Usage

In case you're using `systemjs` see configuration here.

Add `PdfViewerModule` to your module's `imports`

`typescript
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app/app.component';

import { PdfViewerModule } from 'ng2-pdf-viewer';

@NgModule({
imports: [BrowserModule, PdfViewerModule],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})

class AppModule {}

platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
`

And then use it in your component

`typescript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
selector: 'example-app',
template:
[render-text]="true"

}
`

#### (after-load-complete)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |

Get PDF information with callback

First define callback function "callBackFn" in your controller,
`typescript
callBackFn(pdf: PDFDocumentProxy) {
// do anything with "pdf"
}
`

And then use it in your template:
`
(after-load-complete)="callBackFn($event)"
`

#### (page-rendered)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |
| (page-rendered) | callback | Optional |

Get event when a page is rendered. Called for every page rendered.

Define callback in your component:

`typescript
pageRendered(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(page-rendered)', e);
}
`

And then bind it to :

`angular2html
(page-rendered)="pageRendered($event)"
`

#### (pages-initialized)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |
| (pages-initialized) | callback | Optional |

Get event when the pages are initialized.

Define callback in your component:

`typescript
pageInitialized(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(pages-initialized)', e);
}
`

And then bind it to :

`angular2html
(pages-initialized)="pageInitialized($event)"
`

#### (text-layer-rendered)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |
| (text-layer-rendered) | callback | Optional |

Get event when a text layer is rendered.

Define callback in your component:

`typescript
textLayerRendered(e: CustomEvent) {
console.log('(text-layer-rendered)', e);
}
`

And then bind it to :

`angular2html
(text-layer-rendered)="textLayerRendered($event)"
`

#### (error)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |
| (error) | callback | Optional |

Error handling callback

Define callback in your component's class

`typescript
onError(error: any) {
// do anything
}
`

Then add it to pdf-component in component's template

`html
(error)="onError($event)"
`

#### (on-progress)

| Property | Type | Required |
| --- | ---- | --- |
| (on-progress) | callback | Optional |

Loading progress callback - provides progress information total and loaded bytes. Is called several times during pdf loading phase.

Define callback in your component's class

`typescript
onProgress(progressData: PDFProgressData) {
// do anything with progress data. For example progress indicator
}
`

Then add it to pdf-component in component's template

`html
(on-progress)="onProgress($event)"
`

Render local PDF file

In your html template add input:

`html

`

and then add onFileSelected method to your component:

`typescript
onFileSelected() {
let $img: any = document.querySelector('#file');

if (typeof (FileReader) !== 'undefined') {
let reader = new FileReader();

reader.onload = (e: any) => {
this.pdfSrc = e.target.result;
};

reader.readAsArrayBuffer($img.files[0]);
}
}
`




Set custom path to the worker

By default the worker is loaded from cdn.jsdelivr.net.

In your code update path to the worker to be for example /pdf.worker.mjs
`typescript
(window as any).pdfWorkerSrc = '/pdf.worker.mjs';
`

This should be set before pdf-viewer component is rendered.

If you ever have a (super rare) edge case where you run in an environment that multiple
components are somehow loaded within the same web page, sharing the same window,
but using different versions of pdf.worker, support has been added. You can do the
above, except that you can append the specific version of pdfjs required and override the
custom path just for that version. This way setting the global window var won't conflict.
`typescript
(window as any)["pdfWorkerSrc2.14.305"] = '/pdf.worker.mjs';
`

Search in the PDF

Use eventBus for the search functionality.

In your component's ts file:

* Add reference to pdf-viewer component,
* then when needed execute search() like this:

`typescript
@ViewChild(PdfViewerComponent) private pdfComponent: PdfViewerComponent;

search(stringToSearch: string) {
this.pdfComponent.eventBus.dispatch('find', {
query: stringToSearch, type: 'again', caseSensitive: false, findPrevious: undefined, highlightAll: true, phraseSearch: true
});
}
``
