Snapshot of Kibana 7.1 dashboard using phantomjs

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hi,

Im using Kibana 7.1.1, and I want to capture pdf or png of Kibana dashboard.
Tried below code, but it is capturing blank page.

======Code starts ======
var page = require('webpage').create(),
system = require('system'),
address, output, size;
//How to to wait for kibana to load and the data from elasticseatch in milliseconds.
var waitTime = 10 * 1000;

if (system.args.length < 3 || system.args.length > 5) {
console.log('Usage: rasterize.js URL filename [paperwidth paperheight|paperformat] [zoom]');
console.log(' paper (pdf output) examples: "5in 7.5in", "10cm 20cm", "A4", "Letter"');
phantom.exit(1);
} else {
address = system.args[1];
output = system.args[2];
page.viewportSize = { width: 1024, height: 1024 };
if (system.args.length > 3 && system.args[2].substr(-4) === ".pdf") {
size = system.args[3].split(' ');
page.paperSize = size.length === 2 ? { width: size[0], height: size[1], margin: '0px' }
: { format: system.args[3], orientation: 'portrait', margin: '1cm' };
}
if (system.args.length > 4) {
page.zoomFactor = system.args[4];
}
page.open(address, function (status) {
if (status !== 'success') {
console.log('Unable to load the address!');
phantom.exit();
} else {
window.setTimeout(function () {
page.render(output);
phantom.exit();
}, waitTime);
}
});
}
======Code ends ======

command: >phantomjs hello.js http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/dashboard/88bc09e0-9ed8-11e9-982a-b9c18cbffde2 kibi.pdf

Know that reporting plugin is there, but it is paid!!

Any leads will be more helpful!

Thanks in advance!

It's a rather complex process to capture a PDF or PNG of a Kibana dashboard, which is why the Reporting plugin exists. Also, PhantomJS is a rather outdated browser, and an abandoned project, so I'd highly recommend using something like Headless Chromium instead.
