feature: export to pdf, csv and json along with html

[Tholkappiar]

Feature Request: Export to PDF/CSV

Description

New feature that allows users to export the displayed data to PDF or CSV directly from the HTML page or form the script itself. This enhancement would provide users with the ability to save and share the information in a convenient and portable format.

Is this PDF/CSV formats or okay for the tool , or if you have any other format suggestions kidly give the response regarding this !

Expected Behavior

• The export options should include PDF and CSV formats.
• The exported file should accurately represent the currently displayed data on the HTML page.

Seems useful and interesting feature to add, would you like to work on this?

[Tholkappiar]

In my opinion, pdf will be better option. Also talking about csv it won't take much efforts as we already have option in pandas to do that. You can also go for both option ig.

You want this to be assigned under IWOC2024?

[Tholkappiar]

Yes ! Under IWOC 2024 !

[ksauraj]

I hope you won't be using lot of libraries for that, if that's the case I might label it as hard considering you will add all three options.

[Tholkappiar]

yeah okay , i will take this as challenge and update you ! 👍

[ksauraj]

Lol, All the best

Planning to include these libs in the script , is including these libs okay for the script ?
I have to use the fpdf or some libs to export the pdf !

import json
from fpdf import FPDF

[Tholkappiar]

correctly exporting csv and json (also structured the json data while generating ), but exporting in pdf format is such a hard thing now , have any ideas regarding this , the text in the pdf is overlaying to other texts (used FPDF library) ?

If no other option, use it.
