I can confirm this is a bug. It occurs when the input string is longer dan 134 characters with the default error correction level.
character_set <- c(letters, LETTERS, rep(" ", 20), 0:9)
random_character <- sample(character_set, 134, replace = TRUE)
input_string <- paste(random_character, collapse = "")
random_character <- sample(character_set, 135, replace = TRUE)
input_string2 <- paste(random_character, collapse = "")
qrcode_gen(input_string)
qrcode_gen(input_string2)
It occurs with shorter strings when the error correction level increases.
qrcode_gen(input_string, ErrorCorrectionLevel = "M")
random_character <- sample(character_set, 107, replace = TRUE)
input_string3 <- paste(random_character, collapse = "")
qrcode_gen(input_string3, ErrorCorrectionLevel = "M")
I didn't wrote the main functions of the package. So it will take me some time to fix this.
This should be fixed. Can you please try the new version?
remotes::install_github("thierryo/qrcode@bugfix")
library(qrcode)
inputString <- paste0(
rep("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890", 63), collapse = ""
)
plot(qr_code(inputString))
I had a hard time getting my QR code reader to recognise an image that complex, but at least a string 350 characters in length can now be properly encoded and recognised! Thanks!
Hello,
The example code on the main page creates an invalid/unreadable QR code from the long string.
