App Scan Serialized GS1-128 Code

[maherpa2]

PL user story: #93 (see full overview for additional information)

Description: Changes to the App and decoding in order to be able to scan a GS1-128 1D code:

• The ability to scan and decode a 1D Code that has : AI01 (GTIN) AI21 (Serial Number) AI10 (Batch Number) AI17 (Expiry Date)

• The rules for decoding and finding the Anchor could be:

• Some sample codes:

Acceptance criteria's: positive tests

• Create a serialized Batch.
• Encode the the correct GTIN, Serial Number, Batch Number and Lot.
• Scan the Code and the ePI should be shown.
• This is no different than when testing a Serialized Datamatrix code

negative tests / error path testing

• Create 1D codes with an incorrect Batch, Exp Date etc. Same negative tests as when testing a Datamatrix code.

Process scenario:

• N/A

Additional information: The fact that the code is a 1D code or a Datamatrix code should not matter to the end user. Create a 1D code and a Datamatrix code with the same information and the end result must be the same i.e. the ePI is shown or the serial number etc. check passes/ fails.

• Not important at the moment
• Not used by the end users
• Used in logistics on pallets etc, not on drug box.

Current open-source solution ZXing (https://github.com/zxing/zxing) is NOT capable of scanning this code.

Testing node: in theory the ZXing library is able to scan GS1-128 and uploading an image works, the issues comes with the length of the code - in order to put the gtin batch and expiry date the code is quite long and the camera of the opensource does not catch it.

Scandit should work.

Yet to test - Dependency on Scandit and release of native apps
