Still being maintained?

I've just started using this on a project and it works pretty well, I'm just wondering if it's still being maintained? It currently breaks at pdf.js version 2.0.419 and later. Producing the error:

pdf.js is not loaded. Please include it before pdfThumbnails.js.

Hi, thanks for your interest. It's a really small project and I don't really need to maintain it unless there is something broken... I did not test it with pdf.js 2+, will have a look.

About your error, do you have both files pdf.js and pdf.worker.js in the same directory, and do you load the pdf.js file in your html page ?

Hey Scandel,
Ahh yeah I did wonder since I'd not seen any other issues listed.

I'm not using the worker.js as it seemed to be working fine without it, should I still be using it? Up to version 2.0.402 seems to be working fine, it's just any after that that breaks.

Yes, please try to use the worker.

Hmmm so I added the worker for the 2.4.402 version and it seemed to make no difference. I changed the versions to the latest and it again produced the error mentioned above.
if (typeof PDFJS === 'undefined') {

My guess is they've changed PDFJS at some point so now it consistently returns undefined

Having the same issue.

Though I got it to work with pdfjs-1.10.100-dist.

Now works with PDFJS 2.0+ !

Great! Thanks! Are there any noticeable changes?
