This plugin requires the end user to install the ZXing Barcode Scanner app If the user doesn't have the app install they will be promped to install it the first time the plugin is used.

To install the plugin, move barcodescanner.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.
Create a folder called "beetight" within your project's src/com/ folder and move the java file into it.

Using the plugin

The plugin creates the object window.plugins.barcodeScanner with one method scan(types, success, fail, options) types is a comma-separated list of barcode types that the scanner should accept. If you pass null then any barcode type will be accepted. The following types are currently available:

QR_CODE
DATA_MATRIX
UPC_E
UPC_A
EAN_8
EAN_13
CODE_128
CODE_39
CODE_93
CODABAR
ITF
RSS14
PDF417
RSS_EXPANDED

Take a look in the javascript file for the list, as well as some convenience constants.

success and fail are callback functions. Success is passed the decoded barcode as a string. options allows you to change the strings used in the dialog box which is displayed if the user doesn't have Barcode Scanner installed. The defaults are:

{
    installTitle = "Install Barcode Scanner?",
    installMessage = "This requires the free Barcode Scanner app. Would you like to install it now?",
    yesString = "Yes",
    noString = "No"
}

A full example could be:

window.plugins.barcodeScanner.scan( BarcodeScanner.Type.QR_CODE, function(result) {
        alert("We got a barcode: " + result);
    }, function(error) {
	    alert("Scanning failed: " + error);
    }, {yesString: "Install"}
);
