qr code generator and reader: what is your preference

Post#1 by **francois** » 22 Jun 2023, 02:34

Lately I wanted to use a qr code reader on my porteus installation. After a lenghty reasearch I found a working one which is available thru getmod: zbar. What is yours?

Hi,
I built qtqr 2 years ago, from the Mageia 8 rpm , to encode and decode QR code.
qtqr is a GUI for qrencode.

Can you offer an XZM module?
Thanks

Unfortunately this is not possible, I do not build modules of single programs and their dependencies.
I summarize several programs in larger modules (100MB).

zbar module production:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# getmod -m zbar

Uses:
1) To get the signification of any qr code on your screen:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# import -silent -window root bmp:- | zbarimg -

2) If the qr code is a file:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# zbarimg qrcode-file.png
