QRCode

touchgfx/widgets/QRCode.hpp

Widget capable of generating and showing a QRCode. This widget uses the QR Code generator library (C). https://www.nayuki.io/page/qr-code-generator-library

Important: The application must allocate buffers and provide these through QRCode::setBuffers.

The QRCode supports framebuffer formats RGB565, RGB888, ARGB8888.

Public Functions Documentation

convertBinaryDataToQRCode

Convert data to QRCode data and save in the buffer.

The function returns false if the encoding of the data does not fit in the QRCode. This depends on the version of the QRCode and the ECCLevel. If the data was not accepted, the QRCode Widget does not draw anything. User must call invalidate() after changing the data. This function can e.g. be used to store UTF8 encoded strings.

Parameters:


data	The data to show in the QRCode.
length	Length of the data.

Returns:

True if data was converted.

convertStringToQRCode

Convert a text to QRCode data and save in the buffer.

The function returns false if the encoding of the string does not fit in the QRCode. This depends on the version of the QRCode and the ECCLevel. If the text was not accepted, the QRCode Widget does not draw anything. User must call invalidate() after changing the data.

Parameters:


text	The text to show in the QRCode.

Returns:

True if data was converted.

draw

Draw this drawable.

It is a requirement that the draw implementation does not draw outside the region specified by invalidatedArea.

Parameters:


invalidatedArea	The sub-region of this drawable that needs to be redrawn, expressed in coordinates relative to its parent (e.g. for a complete redraw, invalidatedArea will be (0, 0, width, height).

Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::draw

getAlpha


uint8_t getAlpha	(			)	const

Gets the current alpha value of the widget.

The alpha value is in range 255 (solid) to 0 (invisible).

Returns:

The current alpha value.

See also:

setAlpha

getErrorCorrectionLevel


ECCLevel getErrorCorrectionLevel	(			)	const

Gets the current error correction level.

Returns:

The current error correction level.

See also:

setErrorCorrectionLevel

getQRCodeVersion


uint8_t getQRCodeVersion	(			)	const

Gets the current QRCode version.

Returns:

The current version.

See also:

setQRCodeVersion

getScale


int getScale	(			)	const

Gets the current scale of the QRCode.

Returns:

The current scale.

See also:

setScale

getSolidRect


virtual Rect getSolidRect	(			)	const

Get (the largest possible) rectangle that is guaranteed to be solid (opaque).

This information is important, as any Drawable underneath the solid area does not need to be drawn.

Returns:

The solid rectangle part of the Drawable.

Note

The rectangle returned must be relative to upper left corner of the Drawable, meaning that a completely solid widget should return the full size Rect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight()). If no area can be guaranteed to be solid, an empty Rect must be returned. Failing to return the correct rectangle may result in errors on the display.

Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::getSolidRect

QRCode


QRCode	(			)

Construct a new QRCode using black and white colors with alpha 255.

The user must supply buffers and set the scale and QR version as wanted.

setAlpha

Sets the opacity (alpha value).

This can be used to fade it away by gradually decreasing the alpha value from 255 (solid) to 0 (invisible).

Parameters:


newAlpha	The new alpha value. 255=solid, 0=invisible.

Note

The user code must call invalidate() in order to update the display.

setBuffers

Sets the buffers used for QRCode generation.

The length of the buffers must match the version of the QRCode used. Use the above macro QRCODE_BUFFER_SIZE(version) when allocating buffers. The qrBuffer is holding the QRCode bit-stream. The tempBuffer is only used during QRCode generation. It can be used for other purposes afterwards and shared between Widgets.

Parameters:


qrBuffer	Buffer to store the QRcode.
tempBuffer	Scratch buffer used during QRCode generation.

setColors

Sets the colors used for the QRCode.

Black and White is traditionally used, but other colors will also work.

Parameters:


colorBlack	The color used for 'black' pixels.
colorWhite	The color used the 'white' pixels.

setErrorCorrectionLevel

Sets the desired level of error correction codes.

Parameters:


level	The level of ECC.

setQRCodeVersion

Sets the version (size) of the QRCode.

Version is between 1 to 40.

Parameters:


version	The QRCode version to use.

setScale

Sets the scale of the QRCode.

Each bit will be shown as scale pixels.

Parameters:


newScale	The scale to use.
