JavaScript SDK

Downloading the SDK

The Datalogic Javascript SDK can be downloaded from the Datalogic GitHub site.

Overview

The Datalogic JavaScript SDK allows users to write web apps that interface with the features of Datalogic Android devices through the Datalogic Enterprise Browser.

Using SDK

Once you've downloaded the JavaScript SDK files, you can include the desired API's in your HTML pages through a script tag, i.e:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="dl_barcode.js"></script>

Calls to the API may then be made in an additional script tag. Sample pages using the JavaScript SDK can be found in the repository on GitHub in the samples directory.

Namespaces

The SDK is divided into multiple namespaces, each with their own API for managing a different aspect of the device.

NamespaceDescription
DLBarcodeMgrInterface for the barcode and scanning features of the device.
DLCradleMgrInterface for the cradle features of the device.
DLKeyboardMgrInterface for the physical keyboard of the device.

Sample Web Pages

The sample web pages provided in the SDK repository demonstrate the features of the Javascript SDK. These samples are also available on the web at https://datalogic.github.io/javascript-sdk/. Please note that these pages are only designed to be used within the Datalogic Enterprise Browser.
