Further analysis of the maintenance status of qrcodegen based on released PyPI versions cadence, the repository activity, and other data points determined that its maintenance is Inactive.

An important project maintenance signal to consider for qrcodegen is that it hasn't seen any new versions released to PyPI in the past 12 months, and could be considered as a discontinued project, or that which receives low attention from its maintainers.

In the past month we didn't find any pull request activity or change in issues status has been detected for the GitHub repository.

QR Code generator library

Introduction

This project aims to be the best, clearest QR Code generator library. The primary goals are flexible options and absolute correctness. Secondary goals are compact implementation size and good documentation comments.

Home page with live JavaScript demo, extensive descriptions, and competitor comparisons:

Features

Core features:

Significantly shorter code but more documentation comments compared to competing libraries
Supports encoding all 40 versions (sizes) and all 4 error correction levels, as per the QR Code Model 2 standard
Output format: Raw modules/pixels of the QR symbol
Detects finder-like penalty patterns more accurately than other implementations
Encodes numeric and special-alphanumeric text in less space than general text
Open-source code under the permissive MIT License

Manual parameters:

User can specify minimum and maximum version numbers allowed, then library will automatically choose smallest version in the range that fits the data
User can specify mask pattern manually, otherwise library will automatically evaluate all 8 masks and select the optimal one
User can specify absolute error correction level, or allow the library to boost it if it doesn't increase the version number
User can create a list of data segments manually and add ECI segments

More information about QR Code technology and this library's design can be found on the project home page.

Examples

from qrcodegen import *

# Simple operation
qr0 = QrCode.encode_text("Hello, world!", QrCode.Ecc.MEDIUM)
svg = to_svg_str(qr0, 4)  # See qrcodegen-demo

# Manual operation
segs = QrSegment.make_segments("3141592653589793238462643383")
qr1 = QrCode.encode_segments(segs, QrCode.Ecc.HIGH, 5, 5, 2, False)
for y in range(qr1.get_size()):
    for x in range(qr1.get_size()):
        (... paint qr1.get_module(x, y) ...)
