Show pdf from filesystem outside project directory

Support
#1

Hi,

I try to show a pdf inside Vaadin iframe.
The app is deployed as a war file into Tomcat 10.
All the files are located outside the Tomcat folder structure.

After hours of research…
how to show a pdf inside an iFrame in a view?

Using JMIX 2.0.3 with newest plugin and IDEA version, openJDK 17…

I got a little bit further (but maybe in the wrong direction?)

I added a @Configuration and in there a resourceHandler
In the view I added an iFrame inside a formLayout…
And then I tried this coding, but I get an error: stream closed
when I try to set the iframe source.

Any tip would be great.

public void onShowPDFClick(final ClickEvent<JmixButton> event) {
    String fileName = "0aatest.pdf";
    String fileNamePath = "objectplan/0aatest.pdf";

    try {
        File file = ResourceUtils.getFile(fileNamePath);
        System.out.println(file.exists());
        StreamResource resource = new StreamResource(fileName, () -> new BufferedInputStream(getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(fileNamePath)));
        StreamRegistration registration = VaadinSession.getCurrent().getResourceRegistry().registerResource(resource);
        System.out.println(registration.getResourceUri().toString());
        iframeID.setSrc(registration.getResourceUri().toString());
    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println(e.getMessage());
    }
}

the system.out:
true

I use an image now… that works… can show the pdf and can resize it like needed.

public void onShowPDFClick(final ClickEvent event) {
String fileName = “0aatest.pdf”;
String fileNamePath = “objectplan/0aatest.pdf”;

    try {
        Path pdfPath = Paths.get(fileNamePath);
        byte[] pdf = Files.readAllBytes(pdfPath);
        ByteArrayInputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(pdf);
        StreamResource resource2 = new StreamResource(fileName, () -> in);
        imageID.setSrc(resource2);
        imageID.setWidth(defaultSize, Unit.PIXELS);
        imageID.setHeight(defaultSize, Unit.PIXELS);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println(e.getMessage());
    }
}
