#:import ZBarSymbol pyzbar.pyzbar.ZBarSymbol
BoxLayout:
    orientation: 'vertical'
    ZBarCam:
        id: zbarcam
        # optional, by default checks all types
        code_types: ZBarSymbol.QRCODE, ZBarSymbol.EAN13
    Label:
        size_hint: None, None
        size: self.texture_size[0], 50
        text: ', '.join([str(symbol.data) for symbol in zbarcam.symbols])

A full working demo is available in src/main.py.
