Deprecation warning

Please note that this is outdated documentation for an older release of the Scandit Barcode Scanner SDK.

We are deprecating the 5.x API on all platforms (except Linux). Release 5.19 in April 2021 will be our final. Applications running 5.x will continue to work, and we will continue to release critical bug fixes and security patches only, for one year. We encourage you to migrate to 6.x and take advantage of our latest / advanced features and improved performance.

You'll find the updated documentation at: Data Capture SDK Documentation for Cordova

Upgrading the Scandit Barcode Scanner

How to upgrade from a test to a different edition

If you upgrade from the test edition you need to download the plugin from your new or updated account. Even if you continue to use the same account you need to redownload the plugin as its framework has changed with the upgrade. Once downloaded remove the old plugin from your project and add the new plugin as usual.

1 cd <directory of your project>
2 phonegap plugin rm com.mirasense.scanditsdk.plugin
3 phonegap plugin add <path to downloaded and unzipped plugin>

Finally check that the app key of your enterprise account matches the one in your app. If it doesn't match, replace it with the one in your account.

How to upgrade to a new version of the Scandit Barcode Scanner

Whenever you update to the newest version you simply need to remove the already installed plugin and add the newly downloaded version.

1 cd <directory of your project>
2 phonegap plugin rm com.mirasense.scanditsdk.plugin
3 phonegap plugin add <path to downloaded and unzipped plugin>
