Based on the given output for the first one, barcodescanner it looks like it
might include its own gradle files which hasn't been updated.
> Could not find method compile()
This refers to dependency references, in most cases the suitable replacement
is `implementation`.
Old:
```
dependencies {
compile 'foo:1.0.0'
}
```
New:
```
dependencies {
implementation 'foo:1.0.0'
}
```
> A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> compileSdkVersion is not specified. Please add it to build.gradle
This is saying that the `app` module (a module that Cordova manages) is
missing `compileSdkVersion`. Does not appear to be related to the plugin. So
this suggest that you might be using an older cordova-android version, but
perhaps with gradle version overrided. cordova-android@13 should be setting
this property in its builds. It might be that the plugin is causing the native
project to not fully generate too.
For the QR scanner plugin, it looks like it suffers from the same issues,
but I had a peak at
https://github.com/bitpay/cordova-plugin-qrscanner/blob/master/src/android/qrscanner.gradle
and it uses `jcenter` which is now defunct. If the required dependencies are
not available elsewhere this plugin may not be fixable.
Additionally it uses `com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.0` which might
not be compatible with AndroidX applications (which Cordova now uses).
> Is it possible that there are no plugins to scan qr code?... or is there
another way that I haven't evaluated?
Certainly is possible. You can try scanning through forks
(https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner/forks or
https://github.com/bitpay/cordova-plugin-qrscanner/forks), or even fork the
plugin itself. It seems obvious that the original authors are no longer
maintaining these plugins. Alternatively [a new
plugin](https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/12.x/guide/hybrid/plugins/index.html)
can be created.
I'm closing this issue because it doesn't describe any issues related to
Apache's Cordova Android. But I hope the information I've provided helps.
