Generate pdf and html invoices.

SimpleInvoice

Allows generating simple invoices in either html or pdf, requires a parameter of type RawInvoice, that defines the invoice data. That raw invoice type is then parsed, and the total/tax values are calculated, resulting in a ParsedInvoice.

FromFile

Helper struct that can read either a json or toml file, and convert that raw file string into a RawInvoice type.

extensibility

You can of course, create your own invoices, with knowledge of HTML+Askama or GenPdf.
The SimpleInvoice implementation can be used as an example, and there is a lot to extend from it:

• Custom colors
• Setting an svg as a watermark for your invoice
• Reorganizing the items in different ways
• Removing invoice data that you don't need
• etc

upcoming

planned

1. SVG Watermark on the background of SimpleInvoice, or some other new invoice, perhaps WaterMarkedInvoice
2. Other styles of invoices

unplanned

• I would like to make the invoice types more generic, allowing you to use the default provided types, or make your own raw-invoice types. ¹
