Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- Barcodes requires PHP bcmath extension for Intelligent Mail barcodes

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install this package with the Composer CLI:

```
composer require tklovett/barcodes

```

Or manually add the dependency to your project's `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
    "tklovett/barcodes": "dev-master"
}

```

And tell composer to install it:

```
composer install

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

First instantiate a BarcodeGenerator factory:

```
$generator = new BarcodeGenerator();
```

Then tell it to generate the barcode type of your choice for your code:

```
$barcode = generator.generate(BarcodeType::QR_CODE, "This is what I want encoded");
```

Finally, output SVG, HTML, or a PNG:

```
$svg  = $barcode.toSVG();
$html = $barcode.toHTML();
$png  = $barcode.toPNG();
```

Need a custom height, width, or color for your barcode? No problem:

```
$width = 20;
$height = 30;
$color = 'blue';
$sizedSVG  = $barcode.toSVG($width, $height, $color);
$sizedHTML = $barcode.toSVG($width, $height, $color);
$sizedPNG  = $barcode.toSVG($width, $height, $color);
```

TODO:
-----

[](#todo)

- Convert snake\_case method names to camelCase
- Replace returns from barcode constructors with exception throws
- Write tests
- Write docs
- parent::\_\_construct($code); in all barcodes
- remove unused methods
