Getting started

Android

Edit the file android/build.gradle, add the Klippa Maven repository:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        // ... other repositories

        maven {
            credentials {
                username "{your-username}"
                password "{your-password}"
            }
            url "https://custom-ocr.klippa.com/sdk/android/maven"
        }
    }
}

Replace the {your-username} and {your-password} values with the ones provided by Klippa.

If you're using gradle 7+ you will need to change copyDownloadableDepsToLibs in the app/build.gradle. It should now look like:

task copyDownloadableDepsToLibs(type: Copy) {
    from configurations.implementation
    into 'libs'
}

iOS

Edit the file ios/Podfile, add the Klippa CocoaPod:

// Add this to the top of your file:
// Edit the platform to a minimum of 13.0, our SDK doesn't support earlier versions.

platform :ios, '13.0'

if "#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_USERNAME']}" == ""
  ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_USERNAME'] = '{your-username}'
end

if "#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_PASSWORD']}" == ""
  ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_PASSWORD'] = '{your-password}'
end

# // Edit the Runner config to add the pod:

target ‘YourApplicationName’ do
  // ... other instructions

  // Add this below `use_react_native`

  if "#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_URL']}" == ""
    file_path = File.expand_path('../node_modules/@klippa/react-native-klippa-scanner-sdk/ios/.sdk_repo', __dir__)
    ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_URL'] = File.read(file_path).strip
  end

  if "#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_VERSION']}" == ""
    file_path = File.expand_path('../node_modules/@klippa/react-native-klippa-scanner-sdk/ios/.sdk_version', __dir__)
    ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_VERSION'] = File.read(file_path).strip
  end

  pod 'Klippa-Scanner', podspec: "#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_URL']}/#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_USERNAME']}/#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_PASSWORD']}/KlippaScanner/#{ENV['KLIPPA_SCANNER_SDK_VERSION']}.podspec"

end

Replace the {your-username} and {your-password} values with the ones provided by Klippa.

Edit the file ios/{project-name}/Info.plist and add the NSCameraUsageDescription value:

...
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Access to your camera is needed to photograph documents.</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription</key>
<string>Access to your photo library is used to save the images of documents.</string>
...

React native

$ npm install @klippa/react-native-klippa-scanner-sdk --save

Don't forget to run pod install in the ios folder when running the iOS app.

Mostly automatic installation (only for versions of React Native lower than 0.60, later versions have auto-linking)

$ react-native link @klippa/react-native-klippa-scanner-sdk

Usage

import KlippaScannerSDK from '@klippa/react-native-klippa-scanner-sdk';

// Ask for camera permission.
KlippaScannerSDK.getCameraPermission().then((authStatus) => {
    if (authStatus.Status !== "Authorized") {
        // Do something here to tell the user how they should enable the camera.
        Alert.alert("No access to camera");

});

The result of KlippaScannerSDK.getCameraResult() is a Promise, so you can get the result with:

KlippaScannerSDK.getCameraResult(options).then((result) => {
    console.log(result);
}).catch((reason) => {
    console.log(reason);
});

The content of the result object is:

{
  // Whether the MultipleDocuments option was turned on, so you can save it as default.
  "MultipleDocuments": true,

  // Whether the Crop option was turned on, so you can save it as default (Android only).
  "Crop": true,

  // What color option was used, so you can save it as default (Android only).
  "Color": "original",

  // An array of images.
  "Images": [
    {
      "Filepath": "/sdcard/scanner/dd0ca979-84e1-426e-8877-586e802fed1f.jpg"
    }
  ]
}

The reject reason object has a code and a message, the used codes are:

How to use a specific version of the SDK?

Android

Edit the file android/build.gradle, add the following:

allprojects {
  // ... other definitions
  project.ext {
      klippaScannerVersion = "{version}"
  }
}

Replace the {version} value with the version you want to use.

iOS

Edit the file ios/Podfile, change the pod line of Klippa-Scanner and replace latest.podspec with {version}.podspec, replace the {version} value with the version you want to use.

How to change the image in the instructions?

Android

Add an XML file in android/app/src/res/drawable/ with name klippa_camera_mode_single_document.xml to change the image in Single Document Mode. Add an XML file in android/app/src/res/drawable/ with name klippa_camera_mode_multiple_documents.xml to change the image in Multiple Document Mode. Add an XML file in android/app/src/res/drawable/ with name klippa_camera_mode_segmented_document.xml to change the image in Segmented Document Mode.

iOS

Use the following properties in the config:

// Change the default image in the Single Document Mode instructions.
CameraModeSingle: {name: "Name", message: "Message", image: "{name of image in Assets.xcassets}"}
// Change the default image in the Multi Document Mode instructions.
CameraModeMulti: {name: "Name", message: "Message", image: "{name of image in Assets.xcassets}"}
// Change the default image in the Segmented Document Mode instructions.
CameraModeSegmented: {name: "Name", message: "Message", image: "{name of image in Assets.xcassets}"}

Important iOS notes

Older iOS versions do not ship the Swift libraries. To make sure the SDK works on older iOS versions, you can configure the build to embed the Swift libraries using the build setting EMBEDDED_CONTENT_CONTAINS_SWIFT = YES.

We started using XCFrameworks from version 0.1.0, if you want to use that version or up, you need CocoaPod version 1.9.0 or higher.

Important Android notes

When using a custom trained model for object detection, add the following to your app's build.gradle file to ensure Gradle doesn’t compress the models when building the app:

android {
    aaptOptions {
        noCompress "tflite"
    }
}
