T5: Add ability to programatically render page.
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: TAPESTRY-2217
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2217
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 5.0.10
            Reporter: Olivier Jacquet


This is what I sent to the mailing list:

Is it possible to access the rendered page result from within a page without 
calling the actual http:// address?

I would need this so that I can setup a page that generates xml (xsl-fo) to be 
processed by fop [1] to convert it to pdf. That is much more readable than 
generating the xml of pdf programmatically.

So, basically, what I want is the following unless someone knows a better way:

class MyPage {
  function onSubmit() {
     FOPPage xml = new FOPPage();
     String output = xml.render(); // or something like this
     ...save the output to disk...
     ...convert the output to pdf on disk with FOP...
     ...send the generated pdf to the user...
  }
}

MyPage.tml:
Click the button to get the pdf:
<t:form><input type="submit"></t:form>

FOPPage.tml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>
...


Thank you for considering this.
