Hi,

We recommend that you use DataWedge, which is an intent based mechanism for controlling the scanner on our devices. We have complete documentation for that here: https://techdocs.zebra.com/datawedge/11-1/guide/about/

In terms of React Native, it would be a case of creating your own wrapper for our DataWedge APIs in React. We don't have anything officially supported, though one of my colleagues has a sample here: https://github.com/darryncampbell/DataWedgeReactNative

can you please provide us with updated examples and doc on the subject please : all the links are deprecated !

Hi,

please checkout this NPM package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-datawedge-intents

yes thks I saw it , look at its github link : it is in archive == deprecated - even that i tested : does not work , far too old

It was recently archived due to the maintainer moving on from Zebra, the last update was also just 7 months ago so should at least provide a starting point for your own integration efforts as unfortunately this isn't an officially supported repository.

In any case, I've passed your feedback onto our engineering teams to consider introducing official support for React.

thank you , I wait for your updated infos. (eventhough it was 7 months old, it was deprecated, syntaxes have change a lot since)
