Overview

This class provides methods for creating and managing the destinations of a PDF file.

A destination describes a particular view of a PDF document, consisting of the page, the view location and a magnification factor. See Destination for details.

Such destinations may be directly specified where needed, e.g. for link annotations, or they may be named and later referenced through the name. This class allows to create destinations with or without a name.

#use_or_create(value) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

destinations.use_or_create(name)           -> name
destinations.use_or_create(destination)    -> destination
destinations.use_or_create(page)           -> destination
destinations.use_or_create(type:, page, **options)           -> destination

Uses the given destination name/array or creates a destination array based on the given arguments.

This is the main utility method for other parts of HexaPDF for getting a valid destination array based on various different types of the given arguments:

String

If a string is provided, it is assumed to be a named destination. If the named destination exists, the destination itself is returned. Otherwise an error is raised.

Array

If a valid destination array is provided, it is returned. Otherwise an error is raised.

Page dictionary

If the value is a valid page dictionary object, a fit to page (#create_fit_page) destination array is created and returned.

Integer

If the value is an integer, it is interpreted as a zero-based page index and a fit to page (#create_fit_page) destination array is created and returned.

Hash containing at least :type and :page

If the value is a hash, the :type key specifies the type of the destination that should be created and the :page key the target page. Which other keys are allowed depends on the destination type, so see the various create_XXX methods. Uses #create to do the job.
