Anyline is mobile OCR SDK, which can be configured by yourself to scan all kinds of numbers, characters, text and codes.
The Example App provides you with many working preconfigured modules, which show the bandwith of what the SDK can scan.
- If you'd like to clone the repository you will have to use git-lfs. Use the following commands to install git-lfs.
brew install git-lfs
git lfs install
- If you prefer downloading a package, use the provided
zip
package on the releases page. Be aware that the github download zip button does not work for projects with git-lfs.
Via Maven
Add Anyline SDK to the dependencies in build.gradle
//root section of the file
repositories {
//add the anyline maven repo
maven { url 'https://anylinesdk.blob.core.windows.net/maven/'}
}
dependencies {
//add the anyline sdk as dependency (maybe adapt version name)
compile 'io.anyline:anylinesdk:3.6.1@aar'
//... your other dependencies
}
Or via local copy of the aar
Copy the .aar to the libs directory of your project (app/libs) and adapt build.gradle.
Add Anyline SDK to the dependencies in build.gradle
//root section of the file
repositories {
flatDir {
dirs 'libs'
}
}
dependencies {
compile(name:'anylinesdk-3.6.1', ext:'aar')
//... your other dependencies
}
The config file enables a quick and easy adaption of the “Scan-View”. You can either provide a json-file or use the XML-attributes in the layout file itself. A detailed description of all available attributes can be found in Anyline Config
Example barcode_view_config.json:
{
"captureResolution":"720p",
"cutout": {
"style": "rect",
"maxWidthPercent": "80%",
"alignment": "center",
"ratioFromSize": {
"width": 100,
"height": 80
},
"strokeWidth": 2,
"cornerRadius": 4,
"strokeColor": "FFFFFF",
"outerColor": "000000",
"outerAlpha": 0.3
},
"flash": {
"mode": "manual",
"alignment": "bottom_right"
},
"beepOnResult": true,
"vibrateOnResult": true,
"blinkAnimationOnResult": true,
"cancelOnResult": true
}
JSON
This config file must be located in the assets folder of your Android project.
Some of the most important config options may be:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
captureResolution | the preferred camera preview size |
cutout | defining which area of the preview will be “cutout” (analyzed to find bar/QR code) |
flash | defines the flash mode, where to place the flash symbol, etc. |
beepOnResult | enables sound on successful scanning process (for modules only) |
vibrateOnResult | provides haptic feedback for a successful scanning process (for modules only) |
blinkOnResult | visual feedback for a successful scanning process (for modules only) |
cancelOnResult | if true, the scanning process will be stopped after one result and needs to be restarted manually (for modules only) |
XML
Alternatively to a json config, it is also possible to configure the view (EnergyScanView, MrzScanView, BarcodeScanView) using XML-attributes in the layout-file.
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<at.nineyards.anyline.modules.energy.EnergyScanView
android:id="@+id/energy_scan_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:cutout_alignment="top"
app:cutout_style="rect"
app:cutout_outside_color="#55000000"
app:cutout_offset_y="120"
app:cutout_rect_corner_radius_in_dp="4"
app:cutout_stroke_width_in_dp="2"
app:cutout_stroke_color="#FFFFFF"
app:flash_mode="manual"
app:flash_alignment="bottom_right"
app:beep_on_result="true"
app:vibrate_on_result="true"
app:blink_animation_on_result="true"
app:cancel_on_result="true"

</RelativeLayout>
Add your license to your string resources (can be a separate xml file).
There are module specific options - take a look at the description of the desired module in the Anyline Documentation to get more detailed information.
