PHP Barcode Generator

This is an easy to use, non-bloated, framework independent, barcode generator in PHP., _(*1)

It creates SVG, PNG, JPG and HTML images, from the most used 1D barcode standards., _(*2)

The codebase is largely from the TCPDF barcode generator by Nicola Asuni. This code is therefor licensed under LGPLv3. It is still a bit of a mess, bit I will clean it in the future. I do not expect the interface of this class will change during the clean ups., _(*3)

Installation

Install through composer:, _(*4)

composer require picqer/php-barcode-generator

If you want to generate PNG or JPG images, you need the GD library or Imagick installed on your system as well., _(*5)

Usage

Initiate the barcode generator for the output you want, then call the ->getBarcode() routine as many times as you want., _(*6)

$generator = new Picqer\Barcode\BarcodeGeneratorHTML();
echo $generator->getBarcode('081231723897', $generator::TYPE_CODE_128);

The ->getBarcode() routine accepts the following: - $code Data for the barcode - $type Type of barcode, use the constants defined in the class - $widthFactor Width is based on the length of the data, with this factor you can make the barcode bars wider than default - $totalHeight The total height of the barcode - $color Hex code of the foreground color, _(*7)

Image types

$generatorSVG = new Picqer\Barcode\BarcodeGeneratorSVG();
$generatorPNG = new Picqer\Barcode\BarcodeGeneratorPNG();
$generatorJPG = new Picqer\Barcode\BarcodeGeneratorJPG();
$generatorHTML = new Picqer\Barcode\BarcodeGeneratorHTML();
