Original barcode_scan was discontinued, so barcode_scan2 was borned with sound null safety support🎉
A flutter plugin for scanning 2D barcodes and QR codes.
This provides a simple wrapper for two commonly used iOS and Android libraries:
- iOS: https://github.com/mikebuss/MTBBarcodeScanner
- Android: https://github.com/dm77/barcodescanner
- Scan 2D barcodes
- Scan QR codes
- Control the flash while scanning
- Permission handling
For Android, you must do the following before you can use the plugin:
-
Add the camera permission to your AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
-
This plugin is written in Kotlin. Therefore, you need to add Kotlin support to your project. See installing the Kotlin plugin.
Edit your project-level build.gradle file to look like this:
buildscript {
ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.61'
// ...
dependencies {
// ...
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
}
}
// ...
Edit your app-level build.gradle file to look like this:
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
// ...
dependencies {
implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version"
// ...
}
Now you can depend on the barcode_scan plugin in your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
# ...
barcode_scan: any
Click "Packages get" in Android Studio or run flutter packages get
in your project folder.
To use on iOS, you must add the the camera usage description to your Info.plist
<dict>
<!-- ... -->
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Camera permission is required for barcode scanning.</string>
<!-- ... -->
</dict>
import 'package:barcode_scan/barcode_scan.dart';
void main() async {
var result = await BarcodeScanner.scan();
print(result.type); // The result type (barcode, cancelled, failed)
print(result.rawContent); // The barcode content
print(result.format); // The barcode format (as enum)
print(result.formatNote); // If a unknown format was scanned this field contains a note
}
You can pass options to the scan method:
import 'package:barcode_scan/barcode_scan.dart';
void main() async {
var options = ScanOptions(
// set the options
);
var result = await BarcodeScanner.scan(options: options);
// ...
}

Mac:
$ brew install protobuf
$ brew install swift-protobuf
Windows / Linux: https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf#protocol-compiler-installation
Activate the protobuf dart plugin:
$ flutter pub global activate protoc_plugin
Install theProtobuf Support
plugin for IDEA / Android Studio or vscode-proto3
