Generating certificates using standard templates by adding data from MySQL table using PHP GD
Using data from MySQL table and generating Certificates dynamically against each record
We have 35 students in a MySQL table and each record has student name, mark, class , gender and id columns. For all students ID is unique. We will print certificates of each student by using data stored against each student. The script will generate certificates by assigning file name based on the ID of the student. All certificates should be stored inside one folder ( outputs ) and name should be 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg etc ..
Use of a common template
One jpg image can be used as blank template with labels to add details of each record. This common blank template is used to create.
Collecting data from MySQL database
SQL dump of the student table is here, Inside the zip file you there is a sql_dump.txt file with the sql dump of the student table to use for generating the certificates.
We are going to use Php Data Object ( PDO ) to manage MySQL database and collect the records. With slight modification same script can be used to get data using MySQLi connection to database.
To check our script first we will put restriction in getting number of records from the database by using SQL LIMIT query. In our program we collected 5 records but query can be changed to remove the LIMIT part to get more records.
While inside the PDO loop to display records we will create our images by using the template and then add data to the template. At the beginning of the loop we will create the image again using the template and start using the same to add data.
We can add name, mark , class and gender to the certificate by changing the position ( $x , $y coordinates ) .
We will add id of each student and current date and time as per the system to the certificate.
