In this post we will see Laravel 8 qr code generate example. we will generate QR Code using simple-qrcode package. so we will learn how to create QR Code in laravel 8 using simple package.
Here, we are using simple-qrcode package, This package is very simple to use and generate QR Code in laravel 8,you can also learn from official side of Simple QrCode.
so, let's start to implement laravel 8 QR Code generate example.
In the first step we will install simple-qrcode package using cli. if you don't have install laravel then first install or setup laravel project. so below command and past in your terninal
composer require simplesoftwareio/simple-qrcodein app.php file add service provider and aliase.
config/app.php
'providers' => [
SimpleSoftwareIO\QrCode\QrCodeServiceProvider::class
],
'aliases' => [
'QrCode' => SimpleSoftwareIO\QrCode\Facades\QrCode::class
],In this we will create QRController in App\Http\Controllers path. and code for generate QR Code
php artisan:make controller QRController<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use SimpleSoftwareIO\QrCode\Facades\QrCode;
class QRController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('qrcode.index');
}
public function create()
{
QrCode::generate('https://websolutionstuff.com', '../public/QRCode.svg');
return redirect()->route('qrcode.index');
}
}
Three formats are currently supported; png, eps, and svg. To change the format use the following code:
Note : imagick is required in order to generate a png image.
QrCode::format('png'); //Will return a png image
QrCode::format('eps'); //Will return a eps image
QrCode::format('svg'); //Will return a svg image You can change the size of a QR Code by using the size method. Simply specify the size desired in pixels using the following syntax:
QrCode::size(100);Now step 4 in add routes for generate QR Code in laravel 8
use App\Http\Controllers\QRController;
Route::get('qr_code/index', [QRController::class, 'index'])->name('qrcode.index');
Route::get('qr_code/create', [QRController::class, 'create'])->name('qrcode.create');In this step create balde file in resource/views/qrcode/index.blade.php path.
