Please verify that this feature request has NOT been suggested before.

  • I checked and didn't find a similar feature request

Problem statement

When clicking on "Open QR code scanner" you are presented with the ability to select a camera. However not all environments allow usage of webcams or cameras; instead they use scanners or scan guns to input data, which is currently not possible with the current version of inventree 0.16.5

Suggested solution

A selectable option to change to barcode scanning with a scanner or wedge. Where the modal changes to show a text field and on enter it will submit show relevant information and reselect the text box to continue scanning.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Instead of using a modal use a page instead where continuous scanning is possible without causing potential issues with the modal running out of space or extensive scrolling.

Examples of other systems

CUI has this capability currently. It should be possible to make this change relatively easily.

The new scanning page (can be found in the navigation pane or in the command pallet with cmd + k) supports continuous scanning and text-based input.
