Python and Django framework generate two-dimensional code method analysis, pythondjango framework
This article describes how to generate a QR code using Python and Django framework. We will share this with you for your reference. The details are as follows:
I. package installation and simple use
1.1 It is very easy to generate a QR code using Python. You can check the qrcode package:
pip install qrcode
Qrcode depends on the Image package:
pip install Image
If this package is difficult to install, you can use a Python-only package to implement this function. See the following.
1.2 after installation, you can use it. This program carries a qr command:
qr 'http://www.ziqiangxuetang.com' > test.png
1.3 let's take a look at how to use it in the code.
import qrcodeimg = qrcode.make('http://www.tuweizhong.com')# img <qrcode.image.pil.PilImage object at 0x1044ed9d0>with open('test.png', 'wb') as f: img.save(f)
In this way, you can generate a QR code with a URL, but you have to save the file to the hard disk.
[Note]: Use of Python-only packages:
Installation:
pip install git+git://github.com/ojii/pymaging.git#egg=pymagingpip install git+git://github.com/ojii/pymaging-png.git#egg=pymaging-png
The usage is roughly the same, on the command line:
qr --factory=pymaging "Some text" > test.png
Python call:
import qrcodefrom qrcode.image.pure import PymagingImageimg = qrcode.make('Some data here', image_factory=PymagingImage)
2. Use in Django
We can use Django to directly return the generated content to the webpage. the operation procedure is as follows:
2.1 create a zqxtqrcode project, tools application:
django-admin.py startproject zqxtqrcodepython manage.py startapp tools
2.2 Add the tools application to the Project settings. py.
INSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'tools',)
2.3 modify tools/views. py
from django.http import HttpResponseimport qrcodefrom cStringIO import StringIOdef generate_qrcode(request, data): img = qrcode.make(data) buf = StringIO() img.save(buf) image_stream = buf.getvalue() response = HttpResponse(image_stream, content_type="image/png") response['Last-Modified'] = 'Mon, 27 Apr 2015 02:05:03 GMT' response['Cache-Control'] = 'max-age=31536000' return response
After processing the returned results, the browser caches the images and increases the reload speed. For details about Cache-Control and Last-Modified, refer to the HTTP protocol.
2.4 Add the view function to zqxtqrcode/urls. py.
url(r'^qrcode/(.+)$', 'tools.views.generate_qrcode', name='qrcode'),
2.5 synchronize the database and open the Development Server:
python manage.py syncdbpython manage.py runserver
