# rn-qr-generator

https://www.npmjs.com/package/rn-qr-generator

## Getting started

`$ npm install rn-qr-generator --save`

## Mostly automatic installation

`$ react-native link rn-qr-generator`

---

#### Important:
Linking is not needed anymore. ``[email protected]+`` supports dependencies auto linking.
For iOS you also need additional step to install auto linked Pods (Cocoapods should be installed):
```
cd ios && pod install && cd ../
```
___

## Manual installation

#### iOS

1. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click `Libraries` ➜ `Add Files to [your project's name]`
2. Go to `node_modules` ➜ `rn-qr-generator` and add `RNQrGenerator.xcodeproj`
3. In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project. Add `libRNQrGenerator.a` to your project's `Build Phases` ➜ `Link Binary With Libraries`
4. Run your project (`Cmd+R`)<

#### Android

1. Open up `android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainActivity.java`
- Add `import com.gevorg.reactlibrary.RNQrGeneratorPackage;` to the imports at the top of the file
- Add `new RNQrGeneratorPackage()` to the list returned by the `getPackages()` method
2. Append the following lines to `android/settings.gradle`:
```diff
rootProject.name = 'MyApp'
include ':app'

+ include ':rn-qr-generator'
+ project(':rn-qr-generator').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/rn-qr-generator/android')
```
3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in `android/app/build.gradle`:
```diff
dependencies {
+ compile project(':rn-qr-generator')
}
```

## Usage
```javascript
import RNQRGenerator from 'rn-qr-generator';

RNQRGenerator.generate({
value: 'https://github.com/gevgasparyan/rn-qr-generator',
height: 100,
width: 100,
})
.then(response => {
const { uri, width, height, base64 } = response;
this.setState({ imageUri: uri });
})
.catch(error => console.log('Cannot create QR code', error));

// Detect QR code in image
RNQRGenerator.detect({
uri: PATH_TO_IMAGE
})
.then(response => {
const { values } = response; // Array of detected QR code values. Empty if nothing found.
})
.catch(error => console.log('Cannot detect QR code in image', error));
```

#### detect

input properties

| Property | Type | Description |
| :------------- | :------: | :----------- |
| **`uri`** | string | Local path of the image. Can be skipped if base64 is passed.
| **`base64`** | string | Base64 representation of the image to be scanned. If uri is passed this option will be skipped.

payload

| Property | Type | Description |
| :------------- | :------: | :----------- |
| values | string[] | Array of detected QR code values. Empty if nothing found.

Example of 2FA QR code with Time Based (TOTP) or Counter Based (HOTP)

```
RNQRGenerator.generate({
...
value: 'otpauth://totp/Example:[email protected]?secret=HKSWY3RNEHPK3PXP&issuer=Issuer',
})
```

More information about totp can be found [here](https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format).

This module uses `Zxing` library for encoding and decoding codes ( [ios](https://github.com/zxingify/zxingify-objc), [Android](https://github.com/journeyapps/zxing-android-embedded)).
# Note
Some simulators may not generate qr code properly. Use real device if you get an error.
