This package provides a js based implementation for variouse languages used for label printers

Layers

The packages is logacally divided into multiple sub layers. These are not separate modules per say, but separated parts of the code that serve different purposes

1. Command Layer

This layer provides a low lever wrapper for the different languages commands. Using this module, you can create commands that suite your needs the best or you can integrate this pacakge in your codebase

TODO

  • Finish implementing basic commands
  • Add example code

2. Label layer

This layer provides a language independent API to construct a label (object representation) without any knowledge of the fine details of the printer the label will be printed on.

TODO

  • Add example code
  • Implement layer

3. Printer layer

This layer contains code to interact with printers

TODO
