Worked on stabilizing the PDF download functionality in the hmcts/em-media-viewer repository, focusing on the PdfJsWrapper component. Addressed a persistent bug by aligning the downloadFile method with the downloadManager API, carefully evaluating both download and downloadUrl integration paths to reduce instability. Adjusted and expanded unit tests in TypeScript to guard against regressions, ensuring that changes were traceable and reversible as the correct API direction was determined. The work emphasized front-end development best practices, improved reliability for end users, and established documentation to support future iterations, laying a foundation for consistent PDF download behavior across different environments and deployments.
November 2024 performance summary for hmcts/em-media-viewer: Focused on stabilizing the PDF download flow in PdfJsWrapper by aligning downloadFile with the downloadManager API. The work included evaluating two API paths (download vs downloadUrl) and implementing targeted unit-test adjustments to guard against regressions. While the API direction remains under evaluation, the efforts reduced risk of flaky downloads and established a traceable path for a reliable end-user experience. Impact is improved reliability for PDF downloads and groundwork for consistent behavior across environments.
