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 🙏

📰 MuPDF.js

This is a port of MuPDF to javascript and webassembly, giving you the following:

  • 🔥 Blazing fast rendering of PDFs to PNG, SVG and even HTML
  • 💼 Run in the web browser or your server. Basically any platform that supports Webassembly!
  • ☑ Supports Typescript
  • 🗺️ A super simple API that's also completely flexible, see below...

🏁 Getting Started

yarn add mupdf-js
# or
npm i mupdf-js

Basic Usage

Before you do any processing, you'll need to initialise the MuPdf library:

import { createMuPdf } from "mupdf-js";

async function handleSomePdf(file: File) {
  const mupdf = await createMuPdf();
  
  //...
}

In the browser, you'll most likely retrieve a File or Blob object from an html <input type="file"> tag, supplied by a user.

You'll need to convert the file firstly to an ArrayBuffer, then to a Uint8Array:

import { createMuPdf } from "mupdf-js";

async function handleSomePdf(file) {
  const mupdf = await createMuPdf();
  const buf = await file.arrayBuffer();
  const arrayBuf = new Uint8Array(buf);
  
  //...
}

Once you have this, you can load the file into the MuPdf environment, creating a MuPdf document:

import { createMuPdf } from "mupdf-js";

async function handleSomePdf(file) {
  const mupdf = await createMuPdf();
  const buf = await file.arrayBuffer();
  const arrayBuf = new Uint8Array(buf);
  const doc = mupdf.load(arrayBuf);
}

You now have three different options to render the PDF document:

import { createMuPdf } from "mupdf-js";

async function handleSomePdf(file) {
  const mupdf = await createMuPdf();
  const buf = await file.arrayBuffer();
  const arrayBuf = new Uint8Array(buf);
  const doc = mupdf.load(arrayBuf);
  
  // Each of these returns a string:
  
  const png = mupdf.drawPageAsPNG(doc, 1, 300);
  const svg = mupdf.drawPageAsSVG(doc, 1);
  const html = mupdf.drawPageAsHTML(doc, 1);
}

Conversion Options

PNG

mupdf.drawPageAsPNG(document, page, resolution);

Arguments:

  • document: a MuPdf document object
  • page: the page number to be rendered, starting from 1
  • resolution: the DPI to use for rendering the file

Returns: an uncompressed PNG image, encoded as a base64 data URI.

SVG

mupdf.drawPageAsSVG(document, page);

Arguments:

  • document: a MuPdf document object
  • page: the page number to be rendered, starting from 1

Returns: an SVG file with the PDF document rendered as image tiles.

HTML

mupdf.drawPageAsHTML(document, page);

Arguments:

  • document: a MuPdf document object
  • page: the page number to be rendered, starting from 1

Returns: an HTML file that uses absolute positioned elements for layout.

Text operations

Get text from page

mupdf.getPageText(document, page);

Arguments:

  • document: a MuPdf document object
  • page: the page number to be rendered, starting from 1

Returns: string containing all text collected from page

Search on the page

mupdf.searchPageText(document, page, searchString, maxHits);

Arguments:

  • document: a MuPdf document object
  • page: the page number to be rendered, starting from 1
  • searchString: string to search
  • maxHits: the maximum possible number of matches (it stops search when reaches this limit)

Returns: array of found rectangles of text matches ({x: number, y: number, w: number, h: number}[])

You should set maxHits to an appropriate level that a user would expect (for example 100), or allow users to set their own limit. Alternatively, if you want to allow effectively unlimited search hits (and risk running out of memory), you can set it to C's maximum unsigned 32-bit integer size, which is 4294967295.
