Qrcode-styled NPM

Installation

    npm i qrcode-styled

General Description

This library is based on node-qrcode with different options aiming to modify the QR codes's style.

Please see the docs of node-qrcode for QR code related options (like mask pattern, QR code version etc.). The options described here only reference styling paremeters.

Usage

`toDataURL(payload, [options], [cb(error, url)]`

toDataURL(): \<Promise> payload: \<string>. options: {}. See Styling. cb(): Callback function.

Styling

Modules

There are two styling dimensions for modules:

type: Modifies shape of modules
colordark and colorlight: Modify color of modules. colordark refers to the module color colorlight to the background.

    const opts = {
        moduleStyle: {
            type: 'square',
            colordark: '#0D406C', 
            colorlight: '#ffffff'
        },
    }

type: \<string>. Possible values: 'square', 'rounded'. Default: 'square'
colordark: \<string>. Possible values: Hexadecimal color codes. Default: '#000000' Module color
colorlight: \<string>. Possible values: Hexadecimal color codes. Default: '#ffffff' Background color

Note: If you don't choose white as background, or background and module color only differ slightly, please test the QR code for usability.

Position markers

    const opts = {
        moduleStyle: {},
        positionMarker: {
            squareType: 'none',
            squareColor: '#7826E1',
            innerType: 'square',
            innerColor: '#19DE7F'
          },
    }

squareType: \<string>. Possible values: 'none', 'square'. Default: 'none' Type of the outer position marker frame
innerType: \<string>. Possible values: 'none', 'square'. Default: 'none' Type of the inner area of the position marker
squareColor, innerColor: \<string>. Possible values: 'none', 'square'. Default: 'none'

Note: If moduleStyle.type = 'square' there will be no difference between positionMarker.squareType = 'none' and positionMarker.squareType = 'square'. The same holds for positionMarker.innerType option.

Add an image

    const opts = {
        moduleStyle: {},
        positionMarker: {},
        image: 'src/assets/image.svg',
    }

With the image key, provide a path starting with the directory on the nodes_modules level where you placed the image you want to insert into the QR code's center.
You have to provide the file format suffix. You can provide the file in the following formats: | Image format | | ------------ | | .svg |

Global options

See node-qrcode. All options are supported except the color option, because this parameter refers to styling. You can style color of modules and position markers separately (see Modules)

Examples

Node express example:

NestJS expample:

    import { toDataURL } from 'qrcode-styled';

    export class AppController {
  
        @Get()
        createQRCode(@Res() res: any): any {

            const payload = 'text_hidden_behind_fuzzy_colored_schema'
            const opts = {
                moduleStyle: {
                    type: 'square',
                    colordark: '#0D406C', 
                    colorlight: '#ffffff'
                },
                positionMarker: {
                    squareType: 'none',
                    squareColor: '#7826E1',
                    innerType: 'square',
                    innerColor: '#19DE7F'
                },
            }
            toDataURL(payload, opts).then((resp) => {

                res.send(`<html lang="en">
                                <head>

                                        }
                            
                                    </style>

                                            background-color: white;
                                            height: 40rem;
                                            width: 40rem;
                                            text-align: center;
                                            background-image: url('${resp}');
                                            background-repeat: no-repeat;
                                        }
                                    </style>
                                    <div class="qr-code"> </div>
                                </body>
                            </html>`)
            })
