NAME

       Barcode::ZBar - Perl interface to the ZBar Barcode Reader

SYNOPSIS

       setup:

           use Barcode::ZBar;

           my $reader = Barcode::ZBar::Processor->new();
           $reader->init();
           $reader->set_data_handler(\&my_handler);

       scan an image:

           my $image = Barcode::ZBar::Image->new();
           $image->set_format('422P');
           $image->set_size(114, 80);
           $image->set_data($raw_bits);
           $reader->process_image($image);

       scan from video:

           $reader->set_visible();
           $reader->set_active();
           $reader->user_wait();

       collect results:

           my @symbols = $image->get_symbols();
           foreach my $sym (@symbols) {
               print("decoded: " . $sym->get_type() . ":" . $sym->get_data());
           }

DESCRIPTION

       The ZBar Bar Code Reader is a library for scanning and decoding bar codes from various
       sources such as video streams, image files or raw intensity sensors.  It supports EAN,
       UPC, Code 128, Code 39 and Interleaved 2 of 5.

       These are the bindings for interacting directly with the library from Perl.

           Increases global library debug by one level.

       set_verbosity(level)
           Sets global library debug to the indicated level.  Higher numbers give more verbosity.

       parse_config(configstr)
