This is the scanner used for the development; its affordable; has a good free api, add a used laptop and connect to your server. Its built to be pocket-friendly.

@noetico thanks for sharing! Did you also include some docs?

33

@mehta, there’s just a short setup and usage file included. It’s my hope that we’ll have something fuller shortly. Is it possible to help properly put this on github? Never used it before, so I wouldn’t want to host something unusable. Thanks.

GitHub is really nice to use, might take a few days to get familiar though. Once you get a hang of it, I promise you will never look back!

Try git first: https://try.github.io/

This seems like a good guide: Hello World - GitHub Docs

Thank You so much @noetico

If anybody has tested this with Scanning devices other than Futronic’s fs80h, then kindly share your experiences.

37

@xainch For the moment; it will work for the futronic fs80h. But I think now that it’s out there; we’ll be able to add more devices using their apis. One challenge is; I believe; for fingerprint capture; there are various implementations so it will be a matter of coding various apis and allowing the user select the device to use; with some more effort; we can also have code that enumerates usb ports and identifies the device plugged in and uses the driver.

The fs80h is a good device by the way. You can start with that and get results.

38

sorry this somehow slipped my attention. Do you still need help to put it on github?

btw … the link you have provided does not seem to load properly, so it seems the code is not accessible right now.

39

DIY: Arduino Board, touchscreen, fingerprint sensor … maybe?

Hi @vrms, I shared a onedrive link. Is that link unavailable?

41

I actually just tried again 10 minutes ago and could download your Git-Thumb-Relase.zip

do you already have an account on github or bitbucket (Github would be the more common provider in the ERPNext world)? If so, what’s your username/ID?

42

@vrms sorry; I just looked closely at your mail. You have a link. Indeed there seems to be a problem on onedrive; I think it’s microsoft because I can’t access my drive as a whole.

Once I do; I’ll share a link. Thanks.

I actually just tried again 10 minutes ago and could download and unzip the Git-Thumb-Relase.zip

do you already have an account on github or bitbucket (Github would be the more common provider in the ERPNext world)?

If so, what’s your username/ID?
Also we should have a meaninfull name for the App I suggest fingerprint-attendance. Does that work for you?

44

Thanks a lot @vrms, my git account name is noetico, and yes, the name is fine by me. Thanks a lot.

45

sorry I didn’t realize that Thumb was your name. Still maybe erpnext_fingerprint-attendance is a bit clearer for everyone.

is the zip file in here GitHub - noetico/thumb: Time and Attendance App for ERPNext identical with the one from here https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aid3w9N-oNFsmj3Oy5uap4YHeZ-E ?

Haha. @vrms, thumb is not my name; that is the initial app name.

47

haha, that’s what I meant. App name = “Thumb”

Hi @noetico @vrms

Any further updates on this?

Cheers!
