## Barcode Scanner Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Support for [pyzbar](https://github.com/NaturalHistoryMuseum/pyzbar) has been removed. The underlying libzbar library has
|
||||
seen no updates in 16 years and is largely unmaintained, and the pyzbar Python wrapper last saw a release in March 2022. In
|
||||
practice, pyzbar struggled with barcode detection reliability, particularly on skewed, low-contrast, or partially
|
||||
obscured barcodes. [zxing-cpp](https://github.com/zxing-cpp/zxing-cpp) is actively maintained, significantly more
|
||||
reliable at finding barcodes, and now ships pre-built wheels for both x86_64 and arm64, removing the need to build the library.
|
||||
|
||||
The `CONSUMER_BARCODE_SCANNER` setting has been removed. zxing-cpp is now the only backend.
|
||||
|
||||
### Summary
|
||||
|
||||
| Old Setting | New Setting | Notes |
|
||||
| -------------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `CONSUMER_BARCODE_SCANNER` | _Removed_ | zxing-cpp is now the only backend |
|
||||
|
||||
### Action Required
|
||||
|
||||
- If you were already using `CONSUMER_BARCODE_SCANNER=ZXING`, simply remove the setting.
|
||||
- If you had `CONSUMER_BARCODE_SCANNER=PYZBAR` or were using the default, no functional changes are needed beyond
|
||||
removing the setting. zxing-cpp supports all the same barcode formats and you should see improved detection
|
||||
reliability.
|
||||
- The `libzbar0` / `libzbar-dev` system packages are no longer required and can be removed from any custom Docker
|
||||
images or host installations.
