package is only working in debug mode

[alexaung]

pdf view is only show in debug mode and need to always run the "react-native start" command.

If I stop or unplug, viewer is only showing loading indicator. I am reading the file from project folder.

<Pdf ref={(pdf)=>{this.pdf = pdf;}} source={require("dicalaws/pdf/en/0.pdf")} page={1} horizontal={false} onLoadComplete={(pageCount)=>{ this.setState({pageCount: pageCount}); console.log(total page count: ${pageCount}); }} onPageChanged={(page,pageCount)=>{ this.setState({page:page}); console.log(current page: ${page});}} style={styles.pdf}/>

In my example, I did not add release compile option.
Release version need signature.
you can see the following link to add it.
Android: http://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/signed-apk-android.html

In react-native debug mode, resources(js, image, etc.) is loaded from nodejs server (react-native start), not really from app internal. so if you run on debug, you need run react-native start first.

actually, my app is already added signature but it is not working in bath installRelease and assemblyRelease.

It is working now. For local file view, can't use require but following line will solved the issue.

let source = {uri:'file:///'+this.state.filepath,cache:true};

thanks for this package. it is better than react-native-pdf-view.

Hi Alexaung,

Thanks for your feedback.

You are right, source={require("dicalaws/pdf/en/0.pdf")} does not action when run in android release version.
I had add source={uri:"bundle-assets://xxx.pdf"} method to support access local assets file.
You can try it again.
More details please see readme file.
