PdfViewerFragment


@RequiresExtension(extension = 31, version = 13)
open class PdfViewerFragment : Fragment


A Fragment that renders a PDF document.

A [PdfViewerFragment] that can display paginated PDFs. The viewer includes a FAB for annotation support and a search menu. Each page is rendered in its own View. Upon creation, this fragment displays a loading spinner.

Rendering is done in 2 passes:

  1. Layout: Request the page data, get the dimensions and set them as measure for the image view.
  2. Render: Create bitmap(s) at adequate dimensions and attach them to the page view.

The layout pass is progressive: starts with a few first pages of the document, then reach further as the user scrolls down (and ultimately spans the whole document). The rendering pass is tightly limited to the currently visible pages. Pages that are scrolled past (become not visible) have their bitmaps released to free up memory.

Note that every activity/fragment that uses this class has to be themed with Theme.AppCompat or a theme that extends that theme.

Public constructors

PdfViewerFragment

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
PdfViewerFragment()

Public functions

onCreate

open fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?): Unit

Called to do initial creation of a fragment. This is called after onAttach and before onCreateView.

Note that this can be called while the fragment's activity is still in the process of being created. As such, you can not rely on things like the activity's content view hierarchy being initialized at this point. If you want to do work once the activity itself is created, add a androidx.lifecycle.LifecycleObserver on the activity's Lifecycle, removing it when it receives the CREATED callback.

Any restored child fragments will be created before the base Fragment.onCreate method returns.

Parameters
savedInstanceState: Bundle?

If the fragment is being re-created from a previous saved state, this is the state.

onCreateView

open fun onCreateView(
    inflater: LayoutInflater,
    container: ViewGroup?,
    savedInstanceState: Bundle?
): View?

Called to have the fragment instantiate its user interface view. This is optional, and non-graphical fragments can return null. This will be called between onCreate and onViewCreated.

A default View can be returned by calling Fragment in your constructor. Otherwise, this method returns null.

It is recommended to only inflate the layout in this method and move logic that operates on the returned View to onViewCreated.

If you return a View from here, you will later be called in onDestroyView when the view is being released.

Parameters
inflater: LayoutInflater

The LayoutInflater object that can be used to inflate any views in the fragment,

container: ViewGroup?

If non-null, this is the parent view that the fragment's UI should be attached to. The fragment should not add the view itself, but this can be used to generate the LayoutParams of the view.

savedInstanceState: Bundle?

If non-null, this fragment is being re-constructed from a previous saved state as given here.

Returns
View?

Return the View for the fragment's UI, or null.

onDestroy

open fun onDestroy(): Unit

Called when the fragment is no longer in use. This is called after onStop and before onDetach.

onDestroyView

open fun onDestroyView(): Unit

Called when the view previously created by onCreateView has been detached from the fragment. The next time the fragment needs to be displayed, a new view will be created. This is called after onStop and before onDestroy. It is called regardless of whether onCreateView returned a non-null view. Internally it is called after the view's state has been saved but before it has been removed from its parent.

onLoadDocumentError

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
open fun onLoadDocumentError(error: Throwable): Unit

Invoked when a problem arises during the loading process of the PDF document. This callback provides details about the encountered error, allowing for appropriate error handling and user notification.

Note that this callback is dispatched only when the fragment is fully created and not yet destroyed, i.e., after [onCreate] has fully run and before [onDestroy] runs, and only on the main thread.

Parameters
error: Throwable

Throwable that occurred during document loading.

onLoadDocumentSuccess

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
open fun onLoadDocumentSuccess(): Unit

Invoked when the document has been fully loaded, processed, and the initial pages are displayed within the viewing area. This callback signifies that the document is ready for user interaction.

Note that this callback is dispatched only when the fragment is fully created and not yet destroyed, i.e., after [onCreate] has fully run and before [onDestroy] runs, and only on the main thread.

onRequestImmersiveMode

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
open fun onRequestImmersiveMode(enterImmersive: Boolean): Unit

Called when the PDF view wants to enter or exit immersive mode based on user's interaction with the content. Apps would typically hide their top bar or other navigational interface when in immersive mode. The default implementation keeps toolbox visibility in sync with the enterImmersive mode. It is recommended that apps keep this behaviour by calling super.onRequestImmersiveMode while overriding this method.

Parameters
enterImmersive: Boolean

true to enter immersive mode, false to exit.

onResume

open fun onResume(): Unit

Called when the fragment is visible to the user and actively running. This is generally tied to Activity.onResume of the containing Activity's lifecycle.

onSaveInstanceState

open fun onSaveInstanceState(outState: Bundle): Unit

Called to ask the fragment to save its current dynamic state, so it can later be reconstructed in a new instance if its process is restarted. If a new instance of the fragment later needs to be created, the data you place in the Bundle here will be available in the Bundle given to onCreate, onCreateView, and onViewCreated.

This corresponds to Activity.onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) and most of the discussion there applies here as well. Note however: this method may be called at any time before onDestroy. There are many situations where a fragment may be mostly torn down (such as when placed on the back stack with no UI showing), but its state will not be saved until its owning activity actually needs to save its state.

Parameters
outState: Bundle

Bundle in which to place your saved state.

onStart

open fun onStart(): Unit

Called when the Fragment is visible to the user. This is generally tied to Activity.onStart of the containing Activity's lifecycle.

onStop

open fun onStop(): Unit

Called when the Fragment is no longer started. This is generally tied to Activity.onStop of the containing Activity's lifecycle.

onViewCreated

open fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): Unit

Called immediately after onCreateView has returned, but before any saved state has been restored in to the view. This gives subclasses a chance to initialize themselves once they know their view hierarchy has been completely created. The fragment's view hierarchy is not however attached to its parent at this point.

Parameters
view: View

The View returned by onCreateView.

savedInstanceState: Bundle?

If non-null, this fragment is being re-constructed from a previous saved state as given here.

Public properties

documentUri

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
var documentUriUri?

The URI of the PDF document to display defaulting to null.

When this property is set, the fragment begins loading the PDF document. A visual indicator is displayed while the document is being loaded. Once the loading is fully completed, the onLoadDocumentSuccess callback is invoked. If an error occurs during the loading phase, the onLoadDocumentError callback is invoked with the exception.

Note: This property is recommended to be set when the fragment is in the started state.

isTextSearchActive

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
var isTextSearchActiveBoolean

Controls whether text search mode is active. Defaults to false.

When text search mode is activated, the search menu becomes visible, and search functionality is enabled. Deactivating text search mode hides the search menu, clears search results, and removes any search-related highlights.

Note: This property should only be set once fragment is in the started state. Updating it before will trigger an [IllegalStateException] which will be delivered through [onLoadDocumentError] to host.

isToolboxVisible

Added in 1.0.0-alpha04
var isToolboxVisibleBoolean

Indicates whether the toolbox should be visible.

The host app can control this property to show/hide the toolbox based on its state and the onRequestImmersiveMode callback. The setter updates the UI elements within the fragment accordingly.
