Usage
The Vue Barcode Reader works out of the box by just including it.
Using Video Camera
Once a stream from the users camera is loaded, it's displayed and continuously scanned for barcodes. Results are indicated by the decode event.
import { StreamBarcodeReader } from "vue-barcode-reader";
In your template you can use this syntax:
<StreamBarcodeReader @decode="onDecode" @loaded="onLoaded"></StreamBarcodeReader>
Scanning from Image
The component renders to a simple file picker input element. Clicking opens a file dialog. On supporting mobile devices the camera is started to take a picture. The selected images are directly scanned and positive results are indicated by the decode
event.
import { ImageBarcodeReader } from "vue-barcode-reader";
In your template you can use this syntax:
<ImageBarcodeReader @decode="onDecode" @error="onError"></ImageBarcodeReader>
methods: { onDecode (result) { console.log(result) } }
