Display PDFs
-
I'm having an issue with displaying PDFs, so I decided to download the jsReport studio (https://github.com/jsreport/jsreport-studio) and see how they are displayed there. It doesn't run. When I do an npm install, it fails on restoring items.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!

hi! i'm not sure what is the failure for you when using jsreport studio as standalone, can you describe the steps that you are using?
i think if you want to understand how to display the pdf propertly in your app, you can check our browser client and check the code behind it](https://github.com/jsreport/jsreport-browser-client-dist/blob/master/src/jsreport.js) to understand how to handle it in your app.

Hmm. Interesting. I was looking at this page. https://github.com/jsreport/jsreport-studio/blob/master/src/components/Preview/Preview.js Specifically how you use an iframe to embed the pdf in the online studio. I will look at the one you suggested and see if I can tell what I'm doing wrong.
As far as getting it to work, I did a clone of jsreport-studio to a directory and then just ran 'npm install' and that reported errors. Maybe I messed up and that isn't a stand alone app that can run?
Thanks!

it should work, if you are still curious about jsreport-studio.. what version of npm do you have? we use npm5 all the time and the install works always, are you using npm 5 too? also maybe it would help more if you share the exact error message that you get after npm install.
