[Add-on Request] New operation: export details view to a PDF #12

Closed tabacitu closed 1 year ago

A bulk action would also make sense for this. Markes as a COULD in the v4 wish-list, since it would be easy to introduce after launch.

Thoughts?

I don't really see much use for this since most of us could just do a print page as PDF. Unless there is a need for custom format for the PDF export.

Might be better to move server side CSV export up to MUST or SHOULD category

Having said that, I think some people might need this to generate a custom pdf report for an entry. But I just don't see it as needed as server side csv / xls export yet

Funny. After my previous comment, I now need this feature.

On second thought, this would work best as an add-on. It's not a must-have, it's a nice-to-have. Let me know if anybody needs this and wants to work on it - I would absolutely LOVE it.

I personally need it to export invoices. If it had an accompanying bulk operation too - it would probably save me 15 minutes/month. Which is not a lot but... you know... developers tend to be lazy 😆 I know I am.

We've added this a while back, we have the https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/download-operation So let's close this
