PDF.js Folder

Dear all, the plugin has been updated to work with Moodle 4.5+, 5.0+.

I managed to change some code with the latest Moodle standards, and the plugin works for Moodle 3.10+
You can download it on my github onyet/onyetmpdf

> For Moodle 3.8, I was successful to install this plugin with the following modifications:
I received a message that says my post is not clear, so I rewrite the post to show how you should modify the pdf.js files:
In version.php under mod/pdfjsfolder/ , find the lines like
$module->version = 2013120300;
$module->requires = 2012120300;
$module->cron = 0;
$module->component = 'mod_pdfjsfolder';
$module->maturity = MATURITY_BETA;
$module->release = '0.14';
and modify them to
$plugin->version = 2013120300;
$plugin->requires = 2012120300;
$plugin->cron = 0;
$plugin->component = 'mod_pdfjsfolder';
$plugin->maturity = MATURITY_BETA;
$plugin->release = '0.14';
In lib.php under mod/pdfjsfolder/ , find the line like
if ($cm->get_custom_data()) {
and modify it to
if ($cm->customdata) {
and also find the line like
$cm->get_custom_data() &&
and modify it to
$cm->customdata &&
That is all you have to do to make PDF.js Folder installable.

For Moodle 3.8, I was successful to install this plugin with the following modifications:

Does somebody reply here?

What to do?

If still interesting need change $cm->get_custom_data() on $cm->customdata in 436 and 451 strings in file pdfjsfolder/lib.php
It's worked on my Moodle 3.7.2+ (Build: 20191025)

i did everything you suggested and now i have this : Coding error detected, it must be fixed by a programmer: cm_info::get_custom_data() can not be used anymore. Please use the property cm_info->customdata instead

Can I confirm - we use the module with modifications under moodle3.3.1
in addition we have restricted pdfjs - no save, no print, no copy

Can be used in 3.3. With some slight changes, it supports more than PDF´s.

Can be used in 3.2.3 with changes of steve.

Paul, try changing the $module entries in version.php to $plugin which means it will be 'seen' by Moodle 3. Seems to work fine for me.

Hmm.. I'd really like to use this module in 3.0 (but it won't install)

Hi
Can this plugin be used for Moodle 2.9+?
