docker-qr-generator

Hey hey!

Ever want a Docker container that builds QR codes and then goes away? Well then, here you go. :)

Initial Features

• Pull a the image down from Docker Hub

• Run the following command to spin up a container to automagically create a QR code for you:

  docker run -v /<WHERE YOU WANT TO SAVE YOUR QR FILES/qr:/qr -e QR_TEXT='I LOVE DOCKER!' -e QR_FILE=QRFileName.png --rm valien/docker-qrcode-generator

• It should process and save the QR code in your mounted volume, exit, and delete the container.

• Another option is you can make the container interactive:

  'docker run -it --entrypoint=/bin/sh -v /<WHERE YOU WANT TO SAVE YOUR QR FILES/qr:/qr -e QR_TEXT='I LOVE DOCKER!' -e QR_FILE=QRFileName.png --rm valien/docker-qrcode-generator

  The manually run the QR program:

  qr "YOUR URL OR TEXT" > <filename>.png

• Full source available on Git Hub

• Uses Alpine as base image and Python qrcode 5.3 for QR generation.
