I'm using ngx-extended-pdf-viewer ( npm ) to render a PDF and it works when i set directly the path+fileName, as below:
<ngx-extended-pdf-viewer [src]="'assets/example.pdf'"
[showPrintButton]="false" [showBookmarkButton]="false"
[showOpenFileButton]="false"
[showSidebarOnLoad]="false"
[showSidebarButton]="true"
delayFirstView="6000" useBrowserLocale="false">
</ngx-extended-pdf-viewer>
I'd like to create a variable in .TS and binding it in [src] like below:
Typescript
...
ngOnInit() {
this.filePathAndName = "'assets/example.pdf'";
...
HTML
<ngx-extended-pdf-viewer [src]="{{filePathAndName}}"
[showPrintButton]="false" [showBookmarkButton]="false"
[showOpenFileButton]="false"
[showSidebarOnLoad]="false"
[showSidebarButton]="true"
delayFirstView="6000" useBrowserLocale="false">
</ngx-extended-pdf-viewer>
But It doesn't work.
The major problem is the [src] needs to have the two symbols: Quotation marks ( " ) following by Apostrophe ( ' ) ... " ' path+name ' " (without the spaces)
My question is : How can I put a valid value in a variable in Typescript to render properly in HTML in this specific scenario ?
It doesn't need those quotation marks. Those are only for literal string bindings. Try this:
this.filePathAndName = "assets/example.pdf";
<ngx-extended-pdf-viewer *ngIf="filePathAndName" [src]="filePathAndName"
