* Feature: store barcode contents, list and search them New setting PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_STORE_BARCODE_VALUES (off by default) stores all barcodes found during consumption with the document: page, type and content. They are listed on the metadata tab with a copy button, returned by the documents API and searchable with barcodes: in the advanced search. Versions keep their own barcodes, reprocessing reads them again. Refs #9898 * Tests: cover the remaining barcode branches Covers unchanged and failing barcode reads on reprocessing, unsupported files and DocumentBarcode.__str__, and uses toHaveLength in the barcode list spec as suggested by SonarCloud. * Address review: keep barcodes when they can't be read, format choices - Reprocessing and new versions keep the stored barcodes when the file can't be scanned or the scan fails, and replace them atomically. - Format is a TextChoices of the zxing-cpp formats, with a test. - Shared scan code, latest_version helper, TypedDict, serializer reuse. - Barcodes in the split manifest, export/import tests, pytest-style tests. * Barcode tests: TIFF reprocess, format check both ways, fixtures - Reprocessing a TIFF with TIFF support off keeps the stored barcodes. - The format test also fails when zxing-cpp drops a format. - Fixtures in place of the sample dir mixin, plugin-level disabled test. - Format labels aren't translated, OpenAPI enum named BarcodeFormatEnum. * Review: module-level zxing reader, shorter barcode docs - read_barcodes_zxing is a module-level function used by scan_pdf. - Drop the trivial __str__ test, mark it no cover. - Shorten the barcode docs and remove the duplicate in configuration.md. * Fix header * Use utility class * Return barcodes from the metadata endpoint only Drop the barcodes field and its prefetches from the document serializer, as agreed in the review. Also remove the now empty component stylesheet. --------- Co-authored-by: shamoon <4887959+shamoon@users.noreply.github.com>
Paperless-ngx
Paperless-ngx is a document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive so you can keep, well, less paper.
Paperless-ngx is the official successor to the original Paperless & Paperless-ng projects and is designed to distribute the responsibility of advancing and supporting the project among a team of people. Consider joining us!
Thanks to the generous folks at DigitalOcean, a demo is available at demo.paperless-ngx.com using login demo / demo. Note: demo content is reset frequently and confidential information should not be uploaded.
Features
A full list of features and screenshots are available in the documentation.
Getting started
The easiest way to deploy paperless is docker compose. The files in the /docker/compose directory are configured to pull the image from the GitHub container registry.
If you'd like to jump right in, you can configure a docker compose environment with our install script:
bash -c "$(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/main/install-paperless-ngx.sh)"
More details and step-by-step guides for alternative installation methods can be found in the documentation.
Migrating from Paperless-ng is easy, just drop in the new docker image! See the documentation on migrating for more details.

Important Note
Document scanners are typically used to scan sensitive documents like your social insurance number, tax records, invoices, etc. Paperless-ngx should never be run on an untrusted host because information is stored in clear text without encryption. No guarantees are made regarding security (but we do try!) and you use the app at your own risk. The safest way to run Paperless-ngx is on a local server in your own home with backups in place.
