This code snippet shows you an example in plain JS, how you can integrate the scanning functionality inside your Web application:
// IMPORTANT! You need the app with version 7.8.0 installed on the device!
// This code is just for demonstration purposes!
// To call the scanner from your web app, you have to href this url
// niko.barcode.keyboard://scan/yourDesiredUrlEncodedPath#{CODE}
// Example: <`a href="niko.barcode.keyboard://scan/yourDesiredUrlEncodedPath#{CODE}">test<`/a>
function processBarcode(barcode){
// Create div element and set the barcode value inside this div
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.innerHTML = barcode;
document.body.appendChild(div);
}
function nikoBarcodeListener(e){
// Event listener for processing scanned data
localStorage["nikoBarcodeKeyboard"] = "";
if(e.url.split("\#")[0] === window.location.href){
window.focus();
processBarcode(decodeURIComponent(e.newValue));
}
window.removeEventListener("storage", nikoBarcodeListener, false);
}
if(window.location.hash !== ""){
localStorage["nikoBarcodeKeyboard"] = window.location.hash.substr(1);
self.close();
window.location.href="about:blank";//In case self.close is disabled
}else{
// register event listener for capturing url changes
window.addEventListener("hashchange", function(e){
window.removeEventListener("storage", nikoBarcodeListener, false);
var hash = window.location.hash.substr(1);
if (hash !== "") {
window.location.hash = "";
processBarcode(decodeURIComponent(hash));
}
}, false);
}
function startScanner(){
// This function will trigger the scanning process for the current url
// Set currentUrl so the scanner will know where to return the result
var currentUrl = window.location.href.split("\#")[0];
// Register event listener which will process the scanned data after scanning is completed
window.addEventListener("storage", nikoBarcodeListener, false);
// You need to add the {CODE} placeholder in your url string so the scanner can replace it with the value
window.open("niko.barcode.keyboard://scan/" + encodeURIComponent(currentUrl + "#{CODE}"),'_self');
}
// Then you add for example a button which will trigger the scanner
<`button onclick="startScanner()">Start scanning<`/button>
This code snippet shows you an example, how you can use Niko Barcode & QR code keyboard from third party apps:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private Integer MY_REQUEST_CODE = 1333; // set this value to whatever you want
private TextView textView;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button button = findViewById(R.id.button);
textView = findViewById(R.id.textView);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
startTheScanner();
}
});
}
protected void startTheScanner() {
Intent i = new Intent("com.nikosoft.nikokeyboard.START_BARCODE_SCAN");
startActivityForResult(i, MY_REQUEST_CODE);
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == MY_REQUEST_CODE) {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String value = data.getStringExtra("barcode_value");
textView.setText(value);
}
}
}
