A set of types that describe the format of the IIIF Presentation 3.0 specification as accurately as possible.
Installation:
$ npm i @iiif/presentation-3
Installation (yarn):
$ yarn add @iiif/presentation-3
Usage (Typescript):
import { Manifest } from '@iiif/presentation-3';
const manifest = getManifestFromSomewhere() as Manifest;
function doSomethingWithManifest(manifest: Manifest) {
// ...
}Usage (Javascript):
/**
* @typedef { import("@iiif/presentation-3").Manifest } Manifest
*/
/**
* @type {Manifest}
*/
const manifest = {};
/**
* @param manifest {Manifest}
*/
function doSomethingWithManifest(manifest) {
console.log(manifest.label);
}
// You can also inline the import:
/**
* @type {import("@iiif/presentation-3").Manifest}
*/
