QR Code Generator Bundle for Laravel

QR Code Generator Bundle for Laravel

This bundle will allow you to easily generate QR code images. The draw function echos out an html image tag; however, this bundle can easily be manipulated to fit your app needs.

Installation

To install the bundle, run the following command

php artisan bundle:install qr

Next, we will tell the application to auto load the bundle. In your application/bundles.php file add the following line to the array

'qr' => array('auto' => true),

Or, if we set 'auto' to false, we could manually start the bundle wherever we needed to use it by adding the following line:

Bundle::start('qr');

Example usage

If we were to add the following route to our application:

Route::get('generate', function(){

	$qr = new QR();
	$qr->url("www.laravel.com");
	$qr->draw();

});

Now, by going to our APP_NAME/bundle/ URL you will see a new QR Code generated on the screen. Simply use a QR code scanner and you will see that the QR code redirects to our specified URL

OPTIONS

You can use all the following options to generate a QR code that fits your needs:

// bookmark 
$qr->boomark("title", "url"); 

// contact 
$qr->contact("name", "address", "phone", "email"); 

// content 
$qr->content("type", "size", "content"); 

// email 
$qr->email("email", "subject", "message"); 

// geo location 
$qr->geo("lat", "lon", "height"); 

// phone 
$qr->phone("phone"); 

// sms 
$qr->sms("phone", "text"); 

// text 
$qr->text("text"); 

// URL 
$qr->url("url"); 

// wifi connection 
$qr->wifi("type", "ssid", "password");

qr's Issues

Installation?

Readme says:

php artisan bundle:install qr

But I get

[InvalidArgumentException]
There are no commands defined in the "bundle" namespace.

Looks like this is because of laravel 4:

$ php artisan --version
Laravel Framework version 4.1.21

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15868804/laravel-4-artisan-error-when-trying-to-install-a-bundle

May this could be updated an a composer file included?
