Maps opens photos in the viewer from three components:
src/components/Sidebar/PhotoSuggestionsSidebarTab.vue:288: OCA.Viewer.open({ path, list })
src/components/map/PhotoSuggestionsLayer.vue:200,253: window.OCA.Viewer.open({ path, list })
src/components/map/PhotosLayer.vue:172,223: window.OCA.Viewer.open({ path, list })
Both arguments change shape: the viewer takes @nextcloud/files nodes, so the photo objects
being passed as path and list need to become nodes. The if (window.OCA && window.OCA.Viewer && window.OCA.Viewer.open) guards can go with them, since importing the package is enough.
OCA.Viewer is gone in Viewer 7.0.0. The viewer ships as the @nextcloud/viewer library rather than a
bundled app, and nextcloud/server#63954 removes the viewer app from Nextcloud 36 altogether.
Roughly what it looks like:
import{canView,getViewer}from'@nextcloud/viewer'// OCA.Viewer.open({ path }) / ({ fileInfo, list })getViewer().open(nodes,file)// @nextcloud/files nodesgetViewer().openFolder(folder,file)// when a path is all you have, let it fetch// OCA.Viewer.mimetypes.includes(mime) / availableHandlerscanView(node)
The part that is not a rename is that the viewer takes @nextcloud/files nodes now, not fileinfo objects or path strings. Importing the package is also all it takes to get the viewer
onto the page: no LoadViewer event to dispatch, and nothing to check about whether the app is
enabled.
Important
There is no compatibility shim, which was a deliberate call, so this is a real port rather
than a rename. Nothing breaks until the server PR lands; after that these calls throw on
Nextcloud 36.

Tip
The developer manual covers the migration under
Critical changes
(being added in nextcloud/documentation#15597), and the
README
has the full before/after table. Happy to help with the port, just ping me.
