So, Here I will show you QRcode example In laravel in my project to give you demo, there are many packeges availalbe in laravel to generate qrcode. here, in this example I will use Endroid QR Code Generator package.
Let's start with code and see how to implement qrcode in laravel.
Step 1 : Install Application for QRcode Example In Laravel
Type the following command in terminal for create new project in your system.
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel qrcode_demo
Step 2 : Install Endroid QRcode Package In Your Application
Now, we need to install Endroid QRcode Package for dynamic qrcode generator
composer require endroid/qr-code
Step 3 : Create Controller
Now create controller on this path app\Http\Controllers\QRController.php and add below command.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Endroid\QrCode\QrCode;
use Endroid\QrCode\ErrorCorrectionLevel;
use Endroid\QrCode\LabelAlignment;
class QRController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('qrcode.index');
}
public function create()
{
$qrCode = new QrCode('techsolutionstuff.com');
$qrCode->setSize(300);
$qrCode->setMargin(10);
$qrCode->setEncoding('UTF-8');
$qrCode->setWriterByName('png');
$qrCode->setErrorCorrectionLevel(ErrorCorrectionLevel::HIGH());
$qrCode->setForegroundColor(['r' => 0, 'g' => 0, 'b' => 0, 'a' => 0]);
$qrCode->setBackgroundColor(['r' => 255, 'g' => 255, 'b' => 255, 'a' => 0]);
$qrCode->setLogoSize(150, 200);
$qrCode->setValidateResult(false);
$qrCode->setRoundBlockSize(true);
$qrCode->setWriterOptions(['exclude_xml_declaration' => true]);
header('Content-Type: '.$qrCode->getContentType());
$qrCode->writeFile(public_path('/qrcode.png'));
return redirect()->route('qrcode.index');
}
}
Step 4 : Add Route
We need to add route for generating QR code and view file.
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
Route::get('qr_code/index','QRController@index')->name('qrcode.index');
Route::get('qr_code/create','QRController@create')->name('qrcode.create');
Step 5 : Create Blade File
And after that we need to create blade file for view / generate and download QRcode. So, add below code in your index.blade.php file
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<title>How To Generate QRcode In Laravel- techsolutionstuff</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
</head>
<body>
<form class="text-center" action="{{route('qrcode.create')}}" method="get" accept-charset="utf-8">
<div class="row mt-5">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h2>Click on button to generate Qrcode - techsolutionstuff</h2>
<button class="btn btn-success" type="submit">Generate</button>
<a href="{{asset('qrcode.png')}}" class="btn btn-primary" download>Download</a><br>
<img class="img-thumbnail" src="{{asset('qrcode.png')}}" width="150" height="150" style="margin-top: 20px">
</div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
You can customize this QRcode as per your requirments like changes in background and foreground color, QRcode size, QRcode margin etc...
