BarcodeScanner Module

The BarcodeScanner Module provides barcode and QR code scanning functionality when the viewer is run in the Geocortex Mobile App Framework. This allows a user to edit a feature by scanning a barcode or QR code that matches a configurable field name. If the scanned value does not match any existing field name, the user can use the scanned value to either create a new feature with the user's current position, or select a feature to assign the scanned value.

To provide this functionality, use the CreateOrEditFeatureFromBarcodeScan command, and supply a command parameter object or JSON string with two properties:

• featureServiceID: The ID of the feature service for which to create or edit a feature.

• scanResultFieldName: The field name for which to set when creating a new feature, or search to edit an existing feature.

For example, {"featureServiceID": 1, "scanResultFieldName": "MY_FIELD_NAME"}.
