NPM Version Build Status Test Coverage

node-qrcodeine

QR Code generator for Node.js using libqrencode and libpng. This module is a fork from qrc to bring support for Node.js versions beyond 0.10.x and full control over the QR generation.

var qrBuffer = qr.encode('Some text to put in a QR Code');
// or:
var qrPngBuffer = qr.encodePng('Some text to put in a QR Code PNG');

var qrPngBuffer = qr.encodePng('FOO123', {
  version: 4,
  ecLevel: qr.EC_H,
