$ pod install

Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.

You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:

$ brew update
$ brew install carthage

To integrate EFQRCode into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile:

github "EyreFree/EFQRCode" ~> 1.2.5

Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built EFQRCode.framework into your Xcode project.

The Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift compiler.

Once you have your Swift package set up, adding EFQRCode as a dependency is as easy as adding it to the dependencies value of your Package.swift.

dependencies: [
    .Package(url: "https://github.com/EyreFree/EFQRCode.git", Version(1, 2, 5))
]

Import EFQRCode module where you want to use it:

import EFQRCode

Get QR Codes from CGImage, maybe there are several codes in a image, so it will return an array:

if let testImage = UIImage(named: "test.png")?.toCGImage() {
    if let tryCodes = EFQRCode.recognize(image: testImage) {
        if tryCodes.count > 0 {
            print("There are \(tryCodes.count) codes in testImage.")
            for (index, code) in tryCodes.enumerated() {
                print("The content of \(index) QR Code is: \(code).")
            }
        } else {
            print("There is no QR Codes in testImage.")
        }
    } else {
        print("Recognize failed, check your input image!")
    }
}

Create QR Code image, quick usage:

//                    content: Content of QR Code
//            size (Optional): Width and height of image
// backgroundColor (Optional): Background color of QRCode
// foregroundColor (Optional): Foreground color of QRCode
//       watermark (Optional): Background image of QRCode

if let tryImage = EFQRCode.generate(
    content: "https://github.com/EyreFree/EFQRCode",
    watermark: UIImage(named: "WWF")?.toCGImage()
) {
    print("Create QRCode image success: \(tryImage)")
} else {
    print("Create QRCode image failed!")
}

• Support GIF
• Support more styles

1. Please select a high contrast foreground and background color combinations;
2. You should use magnification instead of size if you want to improve the definition of QRCode image, you can also increase the value of them;
3. Magnification too high／Size too long／Content too much may cause failure;
4. It is recommended to test the QRCode image before put it into use;
5. You can contact me if there is any problem, both Issue and Pull request are welcome.
