AtelierBarcode

Generate scan-ready barcodes as crisp SVG.

Generate QR codes, Code 128, and EAN-13 as crisp SVG in pure PHP. The encoder returns the markup directly - no canvas, browser, or runtime dependency.

A QR symbol generated directly as SVG, including its quiet zone.

Fifteen symbologies
QR, Data Matrix, GS1 DataMatrix, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, ISBN, Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, GS1-128, ITF-14, Interleaved 2 of 5 and Codabar.
QR to the standard
Versions 1 to 40, numeric, alphanumeric or byte mode chosen from the payload, four error-correction levels, and all eight masks scored before one is picked.
Check digits and guards
EAN, UPC and ISBN validate or compute the check digit. Code 39 takes a Mod 43 checksum, ITF-14 draws bearer bars, and Codabar takes explicit A to D guards.
SVG, PNG or GIF
One symbol, three outputs, from the same computed geometry. GIF is assembled byte by byte in PHP; PNG is the one call that needs ext-gd.
The grid, not only the markup
A matrix code returns its grid as rows of booleans from matrix(), a linear one its bar widths from modules(), for composing into a document or rendering elsewhere.
Quiet zone, colour, size
Every builder shares margin(), foreground() and background(). Matrix codes take size(); linear ones take scale() and height().

Create a QR Code

use Atelier\Barcode\Ecc;
use Atelier\Barcode\QrCode;

$svg = QrCode::create('https://ateliersvg.com')
    ->ecc(Ecc::Medium)
    ->size(240)
    ->margin(4)
    ->render();

Every builder returns SVG markup ready for an <img>, inline SVG, PDF, or email.

Make a product barcode

use Atelier\Barcode\Ean13;

$svg = Ean13::create('590123412345') // computes the check digit
    ->scale(2)
    ->height(80)
    ->render();

Configuration

QR codes offer Ecc::Low, Ecc::Medium, Ecc::Quartile, and Ecc::High. All builders expose a quiet-zone margin and foreground and background colours; linear codes add module scale and bar height. matrix() returns the module grid as booleans instead of SVG, which is what the PNG and GIF renderers take.

Documentation

Start

Installation: install the package and verify the runtime.
Getting started: render a first symbol and catch a failure.

Symbologies

Every symbology: compare the fifteen and pick one.
Matrix codes: QR Code, Data Matrix, GS1 DataMatrix.
Retail and publishing: EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, ISBN.
Logistics and general purpose: Code 128, GS1-128, ITF-14, Interleaved 2 of 5, Code 39, Code 93, Codabar.

Output

Renderers: emit SVG, GIF, or PNG from one symbol.
Options: set size, quiet zone, colour, and text.
