I noticed there was a GitHub Action that generated a Windows (
.exe
) executable, but nothing for macOS. This pull request adds a GitHub Action to generate an executable binary for macOS.Testing
There is a test step in the GitHub Action, so no manually testing should be necessary, however, if you'd like you can download the artifact produced from the GitHub Action run. You'll need to run
chmod +x weasyprint-macos/dist/weasyprint
in order to be able to execute, but once you do, you can run./weasyprint-macos/dist/weasyprint --info
to verify the executable is working.Use cases
This executable can be bundled with Electron or Tauri applications so PDF generation is a possibility without requiring users of the built applications to install additional resources.
