Generar archivo PDF en Android usando Kotlin

La mayoría de las aplicaciones brindan a los usuarios la posibilidad de descargar facturas desde las aplicaciones móviles. Este tipo de aplicación obtiene los datos de APIS o datos dentro de la aplicación y estos datos se utilizan para generar los archivos PDF. Los archivos PDF dentro de Android se generan usando canvas. En este artículo, veremos cómo generar un archivo PDF en Android usando Kotlin. 

Nota : si está buscando generar archivos PDF en una aplicación de Android usando Java. Consulte el siguiente artículo: Cómo generar archivos PDF en Android usando Java

Implementación paso a paso

Paso 1: crea un nuevo proyecto en Android Studio

Para crear un nuevo proyecto en Android Studio, consulte Cómo crear/iniciar un nuevo proyecto en Android Studio . Tenga en cuenta que seleccione Kotlin como lenguaje de programación.

Paso 2: trabajar con el archivo activity_main.xml

Vaya a la aplicación > res > diseño > actividad_principal.xml y agregue el siguiente código a ese archivo. A continuación se muestra el código para el archivo activity_main.xml . Se agregan comentarios dentro del código para comprender el código con más detalle.

XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/container"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">
 
    <!--on below line we are creating
        a simple text view for heading-->
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/idTVHead"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
        android:layout_marginEnd="20dp"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:padding="8dp"
        android:text="PDF Generator"
        android:textAlignment="center"
        android:textColor="@color/purple_200"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        android:textStyle="bold" />
 
    <!--on below line we are creating a
        button to generate a pdf file-->
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/idBtnGeneratePdf"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        android:layout_margin="20dp"
        android:padding="4dp"
        android:text="Generate PDF"
        android:textAllCaps="false" />
   
</RelativeLayout>

Paso 3: agregue permiso para leer y escribir en el almacenamiento externo

Vaya a la aplicación > archivo AndroifManifest.xml y agréguele los siguientes permisos.  

XML

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Paso 4: agregar imágenes a la carpeta dibujable

Copie su imagen y luego navegue a la aplicación> res> dibujable> Haga clic con el botón derecho en ella y simplemente pegue sus imágenes dentro de la carpeta dibujable. 

Paso 5: trabajar con el archivo MainActivity.kt

Vaya al archivo MainActivity.kt y consulte el siguiente código. A continuación se muestra el código del archivo MainActivity.kt . Se agregan comentarios dentro del código para comprender el código con más detalle.
