I've created this demo:
http://polishwords.com.pl/dev/pdfjs/test.html
It displays one page. I would like to display all pages. One below another, or place some buttons to change page or even better load all standard controls of PDF.JS like in Firefox. How to acomplish this?
PDFJS has a member variable numPages, so you'd just iterate through them. BUT it's important to remember that getting a page in pdf.js is asynchronous, so the order wouldn't be guaranteed. So you'd need to chain them. You could do something along these lines:
var currPage = 1; //Pages are 1-based not 0-based
var numPages = 0;
var thePDF = null;
//This is where you start
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(function(pdf) {
//Set PDFJS global object (so we can easily access in our page functions
thePDF = pdf;
//How many pages it has
numPages = pdf.numPages;
//Start with first page
pdf.getPage( 1 ).then( handlePages );
});
function handlePages(page)
{
//This gives us the page's dimensions at full scale
var viewport = page.getViewport( 1 );
//We'll create a canvas for each page to draw it on
var canvas = document.createElement( "canvas" );
canvas.style.display = "block";
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
canvas.height = viewport.height;
canvas.width = viewport.width;
//Draw it on the canvas
page.render({canvasContext: context, viewport: viewport});
//Add it to the web page
document.body.appendChild( canvas );
//Move to next page
currPage++;
if ( thePDF !== null && currPage <= numPages )
{
thePDF.getPage( currPage ).then( handlePages );
}
}
Here's my take. Renders all pages in correct order and still works asynchronously.
<style>
#pdf-viewer {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
overflow: auto;
}
.pdf-page-canvas {
display: block;
margin: 5px auto;
border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}

<script>
url = 'https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/test/pdfs/tracemonkey.pdf';
var thePdf = null;
var scale = 1;
PDFJS.getDocument(url).promise.then(function(pdf) {
thePdf = pdf;
viewer = document.getElementById('pdf-viewer');
for(page = 1; page <= pdf.numPages; page++) {
canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.className = 'pdf-page-canvas';
viewer.appendChild(canvas);
renderPage(page, canvas);
}
});
function renderPage(pageNumber, canvas) {
thePdf.getPage(pageNumber).then(function(page) {
viewport = page.getViewport({ scale: scale });
canvas.height = viewport.height;
canvas.width = viewport.width;
page.render({canvasContext: canvas.getContext('2d'), viewport: viewport});
});
}

<div id='pdf-viewer'></div>
The pdfjs-dist library contains parts for building PDF viewer. You can use PDFPageView to render all pages. Based on https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/examples/components/pageviewer.html :
var url = "https://cdn.mozilla.net/pdfjs/tracemonkey.pdf";
var container = document.getElementById('container');
// Load document
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(function (doc) {
var promise = Promise.resolve();
for (var i = 0; i < doc.numPages; i++) {
// One-by-one load pages
promise = promise.then(function (id) {
return doc.getPage(id + 1).then(function (pdfPage) {
// Add div with page view.
var SCALE = 1.0;
var pdfPageView = new PDFJS.PDFPageView({
container: container,
id: id,
scale: SCALE,
defaultViewport: pdfPage.getViewport(SCALE),
// We can enable text/annotations layers, if needed
textLayerFactory: new PDFJS.DefaultTextLayerFactory(),
annotationLayerFactory: new PDFJS.DefaultAnnotationLayerFactory()
});
// Associates the actual page with the view, and drawing it
pdfPageView.setPdfPage(pdfPage);
return pdfPageView.draw();
});
}.bind(null, i));
}
return promise;
});#container > *:not(:first-child) {
border-top: solid 1px black;

The following answer is a partial answer targeting anyone trying to get a PDF.js to display a whole PDF in 2019, as the api has changed significantly. This was of course the OP's primary concern. inspiration sample code

If you want to render all pages of pdf document in different canvases, all one by one synchronously this is kind of solution:
index.html
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>PDF Sample</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="pdf.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="main.js">
</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css">
</head>
<body id="body">
</body>
</html>
main.css
canvas {
display: block;
}
main.js
$(function() {
var filePath = "document.pdf";
function Num(num) {
var num = num;
return function () {
return num;
}
};
function renderPDF(url, canvasContainer, options) {
var options = options || {
scale: 1.5
},
func,
pdfDoc,
def = $.Deferred(),
promise = $.Deferred().resolve().promise(),
width,
height,
makeRunner = function(func, args) {
return function() {
return func.call(null, args);
};
};
function renderPage(num) {
var def = $.Deferred(),
currPageNum = new Num(num);
pdfDoc.getPage(currPageNum()).then(function(page) {
var viewport = page.getViewport(options.scale);
var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
var renderContext = {
canvasContext: ctx,
viewport: viewport
};
if(currPageNum() === 1) {
height = viewport.height;
width = viewport.width;
}
canvas.height = height;
canvas.width = width;
canvasContainer.appendChild(canvas);
page.render(renderContext).then(function() {
def.resolve();
});
})
return def.promise();
}
function renderPages(data) {
pdfDoc = data;
var pagesCount = pdfDoc.numPages;
for (var i = 1; i <= pagesCount; i++) {
func = renderPage;
promise = promise.then(makeRunner(func, i));
}
}
PDFJS.disableWorker = true;
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(renderPages);
};
var body = document.getElementById("body");
renderPDF(filePath, body);
});
First of all please be aware that doing this is really not a good idea; as explained in https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#allthepages
How to do it;
Use the viewer provided by mozilla; https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/web/viewer.html
modify BaseViewer class, _getVisiblePages() method in viewer.js to
/* load all pages */
_getVisiblePages() {
let visible = [];
let currentPage = this._pages[this._currentPageNumber - 1];
for (let i=0; i<this.pagesCount; i++){
let aPage = this._pages[i];
visible.push({ id: aPage.id, view: aPage, });
}
return { first: currentPage, last: currentPage, views: visible, };
}

<html>The accepted answer works perfectly for a single PDF. In my case there were multiple PDFs that I wanted to render all pages for in the same sequence of the array.
I adjusted the code so that the global variables are encapsulated in an object array as follows:
var docs = []; // Add this object array
var urls = []; // You would need an array of the URLs to start.
// Loop through each url. You will also need the index for later.
urls.forEach((url, ix) => {
//Get the document from the url.
PDFJS.getDocument(url).then(function(pdf) {
// Make new doc object and set the properties of the new document
var doc = {};
//Set PDFJS global object (so we can easily access in our page functions
doc.thePDF = pdf;
//How many pages it has
doc.numPages = pdf.numPages;
//Push the new document to the global object array
docs.push(doc);
//Start with first page -- pass through the index for the handlePages method
pdf.getPage( 1 ).then(page => handlePages(page, ix) );
});
});
function handlePages(page, ix)
{
//This gives us the page's dimensions at full scale
var viewport = page.getViewport( {scale: 1} );
//We'll create a canvas for each page to draw it on
var canvas = document.createElement( "canvas" );
canvas.style.display = "block";
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
canvas.height = viewport.viewBox[3];
canvas.width = viewport.viewBox[2];
//Draw it on the canvas
page.render({canvasContext: context, viewport: viewport});
//Add it to an element based on the index so each document is added to its own element
document.getElementById('doc-' + ix).appendChild( canvas );
//Move to next page using the correct doc object from the docs object array
docs[ix].currPage++;
if ( docs[ix].thePDF !== null && docs[ix].currPage <= docs[ix].numPages )
{
console.log("Rendering page " + docs[ix].currPage + " of document #" + ix);
docs[ix].thePDF.getPage( docs[ix].currPage ).then(newPage => handlePages(newPage, ix) );
}
}
Because the entire operation is asynchronous, without a unique object for each document, global variables of thePDF, currPage and numPages will be overwritten when subsequent PDFs are rendered, resulting in random pages being skipped, documents entirely skipped or pages from one document being appended to the wrong document.
One last point is that if this is being done offline or without using ES6 modules, the PDFJS.getDocument(url).then() method should change to pdfjsLib.getDocument(url).promise.then().
Make it to be iterate every page how much you want.
const url = '/storage/documents/reports/AR-2020-CCBI IND.pdf';
pdfjsLib.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc = '/vendor/pdfjs-dist-2.12.313/package/build/pdf.worker.js';
const loadingTask = pdfjsLib.getDocument({
url: url,
verbosity: 0
});
(async () => {
const pdf = await loadingTask.promise;
let numPages = await pdf.numPages;
if (numPages > 10) {
numPages = 10;
}
for (let i = 1; i <= numPages; i++) {
let page = await pdf.getPage(i);
let scale = 1.5;
let viewport = page.getViewport({ scale });
let outputScale = window.devicePixelRatio || 1;
let canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
let context = canvas.getContext("2d");
canvas.width = Math.floor(viewport.width * outputScale);
canvas.height = Math.floor(viewport.height * outputScale);
canvas.style.width = Math.floor(viewport.width) + "px";
canvas.style.height = Math.floor(viewport.height) + "px";
document.getElementById('canvas-column').appendChild(canvas);
let transform = outputScale !== 1
? [outputScale, 0, 0, outputScale, 0, 0]
: null;
let renderContext = {
canvasContext: context,
transform,
viewport
};
page.render(renderContext);
}
})();
If you want update your single page PDF Viewer to show all pages and scroll through all of them, these are my changes
I had to change a PDF viewer from showing a single page to showing the full set of pages and be scrollable, so I had the code already for showing the one page, and to show all the pages each page needed to have it's own canvas, and because I am creating my canvas using the useRef() hook, I couldn't just put it in a function that will loop and create a canvas when it was building the pdf pages to be viewed. This is the error I kept getting when I used that hook in a function:.
Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component. This could happen for one of the following reasons: 1. You might have mismatching versions of React and the renderer (such as React DOM) 2. You might be breaking the Rules of Hooks 3. You might have more than one copy of React in the same app See https://reactjs.org/link/invalid-hook-call for tips about how to debug and fix this problem.
Also, the other obstacle I had was when the const canvasRef = useRef(null) was created, the object looked like this when I needed it to be ready to hold page data: {current: null}. So there was a timing issue, I needed to have the DOM ready in that area of the react page before the canvasRef would blossom to a full canvas object, so I created a state hook to let me know when the DOM is ready, then kick off all the functions to render the pages for the PDF. Note, there was a renderPage function that took a pdfJs object, after my updates it took the pdfJs, the page number and the created canvas for that PDF page.
Here are my code snippets:
const canvasRef = useRef(null);
const canvasRefs: any[] = useMemo(() => {
const tempRefs: any[] = []
for(let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
tempRefs[i] = { ...canvasRef}
}
return tempRefs;
}, [])
useEffect(() => {
if (canvasRefs[0]?.current) {
setIsDomReady(true);
}
});
useEffect(() => {
if (isDomReady && pdfJs) {
for(let i = 0; i < numPages; i++) {
renderPage(pdfJs, canvasRefs[i].current, i+1);
}
}
}, [pdfJs, isDomReady]);
const renderPage = async (pdfJs, canvas, pgNumber) => { ...
