Looking at https://github.com/kogmbh/ViewerJS/blob/master/PDFViewerPlugin.js#L45 , the ViewerJS is using some private PDF.js file that are subject to change. It's recommended to use API that PDF.js team publishes at https://github.com/mozilla/pdfjs-dist, and it's somewhat stable.

If you need some other feature, please open an issue at https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/

Most of https://github.com/kogmbh/ViewerJS/labels/PDF.js bugs (web/pdf_viewer.js can build/paint a page with text layer and annotations added) and building from source issues (sources are already built) will be addressed by that.
