How to convert page that is loading data?

[denisvolokh]

Hi,

I have page that is populating grid from external resource via rest api. After converting page with pdfkit the table is empty.

Can pdfkit wait until all data is loaded?

You probably want these options:

--window-status <windowStatus>  Wait until window.status is equal to this
                                string before rendering page
--javascript-delay <msec>       Wait some milliseconds for javascript
                                finish (default 200)
--no-stop-slow-scripts          Do not Stop slow running javascripts

--window-status is probably the best option here, because you can control exactly when your page will be rendered by wkhtmltopdf

Maybe these links will help too:

Thank you your hint. I am going to try window status.

Looks like there is problem with rendering when link is in this format www.site.com/#/invoice but it works when I put page like www.site.com/invoice.html.

I could not find any options for this case.

Are you using any framework (Angular, Backbone, Ember, etc.)? Have you tried rendering this page manually with wkhtmltopdf from the command line?

Looks like wkhtmltopdf issue, since it does page parsing and processing, closing.

Sorry that it took so long for me to get to it...
