How to integrate the Scanbot Flutter Barcode Scanner SDK using Ready-To-Use UI

The Ready-To-Use UI (RTU UI) is an easy-to-integrate and highly customizable high-level UI component that can handle most barcode scanning use cases and tasks.

The design and behavior of this component are based on our many years of experience as well as the feedback from our SDK customers.

Although the main idea of the RTU UI is to provide simple-to-integrate and simple-to-configure components, its customization capabilities are numerous and should suit most of your needs. To achieve an even higher degree of customization, you can implement a custom UI and business-logic using our Classic SDK UI Components.

Launching the RTU UI Barcode Scanner

With just a few lines of code, you can integrate barcode scanning into your application’s workflow. It’s as simple as creating a new Widget to enhance your app’s functionality.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:barcode_scanner/scanbot_barcode_sdk_v2.dart';

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State<MyHomePage> createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  _startBarcodeScanner() async {
    // Create the default configuration object.
    var configuration = BarcodeScannerConfiguration();

    // TODO: configure as needed

    var result = await ScanbotBarcodeSdk.startBarcodeScanner(configuration);

    if(result.operationResult == OperationResult.SUCCESS)
    {
      // TODO: present barcode result as needed
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
        onPressed: _startBarcodeScanner,
        child: const Icon(Icons.camera),
      ),
    );
  }
}
