Overview

Creation

QRCode objects expect only one required constructor parameter and an optional hash of any other. Here’s a few examples:

qr = RQRCode::QRCode.new('hello world')
qr = RQRCode::QRCode.new('hello world', :size => 1, :level => :m, :mode => :alphanumeric )

Constructor Details

#initialize(string, *args) ⇒ QRCode

Expects a string to be parsed in, other args are optional

# string - the string you wish to encode
# size   - the size of the qrcode (default 4)
# level  - the error correction level, can be:
   * Level :l 7%  of code can be restored
   * Level :m 15% of code can be restored
   * Level :q 25% of code can be restored
   * Level :h 30% of code can be restored (default :h)
# mode   - the mode of the qrcode (defaults to alphanumeric or byte_8bit, depending on the input data):
   * :number
   * :alphanumeric
   * :byte_8bit
   * :kanji

qr = RQRCode::QRCode.new('hello world', :size => 1, :level => :m, :mode => :alphanumeric )

Instance Method Details

#error_correction_level ⇒ Object

Return a symbol for current error connection level

# File 'lib/rqrcode/qrcode/qr_code.rb', line 293

def error_correction_level
  QRERRORCORRECTLEVEL.invert[@error_correct_level]
end

#is_dark(row, col) ⇒ Object Also known as: dark?

is_dark is called with a col and row parameter. This will return true or false based on whether that coordinate exists in the matrix returned. It would normally be called while iterating through modules. A simple example would be:

instance.is_dark( 10, 10 ) => true

    raise QRCodeRunTimeError, "Invalid row/column pair: #{row}, #{col}"
  end
  @modules[row][col]
end

#mode ⇒ Object

Return a symbol in QRMODE.keys for current mode used

#to_s(*args) ⇒ Object

This is a public method that returns the QR Code you have generated as a string. It will not be able to be read in this format by a QR Code reader, but will give you an idea if the final outout. It takes two optional args :true and :false which are there for you to choose how the output looks. Here’s an example of it’s use:

instance.to_s =>
xxxxxxx x  x x   x x  xx  xxxxxxx
x     x  xxx  xxxxxx xxx  x     x
x xxx x  xxxxx x       xx x xxx x

instance._to_s( :dark => 'E', :light => 'Q') =>
EEEEEEEQEQQEQEQQQEQEQQEEQQEEEEEEE
EQQQQQEQQEEEQQEEEEEEQEEEQQEQQQQQE
EQEEEQEQQEEEEEQEQQQQQQQEEQEQEEEQE
