Feature: add support for all barcode types supported by zxing library #10
Comments
I am not clear on the request. What does it mean to generate a new barcode? The actual barcode image is not saved by the app; instead the barcode number and type is saved. When an store entry is selected the barcode is generated on demand and displayed. If you could give a step by step use case for the request, it would help my understanding of what you are after. Thanks! |
Ah, Apologies, I have just scanned a card with a elan style barcode and it worked, i cant seem to scan the card I thought it was that uses a PDF417 |
@ioangogo Currently the zxing library, used to scan and generate barcodes, supports the following 1D barcodes and is configured in this application to do so:
Have you observed a barcode for a loyalty card which is a 2D barcode, such as PDF417? If so, 2D barcode support can be enabled easily, I believe. Let me know, and I can do so and release another version of this application with 2D barcode support. |
Yes, The loyalty card that i have seen with a 2D barcode is a KFC card with the PDF417 and subway with a data matrix |
Although the zxing library is capable of scanning multiple types of barcodes, it appears it is only currently able to generate the following:
The only missing barcode type which Stocard supports is GS1_128. That is, this application will not be able to support GS1_128 barcodes whereas Stocard will be able to. I'l see about adding support for only the barcode types I've listed above. |
This pull request adds support for all barcodes that zxing can generate. The next release should take care of this. |
A release has been cut, and should be picked up by F-Droid in the next day or so. |
For example a KFC card is required to be scanned and having this app remake the barcode could be better
