Require Barcode AND PIN for authentication? #32

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Our org is in the nasty habit of adding hoops for patrons to jump through to 
use self-checkout.  Namely:  we require a PIN to use self-checkout.

Any chance of seeing this built into authentication?
Using the latest version as of today...

Just searching through my options...looking to dump 3M's cost like hot tar on a 
new highway.  THANKS!

Are your pins numeric or alphanumeric?

Numeric, fine sir!

It should be possible and not that difficult but I'll need a few days -we're 
working on opening a maker space so it's kind of crazy here.

Hello, Mr. Melton!  How is the "maker space" going?  Got those librarians 
teaching patrons how to use 3-D modeling software?  ;)

Was wondering if you needed any more information from me?  THANKS!

I sincerely apologize. It's unlikely I'm going to get around to this soon. I've 
just started a new position as director at a library in the middle of changing 
their ILS and am going to be pretty busy.

Well, no reason to apologize!  Best wishes from Bellingham WA in your new
endeavor (and new ILS)!  If I get a solution put together, I'll let you
know here...

So I just stumbled on this project.  We also use barcode and pin to 
authenticate. Currently we use envisionware for our selfcheck out needs but 
have switched ILS's from vtls to polaris and wanted to try something new 
possibly. I have been looking at the code and it looks like in home.php in  
$('#form').submit(function(){ 
after $barcode=$('#barcode');
would be a good place to start a script to open a second keypad and then 
continue on with the code that is there.  The pin variable would have to be 
sent to the account_check.php page with the barcode.  Has anyone had any luck 
with this?

The file includes/keypad.php would be a good place to start. The keypad was 
originally intended to allow patrons to manually enter their card numbers but 
could be reconfigured to handle pins instead. You might look at triggering the 
keypad when a barcode is scanned -look at the $('#form').submit(function(){ in 
pages/home.php where you could trigger this. If you're familiar with jquery, 
you should be able to pull this off -otherwise, it might be a bit of a 
challenge.
