PdfViewPager

Android widget to display PDF documents in your Activities or Fragments.

Important note: PDFViewPager uses PdfRenderer class, which works only on API 21 or later. See PDFRenderer documentation.

If you are targeting pre-Lollipop devices, have a look at the legacy sample

Installation

Add these lines to your global build.gradle file

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven{
            url 'https://dl.bintray.com/voghdev/maven/'
        }
    }
    // ... rest of your file
}

(hopefully, the previous lines won't be necessary in the future)

And in your app/build.gradle

compile 'es.voghdev.pdfviewpager:library:0.1.2'

Usage - Remote PDF's

Use RemotePDFViewPager to load from remote URLs

1.- Add INTERNET, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions on your AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

2.- Make your Activity or Fragment implement DownloadFile.Listener

public class RemotePDFActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements DownloadFile.Listener {

3.- Create a RemotePDFViewPager object

RemotePDFViewPager remotePDFViewPager =
      new RemotePDFViewPager(context, "http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/xml/AdobeXMLFormsSamples.pdf", this);

4.- Configure the corresponding callbacks and they will be called on each situation.

@Override
public void onSuccess(String url, String destinationPath) {
    // That's the positive case. PDF Download went fine

    adapter = new PDFPagerAdapter(this, "AdobeXMLFormsSamples.pdf");
    remotePDFViewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
    setContentView(remotePDFViewPager);
}

@Override
public void onFailure(Exception e) {
    // This will be called if download fails
}

@Override
public void onProgressUpdate(int progress, int total) {
    // You will get download progress here
    // Always on UI Thread so feel free to update your views here
}

5.- Don't forget to close adapter in onDestroy to release all resources

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
    super.onDestroy();

    adapter.close();
}

Usage - Local PDF's

Use PDFViewPager class to load PDF from assets

1.- Copy your assets to cache directory (lib will do that for you in future versions)

CopyAsset copyAsset = new CopyAssetThreadImpl(context, new Handler());
copyAsset.copy(asset, new File(getCacheDir(), "sample.pdf").getAbsolutePath());

2.- Create your PDFViewPager passing your PDF file, located in assets (see sample)

pdfViewPager = new PDFViewPager(this, "sample.pdf");

2b.- Or directly, declare it on your XML layout

<es.voghdev.pdfviewpager.library.PDFViewPager
    android:id="@+id/pdfViewPager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    app:assetFileName="sample.pdf"/>

3.- Release adapter in onDestroy

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
    super.onDestroy();

    ((PDFPagerAdapter)pdfViewPager.getAdapter()).close();
}

Usage - PDF's on SD card

Use PDFViewPager class to load PDF from your SD card

1.- Create a PDFViewPager object, passing the file location in your SD card

PDFViewPager pdfViewPager = new PDFViewPager(context, getPdfPathOnSDCard());

protected String getPdfPathOnSDCard() {
    File f = new File(getExternalFilesDir("pdf"), "adobe.pdf");
    return f.getAbsolutePath();
}

TODOs

Load PDF documents from SD card
Make PDF documents zoomable with pinch and double tap
Unify all features in only one PDFViewPager class
Support API Levels under 21, by downloading PDF and invoking system native intent.
UI tests
