qrdecode
SYNOPSIS

qrdecode($qr, $type='file', $imagick=false)

DESCRIPTION

qrdecode returns the character string read in an image which contains a QR code. If $type is 'file', $qr is the path name of a file of an image. If $type is 'blob', $qr is an image in its binary format. If $type is 'resource', $qr is a resource of an image. If imagick is true and if the extension imagick is installed, ImageMagick is used to read the content of $qr. qrdecode returns false if a QR code could not be read in $qr.

CODE
  1. require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
  2.  
  3. use zxing\QrReader;
  4.  
  5. function qrdecode($qr, $type='file', $imagick=false) {
  6.     if (!$qr or !$type or !in_array($type, array('file', 'blob', 'resource'))) {
  7.         return false;
  8.     }
  9.    
  10.     $qrcode = new Zxing\QrReader($qr, $type, $imagick);
  11.  
  12.     return $qrcode !== false ? $qrcode->text() : false;
  13. }

IMPORTANT: Install QR code decoder / reader for PHP, a port from the ZXing library, at the root of the website:

$ composer require zxing/qr-reader
