ti.codescanner - Titanium code scanner module for Android

Scan codes (QR, Barcodes) without any camera permission!

Based on the MLKit Google code scanner (Beta) you can use this module to make a simple QR/Barcode scanner inside your app that don't need any camera permission!

If you'll need to customize your UI or want to scan text have a look at the demo of my ti.mlkit module.

Example

const win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
const codescanner = require("ti.codescanner");
codescanner.addEventListener("complete", e => {
	console.log(e.value);
})
win.addEventListener("click", e => {
	codescanner.scan({
		autoZoom: false,
		formats: [codescanner.FORMAT_QR_CODE] // only scan QR Codes
	});
});
win.open();

Known issues

On some phones the code scanner might not work or open/closes right away without any error. The Google Play Services could be an issue. The Titanium module only calls one function from Googles library. If you have a non-working phone you would need to use their support pages: https://developers.google.com/ml-kit/community
