Scanning Barcodes In Android, iOS or Windows 8 |
Mon, Feb 10 2014 9:16 AM | Permanent Link |
Frederick Chin | Is it possible for a tablet running Android, iOS or Windows 8 to scan barcodes (EAN-13) using a barcode scanner or natively and then have the barcode entered into an EWB application?

Leslie | Frederick,
Maybe this helps: https://github.com/zxing/zxing/wiki/Scanning-From-Web-Pages Cheers, Leslie |

Frederick Chin | Leslie,
/* Maybe this helps: https://github.com/zxing/zxing/wiki/Scanning-From-Web-Pages */ Thanks for the link. I am looking for something simpler. The stock ID field is focused and the user scans a barcode with a barcode scanner and it appears in the field. Possible? Frederick |

Frederick I am pretty ignorant on all EWB topics, but I can't see why not. This entry explains the use of "wedges" and "software wedges" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcode_reader. Your program thinks the code is coming from the keyboard. This should work as well for EWB as it does any other program. Cheers Jeff -- Jeff Cook Aspect Systems Ltd |

Leslie | Frederick,
I would be surprized if there was any simplier way to do this. Since your app is running in a sandbox no API's are available except the ones your browser provides access to. Here is the list: http://caniuse.com/ Anything beyond that can only be achived by communicating with some sort of server service via http or websockets. Cheers, Leslie |

Leslie | Frederick,
If you want simple usage you can create a function with a TDataColumn parameter to handle the http request. Cheers, Leslie |

That might work if you are wanting to roll out 100 "EWB devices" internally only to fill this purpose. There might even be existing PhoneGap modules for it. /Matthew Jones/ |

Frederick Chin | I thought that if I paired a tablet with a Bluetooth barcode scanner, the scans would appear in EWB's text fields?
Not as simple as this? Frederick |
