Haiti PDF

flavour coordinating

• Fix the base PDF generation in models/01_RESTlike_controller.py's export_pdf() as they currently look awful (& hence aren't exposed to users by hiding it in views/formats.html)!
  • /module/resource.pdf
• Provide a Filter option exposed to users so they can print just the Contacts for a particular Organisation
  • Ideally a generic routine, but then a custom one can be added via response.s3.formats.pdf variable being set in the Controller before invoking the shn_rest_controller() to make it really pretty

See:

• ​https://bugs.launchpad.net/sahana/+bug/508654
  • "generate a contact list for specific orgs as a PDF"
• BluePrintReporting
  • We currently use Geraldo for PDF creation, but it has issues, so we should consider either switching to Pisa or dropping down to raw ReportLab (with our own custom classes on top).
    • We do this already for the OCR PDF generation.

NB We're currently having ​problems getting Geraldo (0.3.6 & 0.3.9) working on Prod Debian server at all, so test offline on your own instance for now...works fine on my local Win32
