How to use

This package exposes 2 methods scanner for initializing the scanner and addChangeListener for attaching a listener for scan events, which then can be acted upon.

Example usage:

import {
  addChangeListener,
  ChangeEventPayload,
  scanner,
} from "expo-urovo-scanner-module";

const [isScannerReady, setIsScannerReady] = useState(false);

const handleScanEvent = useCallback(
    (val: ChangeEventPayload) => {

    // do something
}, [])


useEffect(() => {
    console.log("[Scanner] Setting up listener, ready:", isScannerReady);

    let sub: Subscription | undefined;

    if (isScannerReady) {
      if (__DEV__) {
        console.log("[Scanner] Skipping listener in dev mode");
      } else {
        sub = addChangeListener(handleScanEvent);
        console.log("[Scanner] Listener added");
      }
    }

    return () => {
      if (sub) {
        console.log("[Scanner] Cleaning up listener");
        sub.remove();
      }
    };
  }, [isScannerReady, handleScanEvent]);


useEffect(() => {
    if (!__DEV__) {
        scanner();
    }
    setIsScannerReady(true);
}, []);
