codeReader: QRCodeReader access modifier should be public about qrcodereader.swift

Ok I'll llook at the best way to customize the overlay view in the next few day. Or if you have time, you're welcome. :)

Ive figured out how to use a custom overlay while hiding the default one

firstly, the codeReader needs to be made public

then

    self.addChildViewController(self.reader)
    self.view.addSubview(self.reader.view)
    self.reader.view.hidden = true

    // use SnapKit to add constraints to subview
    self.reader.view.snp_makeConstraints { (make) -> Void in
        make.edges.equalTo(self.view).inset(UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 0))
    }

    self.reader.codeReader.previewLayer.removeFromSuperlayer()
    self.view.layer.insertSublayer(self.reader.codeReader.previewLayer, atIndex: 0)

Note, Im not showing this modally. The code is in a custom View Controller

If you are not using it modally I think the best solution is to create your own view. Here this is almost the same thing.

You can create the QRCodeReader object and insert the previewLayer directly.

With the last version the qrcodeReader property is now public. 👍
