Quick Scan

You can utilize the `startFoodDetection` API to scan food items through the device Camera.

How can I implement the startFoodDetection API and retrieve food items through quick scan?

/**
     * Begin food detection using the device's camera.
     * @param options - An object to determine which types of scanning should be performed.
     * @param callback - A callback to repeatedly receive food detection events as they occur.
     * @returns A `Subscription` that should be retained by the caller while food detection is running. Call `remove` on the subscription to terminate food detection.
     */
   
   // Configuration for food detection
   
  useEffect(() => {
    const config: FoodDetectionConfig = {
      detectBarcodes: true,
      detectPackagedFood: true,
      detectNutritionFacts: true,
    };

    // Start food detection and subscribe to events
    const subscription = PassioSDK.startFoodDetection(
      config,
      handleFoodDetection
    );

    // Cleanup function to unsubscribe when the component unmounts
    return () => subscription.remove();
  }, []); // Empty dependency array to run the effect only once during component mount

Example

In this , we establish the useQuickScan hook, which furnishes methods and data such as food, and use of DetectionCameraVieimport React from 'react';
