@idscan/idvc2 v3.1.1

Overview

Upon being switched on, the library integrates the component of capturing the documents and faces from a video to your page.

Use cases

• Capture and determination of the document type
• Capture of pdf417
• Capture of MRZ
• Capture of faces
• Capture of QR code

Demo

Working the library for different cases you can find on our demo pages.

Recommendations

Use a modern phone with a good camera having the definition of not less than 8 megapixels. The capture must be made in a well-lighted room. A document must be located at the uniform background.

This component works in phones with the operating system Android in the browser Chrome (minimum version 93) and in phones with the operating system iOS (minimum version 14) in the browser Safari

Installation

$ npm install @idscan/idvc2

This component contains JS files which require the mandatory import into your project.

1. Before importing, it is necessary to set the webpack-configuration.

Note: The project must use the webpack 4 and later versions.

1.1. If you prefer to use neural networks from your domain, you should add the 'CopyWebpackPlugin' into the section 'plugins' which will copy the files, which are necessary for the work of the neural network, from the folder to another folder that should be selected by you.

Note: The structure inside the folder of the component 'networks' must be saved on the server with due regard to the nesting. There are binary files in the folder which do not have the extension. These files must be provided by the server with the header Content-Type: application/octet-stream.

copy-webpack-plugin v.5 and below

const CopyWebpackPlugin = require('copy-webpack-plugin');

new CopyWebpackPlugin ([{
  from: 'node_modules/@idscan/idvc2/dist/networks/*',
  to: 'networks/[name].[ext]',
  toType: 'template',
}]);

copy-webpack-plugin v.6 and above

const CopyWebpackPlugin = require('copy-webpack-plugin');

new CopyWebpackPlugin({
  patterns: [
    {
      from: 'node_modules/@idscan/idvc2/dist/networks/*',
      to: 'networks/[name][ext]',
      toType: 'template',
    },
  ],
});
