angularx-qrcode - Angular QR Code Generator
angularx-qrcode
- a fast and easy-to-use Ivy compatible Ionic and Angular QR Code Generator library
Features
- Compatible with Angular and Ionic
- Ivy compiler support, AOT, SSR (Server Side Rendering)
- Under active development
- Accessibility (a11y) attributes supported (alt, aria-label, title)
- Support for images
- Trusted and used by thousands of developers like you
angularx-qrcode
is compatible with Ionic 3/4/5 and Angular 4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16+ with support for the Ivy compiler. It is a drop-in replacement for the no-longer-maintained angular component ng2-qrcode and based on node-qrcode.

Usage
Import the module and add it to your imports section in your main AppModule:
// File: app.module.ts
// all your other imports...
import { QRCodeModule } from 'angularx-qrcode';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent
],
imports: [
QRCodeModule
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
// File: app.component.html
// all your HTML...
<qrcode [qrdata]="'Your data string'" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>
Examples
The source for a live angularx-qrcode demo app and more examples how to implement angularx-qrcode is in the folder projects/demo-app
in this repository.
Generate a QR Code from a string (directive only)
Now that angular/Ionic know about the new QR Code module, let's invoke it from our template with a directive. If we use a simple text-string, we need no additional code in our controller.
<qrcode [qrdata]="'Your data string'" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>
Create a QR Code from a variable in your controller
In addition to our <qrcode>
-directive in app.component.html
,
lets add two lines of code to our controller app.component.ts
.
// File: app.component.ts
export class QRCodeComponent {
public myAngularxQrCode: string = null;
constructor () {
// assign a value
this.myAngularxQrCode = 'Your QR code data string';
}
}
// File: app.component.html
<qrcode [qrdata]="myAngularxQrCode" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>
Download a QR Code
The online demo contains a working sample
how to download the QR Code with a button.
Getting the QR Code URL
To download the QR Code, we have to use the qrCodeURL
attribute
of the <qrcode>
which returns a sanitized URL representing the
location of the QR Code.
// File: example.ts
export class QRCodeComponent {
public myAngularxQrCode: string = "";
public qrCodeDownloadLink: SafeUrl = "";
constructor () {
this.myAngularxQrCode = 'Your QR code data string';
}
onChangeURL(url: SafeUrl) {
this.qrCodeDownloadLink = url;
}
}
// File: example.html
<qrcode (qrCodeURL)="onChangeURL($event)" [qrdata]="myAngularxQrCode" [width]="256" [errorCorrectionLevel]="'M'"></qrcode>
<a [href]="qrCodeDownloadLink" download="qrcode">Download</a>
The file format obtained by qrCodeURL
depends directly on the
elementType of <qrcode>
. If it's either canvas, url or image,
it returns an image as .png
, if it's svg, returns a .svg
file.

Demo
Working online demo of Angular QR Code Generator
The source for the angular app is available in projects/demo-app
. Run the command
ng serve demo-app --open
and open the url http://localhost:4200/
in your browser
AOT - Ahead Of Time Compilation
angularx-qrcode
supports AOT Compilation (Ahead-of-Time Compilation) which results in significant faster rendering. An AOT-enabled module is included. Further reading: https://angular.io/guide/aot-compiler
SSR - Server Side Rendering
As of version 1.6.0, SSR support is fully implemented, the following workaround is no longer needed. HowTo use Angular QRCode with SSR
