Annotation events and notifications

Markdown version of this page, suitable for AI agents and automation

Nutrient React Native SDK lets you detect when one or more annotations have changed via the AnnotationEvent event listeners. Here’s how to register for the event listeners to be notified when one or more annotations have changed:

override componentDidMount() {
    this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().subscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.CHANGED, (event: any) => {
      Alert.alert('Nutrient', JSON.stringify(event));
    });


    this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().subscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.ADDED, (event: any) => {
      Alert.alert('Nutrient', JSON.stringify(event));
    });


    this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().subscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.REMOVED, (event: any) => {
      Alert.alert('Nutrient', JSON.stringify(event));
    });
  }

When done, remember to unregister from the event listeners:

override componentWillUnmount () {
  this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().unsubscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.CHANGED);
  this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().unsubscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.ADDED);
  this.pdfRef.current?.getNotificationCenter().unsubscribe(NotificationCenter.AnnotationsEvent.REMOVED);
}
