What should be the value for `workerSrc`?

Link to PDF file (or attach file here):

Configuration:

• Web browser and its version: Chrome 57.0.2987.133
• Operating system and its version: OSX 10.11.6
• PDF.js version: 1.7.365
• Is an extension: bundled via webpack 2.2.1

I tried to follow the documentation for webpack but it’s not working (keep getting setting up fake worker), probably due to me not understanding what exactly should go into workerSrc.

Is workerSrc:

• a URL that’ll get resolved by the browser? e.g. PDFJS.workerSrc = '/pdf.worker.js';
• a Node require spec that’ll get resolved and bundled into the same file via webpack & node? e.g. PDFJS.workerSrc = 'pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.js';
• a relative path that’ll get resolved and bundled into the same file via webpack & node? e.g. PDFJS.workerSrc = '../../node_modules/pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.js';
• something else?

Thanks for any pointers.

Try this:

  const pdfjs = await import('pdfjs-dist/build/pdf');
  const pdfjsWorker = await import('pdfjs-dist/build/pdf.worker.entry');

  pdfjs.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc = pdfjsWorker;

I use Pdfjs v2.8.335 with legacy supporting in this way:

import * as pdfjsLib from ‘pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf’ import PDFJSWorker from ‘pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf.worker.entry’

pdfjsLib.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc = PDFJSWorker
