BarcodeReaderDesktop

Read barcodes and feed them to your desktop with your mobile.
Transform your phone into a barcode reader.
No need to buy a scanner.
Get the mobile app here. Get a release from github or you can build it yourself (Requires JDK15).

Windows

  • Might need Visual C++ Resistributable 2015 on windows to run because of how jpackage makes native launchers.
  • Needs network access(Obviously).
  • To start the server at boot, add a shortcut to server.exe in the startup directory (%USER_DIR%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup).

Linux

  • The start server button in the GUI app won't work if launched from shortcut created by default. (GUI must run from the app directory (barcode-reader) but the created shortcut starts it from the home directory(the icon is also the default java app icon, probably because the packager I've used: jpackage is an inclubator module and bugs haven't been worked out)).
  • If the start server button does not work, just run install-dir/bin/server directly. (default install directory is /opt/barcode-reader)
  • To start the server at boot, search Startup Applications, add bin/server to the list.
