Replace google qr-code in settings #11

Closed joakimbengtson closed 10 years ago

joakimbengtson commented 10 years ago

Google QR Code Generator is Deprecated, so we need to replace the qr code generated by settings.js with our own code.

Use some available lib?

https://github.com/davidshimjs/qrcodejs

The user should be able to download the image of the qr-code, preferably in vectorized format (eps, svg). Then it can be printed on promotional material and in print.

(It would be great if it could create qr codes like this: http://www.visualead.com/ So the user can make something that fits his graphical profile.)

It should be noted that the readability/detection rate of "graphicized" QR-codes decreases. I think we should go for just foreground, background color as settings.

Yes, it probably will. The first step is just to replace the Google generator. After that, we can play around a bit. ;)

This issue is quite "isolated" and may be a good starting point for anyone who wants to dig in. You don´t really need to know much about the structure of the client code to do this. I will help out as much as you want/need.

Nice, just had a quick look right now, but I will check it out in the morning!

To just let the user set a foreground color is a big step, compared to what you often see today (boring b/w qr-codes). Then the user can set the qr code to his "company color".
