Scannr

Scannr is an app for ID scanning to obtain data from driver's licences. Protocol Launcher allows you to generate the official Scannr URL scheme links documented as scannr:// and scannr://?callbackScheme=<foo>.

Usage

There are two ways to use this library:

  • On-Demand import from subpaths enables tree-shaking and keeps bundles small.
  • Full Import from the root package is convenient but includes all app modules.

Pick On-Demand for production builds; Full Import is fine for quick scripts or demos.

Select Installation Method

Full Import
Convenient. Good for quick scripts.

Scan ID

Launch Scannr with the Android URL scheme documented as scannr://.

On-Demand
ts
import { scanId } from 'protocol-launcher/scannr'

const url = scanId()

Scan ID with iOS Callback

Launch Scannr with the iOS URL scheme documented as scannr://?callbackScheme=<foo>. The calling app must define the foo URL scheme and follow Scannr's LSApplicationQueriesSchemes setup.

On-Demand
ts
import { scanId } from 'protocol-launcher/scannr'

const url = scanId({
  callbackScheme: 'foo',
})
