QR Code Generator

Class: QRCodeGeneratorBlockV1

Source: inference.core.workflows.core_steps.transformations.qr_code_generator.v1.QRCodeGeneratorBlockV1

Generate a QR code image from a string input (typically a URL).

This block creates a QR code PNG image from the provided text input. It supports various customization options including size control, error correction levels, and visual styling. The generated QR code can be used in workflows where you need to create QR codes for URLs, text content, or other data that needs to be encoded.

The output is a PNG image that can be passed to other workflow blocks such as visualizers or image processing blocks.

Type identifier

Use the following identifier in step "type" field: roboflow_core/qr_code_generator@v1to add the block as as step in your workflow.

Properties

Name	Type	Description	Refs
name	str	Enter a unique identifier for this step..	❌
text	str	Text or URL to encode in the QR code.	✅
error_correct	str	Increased error correction comes at the expense of data capacity (text length). Use higher error correction if the QR code is likely to be transformed or obscured, but use a lower error correction level if the URL is long and the QR code is clearly visible..	❌
border	int	Border thickness in modules (default: 4).	✅
fill_color	str	QR code block color. Supports hex (#FF0000), rgb(255, 0, 0), standard names (BLACK, WHITE, RED, etc.), or CSS3 color names..	✅
back_color	str	QR code background color. Supports hex (#FFFFFF), rgb(255, 255, 255), standard names (BLACK, WHITE, RED, etc.), or CSS3 color names..	✅

The Refs column marks possibility to parametrise the property with dynamic values available in workflow runtime. See Bindings for more info.
