Using front camera and enabling flash light??

Hi and thank you :)

At the moment, no options are supported. Additional options are planned, but I do not expect to be able to release anything until next year. If you are able to extend this plugin I would love to pull your changes :)

Hey thanks a lot.. I am currently very new to the Cordova world. If you can guide me a little on how to do that, i can give it a try.

If you would like to contribute to this project, first you should understand how Cordova Plugins are written. Next, if you are interested in modifying this library for Android, you may read about Android Intents

In order to extend this library to do what you want, you will need to do 2 things.

1. Pass the options from JavaScript to the native plugin code.
2. In the native plugin code, pass the relevant options, based on the options set in JavaScript, to the ZBar library. Do that in:

• iOS: https://github.com/tjwoon/csZBar/blob/master/ios/CsZBar.m
• Android: https://github.com/tjwoon/csZBar/blob/master/android/ZBar.java

If you are in a hurry, the fastest way to do what you want is to just hardcode the options you need in the iOS and Android files above.

Thanks a lot man.. I will try that and update this thread on how that can be achieved.

Added support for "camera" and "flash" options in v1.2.0. Please see the latest README. Relevant parameters below:

{
    camera: "front" || "back" // defaults to "back"
    flash: "on" || "off" || "auto" // defaults to "auto". See Quirks
}
