Flutter Web and QR code scanning

One common application feature is QR code scanning. This is now possible on the Web so I played around with some jsQR scanning library (ended up choosing Cozmo jsQR since it was working on iOS and Android).

And since Flutter Web is making some progress that starts to make it a real solution for apps on the Web, I wrote a simple package to scan QR code on the Web.

The code is available here with a simple online demo that should work on iOS and Android.

Fixing "DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=109, too big" in Android Studio

This happened to me in Android Studio after AndroidX migration and using the new testing framework. Even deleting the existing ~/.android/debug.keystore was failing for me The solution was regenerate it manually (accept all questions as empty and say yes at the last one) $ keytool -genkey -v -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -alias androiddebugkey -keypass android -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 And copy it $ rm ~/.android/debug.keystore $ cp debug.keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore

Simple Samba setup on Lubuntu

I have a simple lubuntu server where I setup a ssh server. While it is sufficient to access a driver/folder from another linux machine using sftp, it is a pain from Windows & Mac, so unfortunately, samba is still needed here. For simplicity I needed only one samba user that I could map to a single user on my lubuntu machine Following the various tutorial I ended up doing this with simple commands Install samba $ sudo apt-get install samba Add myuser to the samba $ sudo smbpasswd -a myuser Export the drive I needed (no guest user) $ sudo vi /etc/samba/smb.conf to add the following export (no real option needed here) [files] path = /media/music/files writeable = yes save and Restart samba $ sudo service smbd restart

Solving: insufficient permissions for device: user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong

This happens on Ubuntu almost each time I add a new device: Check that your are in plugdev group $ id uid=1000(alex) gid=1000(alex) groups=1000(alex),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),116(lpadmin),126(sambashare),127(kvm),129(libvirt),134(chrome-remote-desktop) If not (i.e. plugdev not displayed), add it: $ sudo usermod -aG plugdev alex If you get 'insufficient permissions for device: user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong' when trying to debug, you'll need to add your device: First i used lsusb to find my vendor id (here I guess google) $ lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub ...
