. 🖨️

2. For saving as PDF:

Html2MediaAction::make('print')
    ->savePdf()
    ->content(fn($record) => view('invoice', ['record' => $record]))

This will save the HTML content as a PDF. 💾

The Html2Media package for Filament makes it easy to generate PDFs, preview documents, and print content directly from your Laravel app. With flexible configuration options, you can tailor it to your specific needs, ensuring smooth document handling. ✨
