This is a simple example:

import io
from django.http import FileResponse
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas

def generate_report(request):
    # create a file-like buffer to receive PDF data.
    buffer = io.BytesIO()

    # create the PDF object, using the buffer as its "file."
    P = canvas.Canvas(buffer)

    # Draw things on the PDF. Here's where the PDF generation happens.
    # See ReportLab documentation for the full list of functionality.
    p.drawString(100, 100, "Hello World!")

    # Close the PDF object cleanly, and we're done.
    p.showPage()
    p.save()

    # FileResponse sets the Content-Disposition header so that browsers
    # present the option to save the file.
    return FileResponse(buffer, as_attachment=True, filename="hello.pdf")
