Simple iOS PDF viewer for Cordova

Description

Sure, you can find a handful of iOS PDF viewers but none of them is simple. The closest thing you can get to simple is loading documents using the InAppBrowser plugin, however, the InAppBrowser plugin won’t let you share/export documents, but this plugin will.

At the moment, this plugin only supports iOS devices but we plan to extend it shortly and add support for Android devices as well.

Install

We assume you have a current installation of Cordova or Ionic or PhoneGap—you know how it is.

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-simple-pdf

How easy was that?

Usage

This plugin doesn’t include a JavaScript module file for now, so if you want to use it, you will have to launch your PDF using the following command:

cordova.exec( function(res){
	// Success callback
}, function(err){
	// Error callback
}, 'SimplePDF', 'showPDF', [ {path}, {title} ] );

Don’t forget to replace {path} and {title}.
