Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

(QR-encode-string string [version] [level] [encoding] [case-sensitive?])procedure
(MQR-encode-string string [version] [level] [encoding] [case-sensitive?])procedure

Encodes the given string into a QR code. Returns two values: a u8vector containing the pixel values of the QR code (255 for white and 0 for black) and the number of pixels per row/column of the code. version is the desired QR version (between 0 and 40 or 0 and 4 for Micro QR, with 0 being automatic, defaults to 0). level is the level of error correction (between 0 and 3, defaults to 2). encoding is the encoding type and should be one of #:numeric, #:alpha-numeric, #:8-bit, #:kanji, #:eci, #:fnc-first, or #:fnc-second (defaults to #:8-bit). case-sensitive? is a boolean, defaulting to #t.

The string must be short enough to be encoded using the given version, level, encoding, and case-sensitive?. Otherwise an error will be thrown.

MQR-encode-string is the Micro QR version of QR-encode-string.

(MQR-encode-string-8bit string [version] [level])procedure
(QR-encode-string-8bit string [version] [level])procedure

Encodes the given string into a QR code in 8 bit mode. Returns two values: a u8vector containing the pixel values of the QR code (255 for white and 0 for black) and the number of pixels per row/column of the code. version is the desired QR version (between 0 and 40 or 0 and 4 for Micro QR, with 0 being automatic, defaults to 0). level is the level of error correction (between 0 and 3, defaults to 2).

The string must be short enough to be encoded using the given version and level. Otherwise an error will be thrown.

MQR-encode-string-8bit is the Micro QR version of QR-encode-string-8bit.

(QR-encode-data u8vector [version] [level])procedure
(MQR-encode-data u8vector [version] [level])procedure

Encodes the given u8vector into a QR code. Returns two values: a u8vector containing the pixel values of the QR code (255 for white and 0 for black) and the number of pixels per row/column of the code. version is the desired QR version (between 0 and 40 or 0 and 4 for Micro QR, with 0 being automatic, defaults to 0). level is the level of error correction (between 0 and 3, defaults to 2).

The data must be short enough to be encoded using the given version and level. Otherwise an error will be thrown.

MQR-encode-data is the Micro QR version of QR-encode-data.

Examples

    
(QR-encode-string "hello world!")

You can also try running ./examples/encode-ascii.scm "STRING TO ENCODE" to create an ASCII QR code, like so:
