• Generate QRcode from a single PHP file. MIT license.
• Output to raw PNG or base64 encoded data

Install

composer require apirone/php-qr-code

Usage

require_once('../vendor/autoload.php';

use Apirone\Lib\PhpQrCode\QrCode;

// Quick static method with base64 encoded PNG

$data = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet';
$options = [
    's' => 'qrm',
    'fc' => '#000000',
    'bc' => '#FFFFFF',
    // ...
];

$base64_qr_encoded = QrCode::png($data, $options);
echo '<img src="' . $base64_qr_encoded . '"> ';

// Create and use qr instant
$qr = QRCode::init($data, $options); // $data & $options are optional

// Also you can use chain to set some options (not all)
$options['s'] = 'qrq';
$image_encoded = $qr->data($data)->options($options)->base64();

echo '<img src="' . $image_encoded . '"> ';

$image_raw = QRCode::init()
    ->data($data)
    ->levelHigh()
    ->density(0.5)
    ->raw();

echo '<img src="data:image/png;base64,' . base64_encode($image_raw) . '"> ';

Options

Use options array to initialize class:

$options = [
    's' => 'qrl',
    'fc' => '#000000',
    'bc' => '#FFFFFF',
    // ...
];

Available options keys

You can define option as [key => value, ...] or use the option name as a property $qr->s = 'qrl'

• s - QR error correction level. Available values:

  • qrl - Level L (Low) 7% of data bytes can be restored.
  • qrm - Level M (Medium) 15% of data bytes can be restored.
  • qrq - Level Q (Quartile) 25% of data bytes can be restored.
  • qrh - Level H (High) 30% of data bytes can be restored.

• w - Width of image. Overrides sf or sx.

• h - Height of image. Overrides sf or sy.

• sf - Scale factor. Default 4.

• sx - Horizontal scale factor. Overrides sf.

• sy - Vertical scale factor. Overrides sf.

• p - Padding. Default is 0.

• pv - Top and bottom padding. Default is value of `p``.

• ph - Left and right padding. Default is value of p.

• pt - Top padding. Default is value of pv.

• pl - Left padding. Default is value of ph.

• pr - Right padding. Default is value of ph.

• pb - Bottom padding. Default is value of pv.

• fc - Foreground color in #RRGGBB format.

• bc - Background color in #RRGGBB format.

• md - Module density. A number between 0 and 1. Default is 1.

• wq - Width of quiet area units. Default is 1. Use 0 to suppress quiet area.

• wm - Width of narrow modules and spaces. Default is 1.

Methods

Init methods. Static.

• png($data, $options = []) - Convenience method to quickly generate an base64 encoded PNG. Static.
• init($data = '', $options = []) - Init QR code instance. Static.

Set error correction levels

• levelLow() - Set s option to qrl.
• levelMid() - Set s option to qrm.
• levelQrt() - Set s option to qrq.
• levelHigh() - Set s option to qrh.
• levelAuto() - Unset s option.

Some parameters setup methods

Call methods without params to clear options value.

• data($data = '') - Set QR code data
• options($options = []) - Set QR code options
• size($size = null) - Generated image size. Sets both h and w options to the same value.
• scale($scale = null) - Set sf option value.
• padding($padding = null) - Set p option.
• color($color = null) - Set fc option.
• background($color = null) - Set bc option.
• quietZone($size = null) - Set wq option.
• density($density = null) - Set md option.

Generate QR methods

• render_image() - Return generated GD resource.
• raw() - Return raw PNG image data.
• base64() - Return bse64 encoded PNG image data.
