Starting the scanner

The result of KlippaScannerSDK.getCameraResult(config: CameraConfig) is a Promise, so you can get the result with:

// Call this in a method (i.e after a button press)
KlippaScannerSDK.getCameraResult(KlippaScannerConfig).then((result) => {
    console.log(`Took ${result.images.length} pictures`);
}).catch((reason) => {
    console.log(reason)
})

The content of the result object is:

{
  // Whether the MultipleDocuments option was turned on, so you can save it as default.
  "multipleDocuments": true,

  // Whether the Crop option was turned on, so you can save it as default (Android only).
  "crop": true,

  // What color option was used, so you can save it as default
  "color": "original",

  // An array of images.
  "images": [
    {
      "filePath": "example/path/to/your/image.jpg"
    }
  ]
}

The reject reason object has a code and a message, the used codes are:

  • E_LICENSE_ERROR
  • E_CANCELED
  • E_UNKNOWN_ERROR

How to use a specific version of the SDK?

Android

Edit the file android/build.gradle, add the following:

allprojects {
  // ... other definitions
  project.ext {
      klippaScannerVersion = "{version}"
  }
}

Replace the {version} value with the version you want to use.

iOS

Edit the file ios/Podfile, change the pod line of Klippa-Scanner and replace latest.podspec with {version}.podspec, replace the {version} value with the version you want to use.

How to change the texts in the scanner?

or

Add or edit the file android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml, add the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="klippa_zoom_message">Move closer to the document</string>
    <string name="klippa_image_limit_reached">You have reached the image limit</string>
    <string name="klippa_success_message">Success</string>
    <string name="klippa_image_moving_message">Moving too much</string>
    <string name="klippa_orientation_warning_message">Hold your phone in portrait mode</string>
    <string name="klippa_delete_button_text">Delete Photo</string>
    <string name="klippa_retake_button_text">Retake Photo</string>
    <string name="klippa_cancel_button_text">Cancel</string>

Important iOS notes

Older iOS versions do not ship the Swift libraries. To make sure the SDK works on older iOS versions, you can configure the build to embed the Swift libraries using the build setting EMBEDDED_CONTENT_CONTAINS_SWIFT = YES.

We started using XCFrameworks from version 0.1.0, if you want to use that version or up, you need CocoaPod version 1.9.0 or higher.

Important Android notes

When using a custom trained model for object detection, add the following to your app's build.gradle file to ensure Gradle doesn’t compress the models when building the app:

android {
    aaptOptions {
        noCompress "tflite"
    }
}

Using the Example App

  • Clone the project
  • Run npm install in both root and example folders.
  • Run npm run build in both root and example folders.
  • Run npx cap sync in example folder.
  • Run npx cap run ios or npx cap run android for whichever OS you want to run on.

Note: You will need to add your own Klippa username and password to the Podfile and build.gradle to pull the dependencies correctly. You might also need to run pod install in example/ios/App/ folder.
