Gem wicked pdf - CSS doesn't work with rails 5
pdf, pdf-generation, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-5, wicked-pdf
Solution
I hope you already found a solution but, for everyone else, I hit this problem and resolved it by changing the extension of my layout from `.html.erb` to `.pdf.erb`. My layout is now called `report.pdf.erb`.
Problem
I just upgrade my application to rails 5 and the gem `wicked pdf` doesn't display css anymore. I changed nothing, so there're may be some specifications with rails 5. If anybody figure out this problem feel free to help :) Here is my code : object_controller ``` def download @object = object.find(params[:object]) respond_to do |format| format.html format.pdf do render pdf: "ptf_#{@object.id}", layout: 'layouts/pdf_layout', template: 'objects/download.html.erb', title: "download object", show_as_html: false, header: { content: render_to_string(template: 'objects/header_pdf.pdf.erb'), spacing: 7 }, footer: { content: render_to_string(template: 'objects/footer_pdf.pdf.erb'), spacing: 10 }, margin: { top: 55, bottom: 35 } end end ``` pdf_layout.html.erb ``` <% content_for :title do %><%= @title %><% end %> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <%= wicked_pdf_stylesheet_link_tag 'pdf' %> <br> <%= yield %> ``` I tried with both helpers `wicked_pdf_stylesheet_link_tag` and `stylesheet_link_tag wicked_pdf_asset_base64` header_pdf.html.erb ``` <div class="center"> <%= image_tag wicked_pdf_asset_base64("logo.png"), class: 'header' %> <div class="first-class"><%= @object.title %></div> </div> ``` This is a few extract of my code just to show you how I organize my file generation. I also have a file `pdf.scss`
