placeholder in PDF-templates for user who prints the report

[ctheuring]

what is the placeholder? I've tested everything (?) but still empty print
I use dompdf.

here is the link to the documentation that covers that subject https://docs.espocrm.com/user-guide/...rinting-to-pdf

{{reportTable border=1 borderColor="#333" cellpadding=2 fontSize=9}}

Placeholder for current user is: {{assignedUserName}}

There's no such placeholder as far as I remember. You can implement it though, it's pretty trivial. https://docs.espocrm.com/development...custom-helper/

Thanks yuri for your hint.
I tried it ... but for me it's not trivial to get it run:
At which place I have to add the dependecy to which field that shows me the name of the loged-in-user?

<?php
namespace Espo\Custom\TemplateHelpers;

use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper;
use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper\Data;
use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper\Result;

class UserPrint implements Helper
{
public function __construct(
// Pass needed dependencies.
) {

}

ok at THIS place, but WHAT?

and if I add {{userPrint 'good morning' color='#bd318e'}} in my PDF-template, it shows good morning - that's not what I want ...
WHAT is - in my example - to add instead of 'good morning'?

Sometimes it is easy to learn with an example
I think this implementation is useful for all users and all variants of espoCRM.

<?php

namespace Espo\Custom\TemplateHelpers;

use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper;
use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper\Data;
use Espo\Core\Htmlizer\Helper\Result;
use Espo\Entities\User;

class PrintedBy implements Helper
{
    public function __construct(
        private User $user,
    ){}

    public function render(Data $data): Result
    {  
        return Result::createSafeString( $this->user->get('name') );
    }
}​

{ "printedBy": "Espo\\Custom\\TemplateHelpers\\PrintedBy" } 

and print-in-pdf
{{printedBy}}

Hello item,

that's what I want ... and it shows my inadequateness of php.
Now it runs
