• registerForNotification() - Register for status notifications
• unRegisterForNotification() - Unregister from notifications

import { DataWedge } from 'capacitor-datawedge-plugin';

// Initialize scanner
await DataWedge.enableDatawedge();
await DataWedge.enableScannerInput();

// Register scan listener
await DataWedge.registerScanListener();

// Listen for scan events
DataWedge.addListener('scanReceived', (event) => {
  console.log('Barcode:', event.data);
  console.log('Type:', event.labelType);
});

// Create and configure profile
await DataWedge.createProfile({ profileName: 'MyApp' });

const config = {
  profileName: 'MyApp',
  profileEnabled: true,
  configMode: 'UPDATE',
  config: {
    PLUGIN_CONFIG: {
      PLUGIN_NAME: 'INTENT',
      PARAM_LIST: {
        intent_output_enabled: 'true',
        intent_action: 'com.yourapp.SCAN',
        intent_delivery: '2'
      }
    }
  }
};
await DataWedge.setConfig(config);

// Trigger scan programmatically
await DataWedge.softScanTrigger({ action: 'START_SCANNING' });

Triggered when barcode/RFID data is scanned:

{
  data: string;        // Scanned data
  labelType: string;   // Barcode type (EAN13, CODE128, etc.)
  timestamp: number;   // Scan timestamp
}

Status and configuration change notifications:

{
  type: string;  // SCANNER_STATUS, PROFILE_SWITCH, etc.
  data: any;     // Notification-specific data
}

Configure a DataWedge profile with:

1. Intent Output: Enable with action matching your app (e.g., com.yourapp.SCAN)
2. Intent Delivery: Set to Broadcast (2)
3. Associated App: Your app's package name
4. Scanner Input: Enable desired scanner types

• Android: API 22+ (Android 5.1+)
• DataWedge: 6.0+ (11.4 recommended)
• Capacitor: 7.0.0+
• Device: Zebra/Symbol/Motorola with DataWedge
