pdf-lib node package for manipulate pdf template

 use pdf-lib to fill in pdf template:


export const fillForm = async (pdfDoc: any, fieldNames: string[], fieldValues: string[]) => {

  const form = pdfDoc.context.lookup(pdfDoc.catalog.get(PDFName.of('AcroForm')))

  if (!form) {

    throw new Error('PDF does not contain a form')

  }


  form.set(PDFName.of('NeedAppearances'), PDFBool.True)


  const fieldRefs = form.context.lookup(form.get(PDFName.of('Fields')))

  if (!fieldRefs) {

    throw new Error('PDF form does not contain any fields')

  }


  const fields = fieldRefs.array.map((ref: any) => form.context.lookup(ref))


  fields.forEach((field: any) => {

    const name = field.get(PDFName.of('T'))

    console.log('pdf form fieldName:', name, name.value)

    if (name) {

      const idx = fieldNames.indexOf(name.value)

      const newValue = idx >= 0 ? fieldValues[idx] : '' 

      if (newValue) {

        field.set(PDFName.of('V'), PDFString.of(newValue))

        field.set(PDFName.of('Ff'), PDFNumber.of(1))

      }

    }

  })

}

for loop in javascript - promise - .eslintrc for "for of"

the vast majority of cases  map ,  forEach ,  find  etc. can be used.  async function printFiles () { const files = await getFilePaths(); await Promise.all(files. map (async (file) => { const contents = await fs.readFile(file, 'utf8') console.log(contents) })); } const inventory = [ { name : 'apples' , quantity : 2 } , { name : 'bananas' , quantity : 0 } , { name : 'cherries' , quantity : 5 } ] ; const result = inventory . find ( ( { name } ) => name === 'cherries' ) ;   function getFirstMatching(array) { for (let item of array) { const result = heavyTransform(item); if (result) { return result; } } } Specifically this shuts down the whole no-restricted-syntax. If you want to cherry-pick, here is the current definition: 'no-restricted-syntax' : [ 'error' , { selector : 'ForInStatement' , message...

Apollo client - cache APIs - auto update cache - erase cache - reactive variables - deletion - addition

Apollo Client 3  Local only fields Reactive Variables const cache = new InMemoryCache ( { typePolicies : { Todo : { // If one of the keyFields is an object with fields of its own, you can // include those nested keyFields by using a nested array of strings: keyFields : [ "date" , "user" , [ "email" ] ] , } } , } ) ; This internal data is intended to be easily  JSON-serializable , so you can take a snapshot with  cache.extract() , save it somewhere, and later restore with  cache.restore(snapshot) . Here’s a mutation called  EditTodo  that returns the new  todo  value in the mutation response. mutation EditTodo ( $id : Int ! , $text : String ! ) { editTodo ( id : $id , text : $text ) { success todo { # <- Returning it here id text completed } error { ... on TodoNotFoundError { message } ... on TodoValidationE...

window.URL.createObjectURL is not (yet) available in jest-dom - testing scenario

Since  window.URL.createObjectURL  is not (yet) available in jest-dom, you need to provide a mock implementation for it. Don't forget to reset the mock implementation after each test. describe ( "your test suite" , () => { window . URL . createObjectURL = jest . fn (); afterEach (() => { window . URL . createObjectURL . mockReset (); }); it ( "your test case" , () => { expect ( true ). toBeTruthy (); }); });
