Uncaught (in promise) Error at PdfHighlighter.init

[christophhalbi]

From time to time I get:

Uncaught (in promise) Error: ! at PdfHighlighter.init (react-pdf-highlighter.js?v=7deb8492:2123:13)

Thrown here:

if (!this.containerNodeRef.current) {
    throw new Error("!");
}

Am I doing anything wrong?

Seems like a timing issue to me - checking containerNodeRef.current in init before ref is set in render

Getting this issue as well, do you know what might be causing this, maybe I'm not waiting for the component to mount?

Solution for me was to overwrite PdfHighlighter and add a little timeout to overcome the timing-issue.

I also found this problem. I was going to directly modify the source code to solve it. Your scheme is very Nice.
