'Spring Boot giving errors during template parsing using Thymeleaf
I'm currently trying to parse a PDF from thymeleaf html code. I've run into the issue that I get a error while using my parse function.
My maven pom I am using to parse the pdf is the following:
<!-- Pdf Generator -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf</artifactId>
<version>3.0.12.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
<version>2.6.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.xhtmlrenderer</groupId>
<artifactId>flying-saucer-pdf</artifactId>
<version>9.1.22</version>
</dependency>
I made a class named PfdGenerator.java with the following code:
@Service
public class PdfGenerator {
public void generatePdfFromHtml(String html) throws IOException, DocumentException {
String outputFolder = System.getProperty("user.home") + File.separator + "thymeleaf.pdf";
OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(outputFolder);
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
renderer.setDocumentFromString(html);
renderer.layout();
renderer.createPDF(outputStream);
outputStream.close();
}
public String parseThymeleafTemplate() throws IOException {
ClassLoaderTemplateResolver templateResolver = new ClassLoaderTemplateResolver();
templateResolver.setSuffix(".html");
templateResolver.setTemplateMode(TemplateMode.HTML);
TemplateEngine templateEngine = new TemplateEngine();
templateEngine.setTemplateResolver(templateResolver);
Context context = new Context();
context.setVariable("to", "Awesome it works!");
URL url = Resources.getResource("templates/thymeleaf_template.html");
String text = Resources.toString(url, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
return templateEngine.process(text, context);
}
}
The controller I made to download the generated pdf:
(I know that currently the pdf will be downloaded to my local device only. In the future I should be able to press a button in the frontend and download a generated pdf.)
@RestController
@CrossOrigin(origins = "*")
@RequestMapping("/account-manager")
public class AcountManagerController {
private final PdfGenerator pdfGenerator;
@Autowired
public AcountManagerController(PdfGenerator pdfGenerator) {
this.pdfGenerator = pdfGenerator;
}
@GetMapping
public @ResponseBody String generatePdf() throws DocumentException, IOException {
PdfGenerator thymeleaf2Pdf = new PdfGenerator();
String html = thymeleaf2Pdf.parseThymeleafTemplate();
thymeleaf2Pdf.generatePdfFromHtml(html);
return "It Works!";
}
}
Currently I am using a very basic Thymeleaf file just to get the basic implementation right! the file is under resources/templates/thymeleaf_template.html
<html xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">

<h3 style="text-align: center; color: green">

Solution 1:[1]
It may due to your template resolver
You can reference following code at https://simplesolution.dev/spring-boot-generate-pdf-file-from-html-template/
public ClassLoaderTemplateResolver emailTemplateResolver() {
ClassLoaderTemplateResolver pdfTemplateResolver = new ClassLoaderTemplateResolver();
pdfTemplateResolver.setPrefix("pdf-templates/");
pdfTemplateResolver.setSuffix(".html");
pdfTemplateResolver.setTemplateMode("HTML5");
pdfTemplateResolver.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
pdfTemplateResolver.setOrder(1);
return pdfTemplateResolver;
}
