I want to open pdf in my app after some research i found about "Android PdfViewer" but i don't know how to use it jetpack compose using the interoperability as it is java library.
This is how i using Android PdfViewer but it is not rendering the pdf.
@Composable
fun PdfViewer(
modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
dashboardViewModel: DashboardViewModel
) {
AndroidView(
modifier = modifier
.fillMaxSize()
.padding(top = 4.dp, bottom = 24.dp),
factory = { context ->
PDFView(context = context, set = null).apply {
Timber.i(File(dashboardViewModel.pdfUri.value).toUri().toString())
fromUri(File(dashboardViewModel.pdfUri.value).toUri())
.load()
}
})
}
It was not working so i made an new activity in which i use xml instead of composables.
To render pdf i am using Android PdfViewer library.
PdfActivity.kt
class PdfActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private lateinit var fileName: String
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_pdf)
val pdfLayout = findViewById<PDFView>(R.id.pdfViewLayout)
val intent = intent
if (intent.extras != null) {
fileName = intent.extras?.getString("fileName").toString()
}
try {
pdfLayout.fromUri(File("${applicationContext.getExternalFilesDir(null)}/$fileName.pdf").toUri())
.autoSpacing(true)
.fitEachPage(true)
.load()
} catch (e: Exception) {
Timber.d(e.message)
}
}
}
activity_pdf.xml
