Is pdfjs-dist not supported anymore ?

[sayo96]

Hey guys,
I have been trying to parse a pdf using https://github.com/mozilla/pdfjs-dist on my server. I recently noticed the archived label.
Here are my questions:

• Is pdfjs-dist no longer maintained ?
• I would also like to know is there someway to use https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js on node server ?

Why has it been archived?

[timvandermeij]

The pdfjs-dist repository is archived because we only distribute pdfjs-dist as an NPM package, we haven't pushed to the pdfjs-dist repository in over 1.5 years because of infrastructure issues and there wasn't a use case for it anymore that warranted further work to it. Refer to #18357 for more context.

Thanks for the swift response @timvandermeij . I'm looking to build a POC using pdf-dist and want to know if pdf-dist will still receive support even though you will only distribute it as an NPM Package.

[timvandermeij]

Yes, the pdfjs-dist NPM package is supported; it's purely the separate Git repository that we stopped supporting.
