Getting started

Docutain SDK Dependencies​

The Docutain Barcode Scanner SDK for Android is distributed through Maven repositories which you have to specify in your top-level build.gradle file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        //release versions of the Docutain SDK
        mavenCentral()
        //Snapshot versions of the Docutain SDK
        maven { url "https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/" }
    }
}
caution

If you are using dependencyResolutionManagement with RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS in your settings.gradle file, make sure you have added the Docutain SDK repositories only in this specific block (instead of using allprojects repositories block in the build.gradle file):

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        //release versions of the Docutain SDK
        mavenCentral()
        //Snapshot versions of the Docutain SDK
        maven { url "https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/" }
    }
}

Afterwards, you can add the dependency to your build.gradle file:

def docutainBarcodeSdkVersion = '1.0.0.0'
implementation("de.docutain:Docutain-SDK-Barcode:$docutainBarcodeSdkVersion")
