A 'Scan with camera' button opens the phone's own camera app; the photo is shrunk
on the phone and read on the server with zbarimg, then goes through the normal add
flow (also available on the sticker step). Works over plain HTTP on iPhone and
Android - no HTTPS needed.
- /api/scan: JPEG/PNG only (checked by magic bytes before ImageMagick sees it),
12 MB cap, login required, 20 s timeout, temp files cleaned up
- UPC-A reads (zbar reports 13 digits with a leading zero) normalised to the 12
digits printed on the item so duplicate checks match
- tests/gen_photos.py + tests/check_scan.py: phone-like photos (tilt, blur, noise,
low light, upside down, EXIF rotation, small, UPC, Code 39 sticker); 10/10 read
at the size the page sends

A '|| true' at the end of the install chain swallowed any earlier failure, so a
transient/blocked apt step produced a successful build with no Koha in it (found
when an update rebuilt without the proxy CA). Steps are now separate, memcached and
cron are installed explicitly, and a final step refuses to produce an image that is
missing koha-create, memcached, cron, apache2ctl, zebrasrv, ... Quick Add's image
verifies yaz and python3 the same way.

A small standard-library Python service next to Koha:
- looks the code up via Z39.50 (yaz) then Open Library over HTTPS
- checks Koha for an existing copy (ISBN-10/13 and UPC/EAN aware)
- adds the record + an item with the next barcode via Koha's REST API
- scanner-friendly UI: auto-focus, audible feedback, duplicate card with
'add another copy', manual entry when nothing is found, undo, and the
barcode range to print labels for
Also: enable RESTBasicAuth, map 024$a to the ean column, wire the service,
port and credentials into compose/install.sh.
