I have functionality that searches for a list of terms in a document when the document is loaded to display the occurrences in a custom panel.
The code is triggered in when the loadDocument promise resolves.
I have found that this can provide incomplete results on my sample document ( 20 page pdf ) when the call is made immediately on loadDocument completing.
BUT if i call the countTerms after a delay: i.e. setTimeout(() => {countTerms();}, 2000);
then I get the correct number found for each term.
Is the document still being processed even though LoadDocument has resolved?
Is there another event I can hook into to trigger this logic?
Cut down version of code ( React based )
viewer.current
.loadDocument(url, {
extension: “pdf”,
useDownloader: false,
customHeaders: authHeader(),
})
.then(() => {
if (viewInstance.current) {
viewInstance.current.setFitMode(viewInstance.current.FitMode.FitWidth);
countTerms(); // this will do an api call to load the terms, then calls code to search for each of these terms as below…
}
})
const mode = getSearchMode(term, instance);
const results: ResultsMap = {};
let currPage = 0;
let pageOccurrence = 0;
const searchOptions = {
// search of the entire document will be performed.
fullSearch: true,
startPage: 1,
// The callback function that is called when the search returns a result.
onResult: (result: any) => {
if (result) {
if (!results[term.term]) {
results[term.term] = [];
}
if (currPage != result.pageNum) {
pageOccurrence = 0;
currPage = result.pageNum;
}
pageOccurrence++;
results[term.term].push({
term: result.resultStr,
ambient: result.ambientStr,
start: result.resultStrStart,
end: result.resultStrEnd,
pageNo: result.pageNum,
searchResult: result,
pageOccurrence: pageOccurrence,
});
}
term.count++;
},
onDocumentEnd: () => {
// add an entry if no results for this term so we know we've searched for it
if (!results[term.term]) {
results[term.term] = [];
}
resolve(results);
},
};
instance.docViewer.textSearchInit(term.term, mode, searchOptions);
