Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Consider using a WebView or WebBrowser to quickly display a PDF in your app. Read the alternatives section to learn more.

Config plugin to auto-configure react-native-pdf when the native code is generated (npx expo prebuild).

Versioning

Ensure you use versions that work together!

| expo | react-native-pdf | @config-plugins/react-native-pdf | | ------ | ------------------ | ---------------------------------- | | 52.0.0 | 6.7.6 | 9.0.0 | | 51.0.0 | 6.7.5 | 8.0.0 | | 50.0.0 | 6.7.4 | 7.0.0 | | 49.0.0 | 6.7.1 | 6.0.0 | | 48.0.0 | 6.6.2 | 5.0.0 |

Add the package to your npm dependencies

This package cannot be used in the "Expo Go" app because it requires custom native code.

First install the package with yarn, npm, or npx expo install.

npx expo install react-native-pdf react-native-blob-util @config-plugins/react-native-pdf @config-plugins/react-native-blob-util

After installing this npm package, add the config plugin to the plugins array of your app.json or app.config.js:

{
  "plugins": [
    "@config-plugins/react-native-blob-util",
    "@config-plugins/react-native-pdf"
  ]
}

Next, rebuild your app as described in the "Adding custom native code" guide.

Alternatives

Consider opening a WebBrowser to display a PDF:

import * as WebBrowser from "expo-web-browser";
import { Text } from "react-native";

export default function HomeScreen() {
  return (
    <Text
      onPress={() => {
        WebBrowser.openBrowserAsync(
          "https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf"
        );
      }}
    >
      Open in-app browser
    </Text>
  );
}

Or inside a WebView for a contained view:

import { WebView } from "react-native-webview";

export default function HomeScreen() {
  return (
    <WebView
      style={{ width: 100, height: 100 }}
      source={{
        uri: "https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf",
      }}
    />
  );
}

Alternatively, if users have a favorite PDF viewer app than consider using Share API to let users open the PDF in their preferred app. This is akin to how UIDocumentInteractionController is intended to be used on iOS.

Finally, you could use DOM Components for a custom web experience.
