react-native-passport-reader

Adapted from passport-reader. Individual modifications are too many to enumerate, but essentially: the workflow code was adapted to the needs of a React Native module, and the scanning code was largely left as is.

Getting started

1$ npm install react-native-passport-reader --save
2$ react-native link react-native-passport-reader

In your android/app/build.gradle add packagingOptions:

android {
    ...
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
    }
}

In AndroidManifest.xml add:

1<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
2<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.nfc" android:required="false" />

If your app will not function without nfc capabilities, set android:required above to true

Usage

1import PassportReader from 'react-native-passport-reader'
2// { scan, cancel, isSupported }
3
4async function scan() {
5     const {
6       comFile,
7       sodFile,
8       dg1File,
9       dg2File,
10       dg13File,
11       dg14File,
12       dg15File
13     } = await IdChipReader.scan({
14       documentNumber: '199004922',
15       dateOfBirth: '990605',
16       dateOfExpiry: '390605'
17     })
18    }
