#Configuration Methods

#`prompt(string $prompt)`

Set custom prompt text displayed on the scanner screen.

Custom Prompt

Copied!

Scanner::scan()->prompt('Scan product barcode');

Scanner::scan()->prompt('Scan product barcode');

Copied!

await scanner.scan()
    .prompt('Scan product barcode');

await scanner.scan()
    .prompt('Scan product barcode');

#`continuous(bool $continuous = true)`

Keep scanner open to scan multiple codes. Default is false (closes after first scan).

Continuous Scanning

Copied!

Scanner::scan()->continuous(true);

Scanner::scan()->continuous(true);

Copied!

await scanner.scan()
    .continuous(true);

await scanner.scan()
    .continuous(true);

#`formats(array $formats)`

Specify which barcode formats to scan. Default is ['qr'].

Available formats: qr, ean13, ean8, code128, code39, upca, upce, all

Barcode Formats

Copied!

Scanner::scan()->formats(['qr', 'ean13', 'code128']);

Scanner::scan()->formats(['qr', 'ean13', 'code128']);

Copied!

await scanner.scan()
    .formats(['qr', 'ean13', 'code128']);

await scanner.scan()
    .formats(['qr', 'ean13', 'code128']);

#`id(string $id)`

Set a unique identifier for the scan session. Useful for handling different scan contexts.

Scan Session ID

Copied!

Scanner::scan()->id('checkout-scanner');

Scanner::scan()->id('checkout-scanner');

Copied!

await scanner.scan()
    .id('checkout-scanner');

await scanner.scan()
    .id('checkout-scanner');

#Combined Example

    ->prompt('Scan your ticket')
    ->continuous(true)
    ->formats(['qr', 'ean13'])
    ->id('ticket-scanner');

Scanner::scan()
    ->prompt('Scan your ticket')
    ->continuous(true)
    ->formats(['qr', 'ean13'])
    ->id('ticket-scanner');

Copied!

    .prompt('Scan your ticket')
    .continuous(true)
    .formats(['qr', 'ean13'])
    .id('ticket-scanner');

#Events

#`CodeScanned`

Fired when a barcode is successfully scanned.

Properties:

string $data - The decoded barcode data
string $format - The barcode format
string|null $id - The scan session ID (if set)

#Notes

Platform Support:
- Android: ML Kit Barcode Scanning (API 21+)
- iOS: AVFoundation (iOS 13.0+)
Permissions: You must enable the scanner permission in config/nativephp.php to use the scanner. Camera permissions are then handled automatically, and users will be prompted for permission the first time the scanner is used.
