This is a simple QR code generator site and API. It is built with Flask and uses the qrcode library to generate QR codes.

Usage

Site

The site is hosted at http://127.0.0.1:5000/. You can use it to generate QR codes for URLs, text, and email addresses.

API

Generate QR code

You can generate a QR code by sending a POST request to /api/generate with the following JSON payload:

url: str
size: int
border: int
file_name: str
background: str
color: str

• url: The URL, text, or email address to encode in the QR code.

• size: The size of the QR code (in pixels).

• border: The width of the border around the QR code (in pixels).

• file_name: The name of the file to save the QR code as.

• background: The background color of the QR code (in hexadecimal).

• color: The color of the QR code (in hexadecimal).

The API will return a JSON response with the URL of the generated QR code.

import requests

url = 'http://123.com'
size = 200
border = 10
file_name = 'qr_code.png'
background = 'ffffff'
color = '000000'

payload = {
    'url': url,
    'size': size,
    'border': border,
    'file_name': file_name,
    'background': background,
