Customizing

The viewer - service can be extended as described in this section.

Localization

The viewer-service offers a few strings with information for your users. They are part of the localization files en.json and de.json of the client.

Integration into 3rd party application

If the Viewer-Service runs in a different domain than the application that integrates it the Argus-Service has to be configured. In the file servicewatcher-sw.yml the parameter 'env' lists the parent domain has to be added as follows:

en.json- name: viewerservice
"yuv  .viewer.not.authorized".
  env:
"Not  authorized to preview file.",
 "yuv.viewer.not.found": "File not found.",
   ALLOWED_ORIGIN: http://myhost.com,http://myotherhost.com

Localization

The viewer-service offers a few strings with information for your users. They are part of the localization files en.json and de.json of the client.

en.json :
 "yuv.viewer.not.supportedauthorized": "Format not supportedNot authorized to preview file.",
 "yuv.viewer.not.found": "File not found.",
 "yuv.viewer.not.supported": "Format not supported.",
 "yuv.viewer.not.supported.download.content": "Unable to display format. You can click this link to download the file."

de.json :
  "yuv.viewer.not.authorized": "Fehlende Authorisierung zur Anzeige der Datei.",
  "yuv.viewer.not.found": "Datei nicht gefunden.",
  "yuv.viewer.not.supported": "Dieses Format ist nicht unterstützt.",
  "yuv.viewer.not.supported.download.content": "Dieses Format kann nicht angezeigt werden. Ein Klick auf den Link lädt die Datei herunter."

...

Custom Viewer Configuration

The use of the viewer-service components can be extended by adding a few lines to its configuration.in the client configuration file main.json. The following configuration shows the default configuration used by the client:

"preview": {
  "viewers": [
    {
      "mimeType": ["application/json", "text/json", "text/plain", "text/xml", "text/java", "text/javascript", "application/javascript", "text/html", "text/markdown", "text/x-web-markdown", "text/x-markdown"],
      "viewer": "viewer/view/api/monaco/?path=${path}&mimeType=${mimeType}&fileExtension=${fileExtension}&lang=${lang}&theme=${theme}"
    },
    {
      "mimeType": ["audio/mp3", "audio/webm", "audio/ogg", "audio/mpeg", "video/mp4", "video/webm", "video/ogg", "application/ogg"],
      "viewer": "viewer/view/api/video/?path=${path}&mimeType=${mimeType}&fileExtension=${fileExtension}&lang=${lang}&theme=${theme}"
    },
    {
      "mimeType": ["image/tiff","image/jpeg", "image/png", "image/apng", "image/gif", "image/svg+xml", "image/webp"],
      "viewer": "viewer/view/api/img/?path=${path}&mimeType=${mimeType}&fileExtension=${fileExtension}&lang=${lang}&theme=${theme}"
    },
    {
  "    "mimeType": ["message/rfc822", "application/vnd.ms-outlook"],
      "viewer": "viewer/view/api/mail/?path=${path}&mimeType=${mimeType}&fileExtension=${fileExtension}&lang=${lang}&theme=${theme}"
}{theme}"
    }
  ]
}

• mimeType may also be a string Array, containing multiple mime types
• viewer defines the internal viewing component to be used as there are monaco (see: https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/), video, img, and mail. All URL parameters are necessary for the client so that it can find the document file (path), and show the correct language labels as well as the theme that is configured by the user. 

Example for the viewing of markdown-formatted files via an external viewing component:

"preview": {
  "viewers": [
    {
      "mimeType": "text/x-web-markdown",
      "fileExtension": ["md"]
      "viewer": "{pathtoapplicationindex.html}?path=${path}#locale=${locale}&direction=${direction}&theme=${theme}&accentColor=${accentColor}"
    }
]

...

  ]
}

Additionally, non-mandatory parameters are provided (corresponding to the client settings)
