I'm doing a dynamic Django template that fills a table with information and I'm currently running issues with data overflow from one page to another which distorts the layout for the header and footer elements
`
def create_render(data_header, data_body, data_footer=None):
"""
Función para crear el renderizado de las pantallas de header y body
Se neceista pasarle un diccionario con el header y uno con los del boddy y el base_url
"""
def get_page_body(boxes):
for box in boxes:
if box.element_tag == "body":
return box
return get_page_body(box.all_children())
URL_BASE=request.build_absolute_uri()
html_string = render_to_string(data_header["template"], data_header)
html = HTML(string=html_string, base_url=URL_BASE)
header = html.render()
footer = None
if data_footer is not None:
html_string = render_to_string(data_footer["template"], data_footer)
html = HTML(string=html_string, base_url=URL_BASE)
footer = html.render()
# Main template
html_string = render_to_string(data_body["template"], data_body)
html = HTML(string=html_string, base_url=URL_BASE)
main_doc = html.render()
exists_links = False
header_page = header.pages[0]
exists_links = exists_links or header_page.links
header_body = get_page_body(header_page._page_box.all_children())
header_body = header_body.copy_with_children(header_body.all_children())
exists_links_footer = False
footer_body = None
footer_page = None
if footer is not None:
footer_page = footer.pages[0]
exists_links_footer = exists_links_footer or footer_page.links
footer_body = get_page_body(footer_page._page_box.all_children())
footer_body = footer_body.copy_with_children(footer_body.all_children())
# Insert header and footer in main doc
for i, page in enumerate(main_doc.pages):
page_body = get_page_body(page._page_box.all_children())
page_body.children += header_body.all_children()
if exists_links:
page.links.extend(header_page.links)
if footer_body is not None:
page_body.children += footer_body.all_children()
if exists_links_footer:
page.links.extend(footer_page.links)
return main_doc
`
I've changed the CSS tags, such as word-break and word-wrap and height. I've also tried transforming the page. I've added the weasyprint function if it helps. I'm joining the elements and rendering all to one single html.
