Complete survey to improve klibs.io ↗Converts HTML markup into a `ByteArray` for generating receipt images. Supports local HTML rendering with coroutine-based asynchronous architecture and uses platform callbacks for completion detection.
A Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) library for converting HTML markup into a ByteArray.
html-screenshot was created for the Tikbit application to enable the generation of receipt images from HTML.
The library only handles local HTML-to-image conversion, meaning it does not support remote resources.
Local HTML Rendering
Accepts HTML as a string; no network requests or remote resources required.
Coroutine-Based Architecture
Uses Kotlin coroutines for non-blocking, asynchronous rendering.
Rendering Callbacks
Relies on platform callbacks (Android and iOS) to detect when rendering is complete, avoiding arbitrary time-outs.
val htmlContent = """
<html>
<body>
<h1>Receipt</h1>
<p>Amount: $19.99</p>
<p>Date: 2025-05-04</p>
</body>
</html>
""".trimIndent()
private val imageConverter = HtmlToImageConverter(ScreenshotThatHtmlConfiguration(imageWidth = 480))
val result = imageConverter.convert(htmlContent)
when (result) {
is Html2ScreenshotResult.Success -> {
result.data
}
is Html2ScreenshotResult.Error -> {
null
}
else -> null
}
Based on android-html2bitmap. Without their previous efforts this would've taken much longer to develop. Adapted to Kotlin coroutines and updated rendering logic to improve reliability.
