Run the samples

The example project on GitHub comes with six demos:

  • simplesample: shows how to use the barcode scanner in a stand-alone activity.
  • extended: allows the user to configure the barcode scanner as well as the UI from the application itself.
  • textrecognitionsample: shows how to use our OCR plugin (you will need to request to suppo.nosp@m.rt@s.nosp@m.candi.nosp@m.t.co.nosp@m.m to enable your account for OCR).

Running and Building the Samples from the Command-Line

These instructions show how the sample application can be run from the command-line. First, you will have to download the titanium module for the Scandit BarcodeScanner SDK from the download page. Then execute the following commands on the command-line.

> cd simplesample
> appc new --name=SimpleSample --id=com.scandit.simplesample --import --no-services
> appc alloy install plugin
> unzip <path to downloaded zipped plugin>
> appc run --platform=android --target=device

For iOS, you need to specify the provisioning profile (--pp-uuid) and developer name (--developer-name) for deploying to the device. The complete command will look something like this: `appc run –platform=ios –target=device –developer-name='Your Name (LASW8D4321)' –pp-uuid='aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-eeeeeeeeeeee'. To figure out the parameters, just run it once without–developer-nameand–pp-uuid` options, which will prompt the available options. Depending on the Appcelerator version, you might need to create a special certificate to sign the application, because automatic signing is not supported. See this ticket for details.
