How to use Zxing in portrait mode?
Here is the Solution for Portrait mode Scanning
first declare these two lines in your app level gradle file
implementation 'com.journeyapps:zxing-android-embedded:3.0.1@aar'
implementation 'com.google.zxing:core:3.2.0'
Define a button in your xml file and in Onclick Listener of button write below code in MainActivity java file
IntentIntegrator integrator = new IntentIntegrator(this);
integrator.setPrompt("Scan a barcode");
integrator.setCameraId(0); // Use a specific camera of the device
integrator.setOrientationLocked(true);
integrator.setBeepEnabled(true);
integrator.setCaptureActivity(CaptureActivityPortrait.class);
integrator.initiateScan();
Write below code in your MainActivity java file after onCreate() method
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
IntentResult result = IntentIntegrator.parseActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(result != null) {
if(result.getContents() == null) {
Log.d("MainActivity", "Cancelled scan");
Toast.makeText(this, "Cancelled", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Log.d("MainActivity", "Scanned");
st_scanned_result = result.getContents();
Toast.makeText(this, "Scanned: " + result.getContents(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
then create a class with name CaptureActivityPortrait that extends CaptureActivity. The class looks like below
package soAndSo(Your PackageName);
import com.journeyapps.barcodescanner.CaptureActivity;
public class CaptureActivityPortrait extends CaptureActivity {
}
And Most Important declare your CaptureActivityPortrait in manifest file like below
<activity android:name=".CaptureActivityPortrait"
android:screenOrientation="sensorPortrait"
android:stateNotNeeded="true"
android:theme="@style/zxing_CaptureTheme"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden"></activity>
