angularx-qrcode

angularx-qrcode is a fast and easy-to-use Ionic 3 and Angular4-9 QR Code component/module library to generate QR Codes (Quick Response) in your Ionic and Angular 4/5/6/7/8/9 app with support for AOT. It is a drop-in replacement for the no-longer-maintained angular2 component ng2-qrcode and based on node-qrcode.

Demo App

An Angular app with a working implementation of angularx-qrcode is available on github.com/Cordobo/angularx-qrcode-sample-app.

Install angularx-qrcode 2.x with Angular 6/7/8/9

# Angular 6/7/8/9 and Ionic
npm install angularx-qrcode --save
# Or use yarn
yarn add angularx-qrcode

Older Angular Versions

# Angular 5
npm install angularx-qrcode@1.6.4 --save
# Angular 4
npm install angularx-qrcode@1.0.3 --save

New in angularx-qrcode 2.x

angularx-qrcode is now based on node-qrcode and as a result ships a couple of new features (keeping all the known features)

• Add your CSS class with cssClass
• New elementType field: url, img and canvas
• New margin field. Define how much wide the quiet zone should be.
• New scale, scale factor. A value of 1 means 1px per modules (black dots).
• New version field. QR Code version. If not specified the more suitable value will be calculated.

Upgrade from 1.x to 2.x

Upgrading should be simple. If any field you use, angularx-qrcode logs warnings to your browser console, telling you which fields should be renamed.

Old code in 1.x

<qrcode [qrdata]="'Your data'" [size]="256" [level]="'M'"></qrcode>

New code in 2.x

<qrcode [qrdata]="'Your data'" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>

Basic Usage

Import the module and add it to your imports section in your main AppModule:

// File: app.module.ts
// all your imports
import { QRCodeModule } from 'angularx-qrcode';

@NgModule({
declarations: [
  AppComponent
],
imports: [
  QRCodeModule
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Examples: How to implement angularx-qrcode

Generate a QR Code from a string (directive only)

Now that Angular/Ionic knows about the new QR Code module, let's invoke it from our template with a directive. If we use a simple text-string, we need no additional code in our controller.

<qrcode [qrdata]="'Your data string'" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>

Create a QR Code from a variable in your controller

In addition to our <qrcode>-directive in example.html, lets add two lines of code to our controller example.ts.

// File: example.ts
export class QRCodeComponent {
  public myAngularxQrCode: string = null;
  constructor () {
    // assign a value
    this.myAngularxQrCode = 'Your QR code data string';
  }
}

// File: example.html
<qrcode [qrdata]="myAngularxQrCode" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>

Parameters

Note

Depending on the amount of data of the qrdata to encode, a minimum width is required.

AOT - Ahead Of Time Compilation

angularx-qrcode supports AOT Compilation (Ahead-of-Time Compilation) which results in significant faster rendering. An AOT-enabled module is included. Further reading: https://angular.io/guide/aot-compiler

SSR - Server Side Rendering

As of version 1.6.0, SSR support is fully implemented, the following workaround is no longer needed. HowTo use Angular QRCode with SSR
