Usage

Import package:mobile_scanner/mobile_scanner.dart, and use the widget with or without the controller.

If you don't provide a controller, you can't control functions like the torch(flash) or switching camera.

Example without controller:

import 'package:mobile_scanner/mobile_scanner.dart';

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Mobile Scanner')),
      body: MobileScanner(
          onDetect: (barcode, args) {
            final String code = barcode.rawValue;
            debugPrint('Barcode found! $code');
          }),
    );
  }

Example with controller and initial values:

import 'package:mobile_scanner/mobile_scanner.dart';

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Mobile Scanner')),
      body: MobileScanner(
          controller: MobileScannerController(
            facing: CameraFacing.front, torchEnabled: true),
          onDetect: (barcode, args) {
            final String code = barcode.rawValue;
            debugPrint('Barcode found! $code');
          }),
    );
  }

Example with controller and torch & camera controls:

import 'package:mobile_scanner/mobile_scanner.dart';

  MobileScannerController cameraController = MobileScannerController();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(
          title: const Text('Mobile Scanner'),
          actions: [
            IconButton(
              color: Colors.white,
              icon: ValueListenableBuilder(
                valueListenable: cameraController.torchState,
                builder: (context, state, child) {
                  switch (state as TorchState) {
                    case TorchState.off:
                      return const Icon(Icons.flash_off, color: Colors.grey);
                    case TorchState.on:
                      return const Icon(Icons.flash_on, color: Colors.yellow);
                  }
                },
              ),
              iconSize: 32.0,
              onPressed: () => cameraController.toggleTorch(),
            ),
            IconButton(
              color: Colors.white,
              icon: ValueListenableBuilder(
                valueListenable: cameraController.cameraFacingState,
                builder: (context, state, child) {
                  switch (state as CameraFacing) {
                    case CameraFacing.front:
                      return const Icon(Icons.camera_front);
                    case CameraFacing.back:
                      return const Icon(Icons.camera_rear);
                  }
                },
              ),
              iconSize: 32.0,
              onPressed: () => cameraController.switchCamera(),
            ),
          ],
        ),
        body: MobileScanner(
            controller: cameraController,
            onDetect: (barcode, args) {
              final String code = barcode.rawValue;
              debugPrint('Barcode found! $code');
            }));
  }
