        text_instructions: "OPTIONAL Instruction Text - default = 'Please point your camera at the QR code.'", // Android only
        camera: "front" || "back" // defaults to "back"
        flash: "on" || "off" || "auto" // defaults to "auto". See Quirks
        drawSight: true || false //defaults to true, create a red sight/line in the center of the scanner view.
    }
    ```

- **onSuccess**: function (s) {...} _Callback for successful scan._
- **onFailure**: function (s) {...} _Callback for cancelled scan or error._

- error('cancelled') _If user cancelled the scan (with back button etc)_
- error('misc error message') _Misc failure_

Quirks:

- __Android__: Flash "on" may cause the flash to alternate between on and off
  at about a half second/one second interval, instead of making it stay on...
