SAP Fiori with OCR, QR code scanner plug-in

[former_member47197]

Dear Experts,

In Fiori iOS design guidelines we have OCR, QR code scanner included but we do not have any of these plug-in's available in CORDOVA, so how can we enable the OCR, QR code scanner on Fiori using a 3rd party software or middleware?

Does SAP has any plans to consider and provide a plug-in or include them in standard Fiori applications?

If not which 3rd party OCR, QR code plug-in works with SAP Fiori considering the future versions?

Thank you...

SAP added a web Fiori Barcode/QR scanner in newer SAPUI5 versions. The control is using the sap.ndc namespace. As this is the same namespace used previously by Fiori Mobile Client to call the Cordova plugin, switching from Cordova to web version is very easy.

For any other needed functionality, you can develop your own control. With typescript coming it should be easier to include 3rd party modules. For getting functionality added to SAPUI5 you'll have to convince SAP to add it.
