@qrcode-js/node v1.2.0

@qrcode-js/node

Description

This is a wrapper around the core package, enabling creation of QRs on the server side, on Node environments.

Behind the scenes it uses the canvas package to use the canvas like the built-in in browsers.

Example

import QRCodeNode from "@qrcode-js/node";
import fs from "node:fs/promises";

async function main() {
  const myQR = QRCodeNode();
  myQR.setOptions({
    text: "https://github.com/qrcode-js/qrcode",
    color: "#123456",
    size: 1000,
    logo: { round: 0.4, margin: 0 },
    dots: {
      scale: 0.75,
      round: 1,
    },
    finder: {
      round: 0.5,
    },
    gradient: (ctx, size) => {
      const gradient = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, 0, size, 0);
      gradient.addColorStop(0, "green");
      gradient.addColorStop(0.5, "grey");
      gradient.addColorStop(1, "red");
      return gradient;
    },
    drawFunction: "telegram",
    // drawFunction: (
    //   canvasContext,
    //   left,
    //   top,
    //   nSize,
    //   scale,
    //   round,
    //   parameters,
    //   otherCells
    // ) => {
    //   if (parameters.isTiming) {
    //     AwesomeQR._drawDot(canvasContext, left, top, nSize, scale, round);
    //   }
    // },
  });

  await fs.mkdir("dist", { recursive: true });
  await myQR.draw().then((d) => fs.writeFile("dist/qrcode.png", d));
}
main().catch(console.error);

CLI

This package ships with a CLI, a Command Line Interface.

Usage: npx qrcode [OPTIONS] path/to/output-file

Options are two, --help and --opt.

--help will show a help message and exit.

--opt is used to set individual options for the QR. Numbers are automatically parsed. To set a nested parameter use the "dot" syntax by Lodash. See example below to better understand.

Example

npx qrcode --opt.text="This is a text" --opt.size=1000 --opt.dots.round=0.5 ./qrcode.png
