Same issue here, trying to read and getting:

Did you try demo-ng? Instructions at the top of this readme: https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/nativescript-plugin-firebase/blob/master/docs/ML_KIT.md

@EddyVerbruggen did all what you mentioned and the barcode scanner doesn't works on ios !

[EddyVerbruggen]

Does anyone else have this exact problem?

[gitgmontoya]

same issue on IOS 13.3.1, Iphone 7 Plus. The same project is working fine in Android >= 9. I'm using Nativescript-Vue. I can see what the camera is watching but the scanResult doesn't get triggered. tns-ios: version: 6.4.0 nativescript-plugin-firebase: ^10.4.0 XCode 11.3.1

[gitgmontoya]

fixed by reinstalling the plugin and reconfiguring it.

@EddyVerbruggen Hey eddy, I'm sorry to bother, I am hitting this guy too, and I have no idea, man it's driving me nuts. I have reinstalled the plugin and ios platform more than I care to admit :)

Tried disabling beep

CONSOLE LOG file: node_modules/nativescript-plugin-firebase/mlkit/barcodescanning/index.ios.js:37:0: Barcode engine is nil.
6.16.0 - [Firebase/MLKit][I-MLK006006] Barcode engine is nil.

<Firebase:MLKitBarcodeScanner
                                class="scanner-cam mb-20"
                                width="350"
                                height="350"
                                beepOnScan="false"
                                formats="QR_CODE"
                                scanResult="onBarcodeScanningResult" />

I see the preview, but the success handler just trips the error handler every run

same problem, works fine on Android.

I solved this by adding "ml_kit_barcode_scanning": true in the firebase.nativescript.json, and rebuild project after remove node_modules and platform.
