README

A Filament v3 & v4 plugin for HTML5 QR/barcode camera scanning. Opens a Filament modal with live camera feed, supports multi-camera switching, handles permissions gracefully, and integrates directly with Livewire.

Features

• Zero configuration - works out of the box
• Multi-camera support - switch between front/back cameras
• Permission handling - friendly help messages when camera is denied
• Livewire integration - scanned value sent directly to your component
• Filament native - uses Filament modals, buttons, and styling
• Dark mode support
• Localized - English and Spanish included, easily extendable
• Mobile ready - iOS Safari, Android Chrome, desktop browsers
• Camera persistence - remembers last selected camera via localStorage

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+
• Laravel 10.0+
• Filament 3.0+ or 4.0+

Installation

composer require emuniq/filament-qr-scanner

That's it! The plugin auto-registers to all Filament panels.

Usage

Basic

Add the component to any Livewire/Filament page:

<x-qr-camera-scanner />

Then in your Livewire component:

public string $scanInput = '';

public function processScan(): void
{
    $qr = trim($this->scanInput);
    $this->scanInput = '';

    // Do something with $qr...
}

Custom Props

<x-qr-camera-scanner
    wire-model="myProperty"
    wire-action="myMethod"
    button-label="Scan Product"
    button-color="success"
    button-size="md"
    modal-heading="Scan Product QR"
    :fps="15"
    :qrbox-size="300"
/>

Available Props

Translations

English and Spanish are included. To add your own:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=filament-qr-scanner-translations

Then edit lang/vendor/filament-qr-scanner/{locale}/scanner.php.

How It Works

1. User clicks the camera button
2. Requests camera permission (with fallback constraints)
3. Opens a Filament modal with live camera feed
4. On successful scan, sets the Livewire property and calls the action
5. Automatically stops camera and closes modal

Uses html5-qrcode v2.3.8 loaded on demand via x-load-js.
