# Plural Extension: Barcode and QR Code Scanner Plugin

> This is a plugin to use Elo's hardware barcode scanners on a stationary device.

The QR code scanner plugin, which can also be used to scan barcodes, allows you to integrate a QR code scanner into your project within our no-code platform. With this plugin you can easily scan QR codes and retrieve the scanned data.

##### Adding the QR-Code-Scanner Plugin

To use the QR-Code-Scanner plugin in your project, follow these simple steps:

* Drag and drop a "Custom Plugin" element into your project workspace.

* Use this URL: [https://gh-qrscan.plural-plugins.com/](https://gh-qrscan.plural-plugins.com/)

* In "Attributes" set the variable JSON key path to *\$.result* and save it to the variable that you want to save the content of the QR-Code into.

* Configure the QR-Code-Scanner Plugin by setting the following parameters:

* `systemLanguage` (Default: `ger`): Specify the system language as "eng" for English or "ger" for German. You can also use the shortcode `#ATTRI/LanguageISO2` to automatically detect the system language. If no value is provided, the plugin will default to German (`ger`).

* `side` (Default: `right`): Choose the side where the QR-Code Scanner is located, either "left" or "right." If no value is provided, the plugin will default to the scanner being located on the right side (`right`).

Save the changes and proceed to design your project.

#### **Using the QR-Code-Scanner Plugin**

The QR-Code-Scanner plugin makes it easy to scan QR codes and collect the scanned data. Follow these steps to use the plugin effectively:

* Open the flow.

* Scan the QR-Code at the hardware scanner.

* Once the user successfully scans the QR code, the plugin will retrieve the scanned data and make it available in the `$.result` variable.

#### Example Implementation

An example implementation of the QR-Code-Scanner plugin is available for testing within our no-code platform. You can access it at [https://gh-qrscan.plural-plugins.com/](https://gh-qrscan.plural-plugins.com/).

Feel free to explore the example and see how the plugin captures and returns the scanned data.

By providing default/fallback values for the parameters, the plugin ensures a smooth user experience even if the parameters are not explicitly set in your project.

Happy building!
