Bind "play-services-mlkit-document-scanner"
Description
Last updated graduated Document Scanner out of Beta to General Availability, so it would be useful to have bindings for this artifact. Thank you.
@afriscic can you give some details on what you'd use this for? Links to Android docs or an example of a feature in an app?
Everyone please upvote if you need this.
As always, contributions are also welcome, thanks!
Link to Android docs: https://developers.google.com/ml-kit/vision/doc-scanner
Used for scanning documents such as invoices, delivery notes and so on. Uses the camera to crop the image of the document to its size and to correct the orientation automatically.
This would enable automatic document scanning using Google's API without any additional image processing code. It would bring dotNET Android implementation to a feature parity with dotNET iOS that has similar feature implemented and would enable development of MAUI document scanning libraries or apps for both platforms.

Do you have a link to this? or is it just an API that is bound in Microsoft.iOS.dll?

Is there anything preventing you from binding these APIs yourself? or use the slim bindings feature?

Not really... But it would be easier for more devs to have official NuGet though...
I am a bit confused.
I'm sure bindings are done:
https://github.com/dotnet/android-libraries/blob/main/config.json#L2921-L2929
I remember I did it few weeks ago, but then it was merged into another branch and then into main:

Tho the package[s] was[were] not published:
https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Xamarin.GooglePlayServices.MLKit.DocumentScanner
Why? Dunno.
Signing is blocking a package, attempting a build again this week:
