Changes: - added optional config parameter to pyzbar.pyzbar.decode - the structure is a nested dictionary where the keys are ZBarSymbol objects, and the values are dicts of ZBarConfig-value key-value pairs Explanation: I am submitting this PR to accomodate our use case of using I25 barcodes that are only 2 digits. ZBar defaults to a minimum length of 6 for I25 codes, and we had no way to change that in the current pyzbar. While I was in the code, I figured I would make it generic to allow changing any config option(s) for any symbol. The structure of the config object is admittedly a bit complicated. I decided to make it a nested dict for 2 reasons: 1. to allow changing barcode settings for each individual code rather than for all codes 2. to allow passing only the config object without passing the symbols object

@quicklizard99 Please let me know if this could be included in the next release as it includes changes we need for our use of pyzbar at Chick-fil-A. If not we will have to build our own package based on my fork. Thanks. |

@quicklizard99 any updates? We are hoping to continue using the main repo rather than our own fork. |
