getDocument is not a function

Hi guys, we love PDFJS here. It has been working great for awhile, but we’re upgrading all our js libraries and I just upgraded to the newest version yesterday.

Now I’m stuck.

I’m getting an error “PDFJS.getDocument is not a function”. I’ve tried setting the worker path and disabling the worker as suggested in other issues and neither helps. I’d rather not disable the worker if i don’t have to.

here is the failing code.

function load() {
	PDFJS.disableWorker = true;
	// Load PDFs one after another
	PDFJS.getDocument(urls[loadedCount]).then(function ( pdfDoc_ ) {
		pdfDocs = [];
		pdfDocs.push( pdfDoc_);
		totalPageCount = getTotalPageCount();
		form_item_input_div.append( $('<div id="page_container_'+ loadedCount +'"></div>').hide() );
		renderPage( 1 );
	}).catch( function (resp) {
		form_item_input_div.html($('<span type="text" class="t-text"/>').text( $.i18n._('ERROR: Unable to preview document...') ));
	} );
}

It’s probably worth mentioning that the documentation should have a section covering how to use pdfjs with require as digging through issues that are years old is not super helpful.

Where can i find an example of the latest code being used with require?

I don’t understand this question. require() is not a native JavaScript API method and shall be used in some context (with webpack or node.js).

Examples can be found at https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/tree/master/examples . You might need to check webpack or node examples.

Closing as answered.
