How to get scan/read data

How to get scan data

Listen for scanDataStream.

/// scan data
controller.scanDataStream

How to get read data

If reading qr image from photo gallery is success, true value flows through isSuccessReadDataStream.
If reading qr image from photo gallery is failure, false value flows through isSuccessReadDataStream.
You can detect read result without isSuccessReadDataStream. You Listen for only readDataStream, it is flowed two value pattern, one is actual read data, another is null when reading is failure

/// flag of successful read
controller.isSuccessReadDataStream

/// read data
controller.readDataStream
