For more information, see + :doc:`picker`. + + It can support automatic capture from the camera only if the library is + re-built to use private APIs (see :doc:`compat`). + + +Properties +---------- + + .. member:: ZBarImageScanner *scanner + + Access to the image scanner for configuration. (read-only) + + .. member:: id<ZBarReaderDelegate> readerDelegate + + The delegate that will be notified when new barcode results are + available. + + .. member:: BOOL showsZBarControls + + Whether to display a default control set consisting of cancel, scan and + info buttons. Disable these if you provide your own controls using the + :member:`cameraOverlayView`. Enabling this automatically disables the + system controls :member:`showsCameraControls`. (Default ``YES``). + + .. member:: BOOL showsHelpOnFail + + Whether to automatically display the integrated help viewer when an + image fails to decode. Even if this is disabled, the integrated help + may still be presented manually using ``showHelpWithReason:``. + (Default ``YES``) + + .. member:: ZBarReaderControllerCameraMode cameraMode + + Scanning mode to use with the camera. It is generally appropriate to + leave this at the default. + + .. member:: BOOL tracksSymbols + + Whether to display the tracking rectangle around detected barcodes. + + .. member:: BOOL takesPicture + + Whether to take a full picture (with ``takePicture``) when a barcode + is detected with ``ZBarReaderControllerCameraModeSampling``. The + resulting image will be delayed from the actual decode. + + .. member:: BOOL enableCache + + This property is deprecated and should not be modified. + + .. member:: CGRect scanCrop + + Crop images before scanning. The original image will be cropped to this + rectangle, which should be in normalized image coordinates, x-axis + major. Defaults to the full image ``{{0, 0}, {1, 1}}``. + + .. member:: NSInteger maxScanDimension + + Scale image to scan. After cropping, the image will be scaled if + necessary, such that neither of its dimensions exceed this value. + Defaults to 640. + + .. note:: + + The remaining properties are inherited from + :class:`UIImagePickerController`. + + .. member:: UIImagePickerControllerSourceType sourceType + + Image source. Use to select between the camera and photo library. + + .. member:: BOOL showsCameraControls + + Whether to display the system camera controls. Overridden to ``NO`` + when :member:`showsZBarControls` is ``YES``. + + .. member:: UIView *cameraOverlayView + + A custom view to display over the camera preview. The tracking layer + and default controls will be added to this view if they are enabled. + + .. member:: CGAffineTransform cameraViewTransform + + A transform to apply to the camera preview. Ignored by the reader. + Possibly useful for eg, a digital zoom effect. + + .. member:: BOOL allowsEditing + + Whether to enable the system image editing dialog after a picture is + taken. Possibly useful to improve reader results in some cases using + manual intervention. + + +Instance Methods +---------------- + + .. _`showHelpWithReason:`: + .. describe:: - (void) showHelpWithReason:(NSString*)reason + + Display the integrated help browser. Use this with custom overlays if + you don't also want to create your own help view. Should only be called + when the reader is displayed. The ``reason`` argument will be passed to + the :func:`onZBarHelp` javascript function. + + :reason: A string parameter passed to javascript. + + .. _`scanImage:`: + .. describe:: - (id <NSFastEnumeration>) scanImage:(CGImageRef)image + + Scan an image for barcodes. This is a wrapper around + ``scanner.scanImage`` that applies scanCrop and maxScanDimension. Some + additional result filtering is also performed. + + :image: A :class:`CGImage` to scan. + :Returns: The result set containing :class:`ZBarSymbol` objects. + + +Constants +--------- + +.. type:: ZBarReaderControllerCameraMode + + The scanning mode to use with the camera. + + ZBarReaderControllerCameraModeDefault + The standard mode provided by UIImagePickerController - the user + manually captures an image by tapping a control. This is the default + unless private APIs are enabled. + + ZBarReaderControllerCameraModeSampling + Automatically capture by taking screenshots with + :func:`UIGetScreenImage`. Resolution is limited to the screen + resolution, so this mode is inappropriate for longer codes. Only + available when private APIs are enabled, and becomes the default mode in + that case. + + ZBarReaderControllerCameraModeSequence + Experimental mode that automatically scans by "rapidly" scanning + pictures captured with ``takePicture``. Not recommended for serious + use. + +.. c:var:: NSString *ZBarReaderControllerResults + + The info dictionary key used to return decode results to + ``imagePickerController:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:`` |
