A Simple PDF Viewer library which only occupies around 125kb while most of the Pdf viewer occupie upto 16MB space.
Integrating the project is simple. All you need to do is follow the below steps:
Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file and in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
Step 2. Add the dependency
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.afreakyelf:Pdf-Viewer:{Tag}'
}
NOTE: Replace the tag with current release version, e.g
implementation 'com.github.afreakyelf:Pdf-Viewer:v1.0.7'
Now you have integrated the library in your project but how do you use it? Well its really easy just launch the intent with in following way:
open_pdf.setOnClickListener {
startActivity(
// Use 'launchPdfFromPath' if you want to use assets file (enable "fromAssets" flag) / internal directory
PdfViewerActivity.launchPdfFromUrl( //PdfViewerActivity.Companion.launchPdfFromUrl(.. :: incase of JAVA
context,
"pdf_url", // PDF URL in String format
"Pdf title/name ", // PDF Name/Title in String format
"pdf directory to save", // If nothing specific, Put "" it will save to Downloads
enableDownload = false // This param is true by defualt.
)
)
}
open_pdf.setOnClickListener(view -> {
startActivity(
// Opening pdf from assets folder
PdfViewerActivity.Companion.launchPdfFromPath(
this,
"file_name.pdf",
"Pdf title/name",
"assets",
false,
true
)
);
});
That's pretty much it and you're all wrapped up.
You need to add the custom theme to styles.xml/themes.xml file and override the required attribute values. Parent theme can be either Theme.PdfView.Light or Theme.PdfView.Dark or the one with no actionbar from the application. Note: If parent is not one of the themes from this library, all of the pdfView attributes should be added to that theme.
<style name="Theme.PdfView.SelectedTheme" parent="@style/Theme.PdfView.Light">
<item name="pdfView_backIcon">@drawable/ic_arrow_back</item>
...
</style>
Attribute Name | Type | Expected changes |
---|---|---|
pdfView_backIcon | drawable | Navigation icon |
pdfView_downloadIcon | drawable | Download icon |
pdfView_downloadIconTint | color | Download icon tint |
pdfView_actionBarTint | color | Actionbar background color |
pdfView_titleTextStyle | style | Actionbar title text appearance |
pdfView_progressBar | style | Progress bar style |
