Barcodely

Send barcode events to Odoo.

This allows us to test barcode functionality without the need of an barcode scanner.

There are other options out there, albeit, they are: Heavy, require a mobile app, subscription based, etc.

How does it work?

Exporting keyboard events using pyautogui and focusing Odoo window using xdotool.

What Works

• Send barcode events
• Save barcodes to listbox

What's missing

• Persistent barcodes in listbox
• User configuration (eg. Window title names, etc)
• Systray
• Executable

Installation

Install xdotool

sudo apt update && sudo apt install xdotool

Install python3 requirements

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
