## Details
### Integrating with DocumentList component
Below is the most simple integration of Viewer and DocumentList components within your custom component:
```html
<adf-document-list
currentFolderId="-my-"
(preview)="showPreview($event)">
</adf-document-list>
<adf-viewer
[(showViewer)]="showViewer"
[overlayMode]="true"
[fileNodeId]="nodeId">
</adf-viewer>
```
And the component controller class implementation can look like the following:
```ts
export class OverlayViewerComponent {
@Input()
showViewer: boolean = false;
nodeId: string;
showPreview(event) {
if (event.value.entry.isFile) {
this.nodeId = event.value.entry.id;
this.showViewer = true;
}
}
}
```
### Custom file parameters
You can provide custom file parameters, for example a value for the `mimeType` or `displayName` when using URL values that have no file names or extensions:
```html
<adf-viewer
[displayName]="fileName"
[allowGoBack]="false"
[mimeType]="mimeType"
[urlFile]="fileUrl">
</adf-viewer>
```
### Supported file formats
The Viewer component consists of separate Views that handle particular types of type families based on either a file extension or a mime type:
- PDF View
- application/pdf
- \*.pdf
- Image View
- image/png
- image/jpeg
- image/gif
- image/bmp
- image/svg+xml
- \*.png
- \*.jpg
- \*.jpeg
- \*.gif
- \*.bpm
- \*.svg
- Text View
- text/plain
- text/csv
- text/xml
- text/html
- application/x-javascript
- \*.txt
- \*.xml
- \*.js
- \*.html
- \*.json
- \*.ts
- Media View
- video/mp4
- video/webm
- video/ogg
- audio/mpeg
- audio/ogg
- audio/wav
- \*.wav
- \*.mp4
- \*.mp3
- \*.webm
- \*.ogg
### Content Renditions
For those extensions and mime types that cannot be natively displayed in the browser, the Viewer will try to fetch corresponding rendition by utilising the [renditions service api](https://community.alfresco.com/docs/DOC-5879-rendition-service).
For the full list of supported types please refer to: [File types that support preview and thumbnail generation](http://docs.alfresco.com/5.2/references/valid-transformations-preview.html).
### Configuring PDF.js library
In order to configure your webpack-enabled application with the PDF.js library please follow the next steps.
Install pdfjs-dist
```sh
npm install pdfjs-dist
```
Update `vendors.ts` by appending the following:
```ts
// PDF.js
require('pdfjs-dist/web/compatibility.js');
const pdfjsLib = require('pdfjs-dist');
pdfjsLib.PDFJS.workerSrc = './pdf.worker.js';
require('pdfjs-dist/web/pdf_viewer.js');
```
The code above enables the "viewer" component and "compatibility" mode for all the browsers.
It also configures the web worker for PDF.js library to render PDF files in the background.
Update the `plugins` section of the `webpack.common.js` file with the next lines:
```js
new CopyWebpackPlugin([
...
{
from: 'node_modules/pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.js',
to: 'pdf.worker.js'
}
])
```
The Viewer component now should be able displaying PDF files.
### Custom toolbar
You can replace standard viewer toolbar with your custom implementation.
```html
<adf-viewer>
<adf-viewer-toolbar>
<h1>toolbar</h1>
</adf-viewer-toolbar>
</adf-viewer>
```
Everything you put inside the "adf-viewer-toolbar" tags is going to be rendered instead of the toolbar.
### Custom toolbar buttons
If you are okay with the custom toolbar behaviour but want to add some extra buttons,
you can do that like in the following example:
```html
<adf-viewer>
<adf-viewer-toolbar-actions>
<button mat-icon-button>
<mat-icon>alarm</mat-icon>
</button>
<button mat-icon-button>
<mat-icon>backup</mat-icon>
</button>
<button mat-icon-button>
<mat-icon>bug_report</mat-icon>
</button>
</adf-viewer-toolbar-actions>
</adf-viewer>
```
You should now see the following result at runtime:
![Custom Toolbar Actions](docassets/images/viewer-toolbar-actions.png)
### Custom sidebar
The Viewer component also supports custom sidebar components and layouts.
The `allowSidebar` property should be set to `true` to enable this feature.
Custom sidebar for the viewer can be injected in two different ways:
- using transclusion
- using template **(only works when using the viewer with fileNodeId)**
#### Using transclusion
```html
<adf-viewer [allowSidebar]="true">
<adf-viewer-sidebar>
<h1>My info</h1>
</adf-viewer-sidebar>
</adf-viewer>
```
Everything you put inside the "adf-viewer-sidebar" tags is going to be rendered.
#### Using template injection (only works when using the viewer with fileNodeId)
```html
<ng-template let-node="node" #sidebarTemplate>
<adf-content-metadata-card [node]="node"></adf-content-metadata-card>
</ng-template>
<adf-viewer [allowSidebar]="true" [sidebarTemplate]="sidebarTemplate"></adf-viewer>
```
### Custom thumbnails
By default, the pdf viewer comes with its own thumbnails list but this can be replaced
by providing a custom template and binding to context property `viewer` to access PDFJS.PDFViewer
instance.
![PDF thumbnails](docassets/images/pdf-thumbnails.png)
#### Using template injection
```javascript
import { Component, Input } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'custom-thumbnails',
template: '<p> Custom Thumbnails Component </p>'
})
export class CustomThumbnailsComponent {
@Input() pdfViewer: any;
...
}
```
```html
<ng-template #customThumbnailsTemplate let-pdfViewer="viewer">
<custom-thumbnails [pdfViewer]="pdfViewer"></custom-thumbnails>
</ng-template>
<adf-viewer [thumbnailsTemplate]="customThumbnailsTemplate"></adf-viewer>
```
### Custom "Open With" menu
You can enable custom "Open With" menu by providing at least one action inside the "adf-viewer-open-with" tag:
```html
<adf-viewer [fileNodeId]="nodeId">
<adf-viewer-open-with>
<button mat-menu-item>
<mat-icon>dialpad</mat-icon>
<span>Option 1</span>
</button>
<button mat-menu-item disabled>
<mat-icon>voicemail</mat-icon>
<span>Option 2</span>
</button>
<button mat-menu-item>
<mat-icon>notifications_off</mat-icon>
<span>Option 3</span>
</button>
</adf-viewer-open-with>
</adf-viewer>
```
![Open with](docassets/images/viewer-open-with.png)
### Custom "More actions" menu
You can enable custom "More actions" menu by providing at least one action inside the "adf-viewer-more-actions" tag:
```html
<adf-viewer [fileNodeId]="nodeId">
<adf-viewer-more-actions>
<button mat-menu-item>
<mat-icon>dialpad</mat-icon>
<span>Action One</span>
</button>
<button mat-menu-item disabled>
<mat-icon>voicemail</mat-icon>
<span>Action Two</span>
</button>
<button mat-menu-item>
<mat-icon>notifications_off</mat-icon>
<span>Action Three</span>
</button>
</adf-viewer-more-actions>
</adv-viewer>
```
![More actions](docassets/images/viewer-more-actions.png)
### Extending the Viewer
If you want to handle other file formats that are not yet supported by the Viewer component,
you can define your own custom handler.
Below you can find an example with the use of `adf-viewer-extension` if you can handle 3d files
```html
<adf-viewer [fileNodeId]="fileNodeId">
<adf-viewer-extension [supportedExtensions]="['obj','3ds']" #extension>
<ng-template let-urlFileContent="urlFileContent" let-extension="extension">
<threed-viewer
[urlFile]="urlFileContent"
[extension]="extension">
</threed-viewer>
</ng-template>
</adf-viewer-extension>
</adf-viewer>
```
Note: you need adding `ng2-3d-editor` dependency to your `package.json` file to make the example above work.
It is possible to define multiple `adf-viewer-extension` templates:
```html
<adf-viewer [fileNodeId]="fileNodeId">
<adf-viewer-extension [supportedExtensions]="['xls','xlsx']" #extension>
<ng-template let-urlFileContent="urlFileContent">
<my-custom-xls-component
urlFileContent="urlFileContent">
</my-custom-xls-component>
</ng-template>
</adf-viewer-extension>
<adf-viewer-extension [supportedExtensions]="['txt']" #extension>
<ng-template let-urlFileContent="urlFileContent" >
<my-custom-txt-component
urlFileContent="urlFileContent">
</my-custom-txt-component>
</ng-template>
</adf-viewer-extension>
</adf-viewer>
```
