Here's an example of basic usage:

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import PdfViewer from 'verapdf-js-viewer';

function MyApp() {
  const [numPages, setNumPages] = useState(null);
  const [pageNumber, setPageNumber] = useState(1);

  function onDocumentLoadSuccess({ numPages }) {
    setNumPages(numPages);
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <PdfViewer
        file="somefile.pdf"
        onLoadSuccess={onDocumentLoadSuccess}
      />
      <p>Page {pageNumber} of {numPages}</p>

Input parameters

Prop name	Description	Default value	Example values
Document props
className	Class name(s) that will be added to rendered element.	n/a	"custom-class-name-1 custom-class-name-2"
file	What PDF should be displayed. Its value can be an URL, a file (imported using import ... from ... or from file input form element), or an object with parameters (url - URL; data - data, preferably Uint8Array; range - PDFDataRangeTransport; httpHeaders - custom request headers, e.g. for authorization), withCredentials - a boolean to indicate whether or not to include cookies in the request (defaults to false). Warning: Since equality check (===) is used to determine if file object has changed, it must be memoized by setting it in component's state, useMemo or other similar technique.	n/a	URL: "http://example.com/sample.pdf" File: import sample from '../static/sample.pdf' and then sample Parameter object: { url: 'http://example.com/sample.pdf', httpHeaders: { 'X-CustomHeader': '40359820958024350238508234' }, withCredentials: true }
bboxes	Array of bboxes [ {location, groupId, bboxTitle, isVisible} ] that will be rendered as selectable rectangles over pdf pages. isVisible is an optional flag that specifies whether bbox should be shown on the canvas (default value: true). Bboxes can be grouped by optional parameter groupId. If error's check has 3rd item (2nd index) of errorArguments, it can be grouped with other checks with the same id from check.errorArguments[2] ('${clause}-${testNumber}-${check.errorArguments[2]}' => 4.1.2-9-79) bboxTitle is an optional parameter that is set to title and aria-describedby bounding box attributes. Currently support these locations: JSON string of bbox object: {"bbox":[{"p":1,"rect":[x,y,x2,y2]}]} String with coordinates for left-bottom point and top-right:pages[1-2]/boundingBox[x,y,x2,y2] String path through tagged structure tree: root/document[0]/pages[1](1 0 obj PDPage)/annots[1](100 0 obj PDLinkAnnot) String path to glyph in page stream: root/document[0]/pages[0](14 0 obj PDPage)/contentStream[0](20 0 obj PDSemanticContentStream)/operators[6]/usedGlyphs[5](OPCPIB+TimesNewRomanPSMT OPCPIB+TimesNewRomanPSMT 32 0 56991387 0) New contexts will be added.	n/a	[{ groupId: '4.1.2-9-79', location: 'pages[2-4]/boundingBox[10,200,300,400]' }]
activeBboxIndex	Index of active bbox from bboxes array	n/a	0
activeBboxId	Id of active tree bbox	n/a	"0:3:11:0"
showAllPages	Boolean flag to show pdf with all pages with scroll or single page	false	true
isTreeBboxesVisible	Boolean flag to show tree bboxes	false	true
error	What the component should display in case of an error.	"Failed to load PDF file."	String: "An error occurred!" React element: <div>An error occurred!</div> Function: this.renderError
treeBboxSelectionMode	String that determines how tree bboxes are highlighted: The value "SELECTED" selects only the current bbox The value "SELECTED_WITH_KIDS" selects the current bbox and all child bboxes	"SELECTED"	One of the following values: "SELECTED" "SELECTED_WITH_KIDS"
externalLinkTarget	Link target for external links rendered in annotations.	unset, which means that default behavior will be used	One of valid values for target attribute. "_self" "_blank" "_parent" "_top"
loading	What the component should display while loading.	"Loading PDF…"	String: "Please wait!" React element: <div>Please wait!</div> Function: this.renderLoader
noData	What the component should display in case of no data.	"No PDF file specified."	String: "Please select a file." React element: <div>Please select a file.</div> Function: this.renderNoData
rotate	Rotation of the document in degrees. If provided, will change rotation globally, even for the pages which were given rotate prop of their own. 90 = rotated to the right, 180 = upside down, 270 = rotated to the left.	n/a	90
onLoadSuccess	Function called when the document is successfully loaded.	n/a	(pdf) => alert('Loaded a file with ' + pdf.numPages + ' pages!')
onLoadError	Function called in case of an error while loading a document.	n/a	(error) => alert('Error while loading document! ' + error.message)

onBboxClick	Function called when an bbox item has been clicked.	n/a	(bboxData) => alert('Selected bbox from ' + bboxData.page + ' page!')
onPageChange	Function called when page changed during scrolling	n/a	(page: number) => alert('New page ' + page);
onWarning	Function called in case of a warning for the selected bounding box. The warning is described by the code from the list: BBOX_OUT_OF_THE_PAGE_VIEWPORT (selected bounding box is out of the page viewport)	n/a	(warningCode: string) => alert('Warning: ' + warningCode);
Page props
