0.3.0

As always everything is reflected in the README. ;)

New features of the library :

• The dots of a QR code can now be styled or rendered in a custom style
  • Custom shapes can be created by implementing the functional interface QrCodeDotStyler
  • Predefined shapes (Specified in the QrCodeDotShape enum) are:
    • SQUARE
    • ROUNDED_SQUARE
    • CIRCLE
    • HEXAGON
    • TRIANGLE
    • HEART
    • HOUSE
    • STAR
    • DIAMOND
    • CROSS
• The image logo may now also be a base64 encoded string
• The java-sample and kotlin-sample modules have been adjusted with the new features.

New features of the User Interface of the Library:

• New Logo Handling
  • Logos are now internally persisted as Base64 encoded string
  • When exporting the config the Base64 logo makes it easy to share configs with others (Logo is already part of the json)
  • Besides selecting a logo as a file from the file system, a Base64 encoded image an directly be pasted as logo for the QR code
  • You can copy the logo also as Base64 encoded string
  • You can also delete the logo by clicking the dustbin button
• Custom Dot Shape Integration
  • Not only the predefined dot shapes mentioned above can be used by the UI, but also some custom shapes/logos and custom drawings can be selected

When you download the qr-code-app-mac-os.zip, qr-code-app-ubuntu.tar.xz or qr-code-app-windows.zip, there is no need to install Java on your machine. You simply can run the bin/qr-code-app und bin/qr-code-app.bat file.

The qr-code-app-all.jar can be started with java using java -jar qr-code-app-all.jar (here Java obviously needs to be installed)

0.2.0

New features of the library :

• The logo for the qr code image is now of type Image instead of BufferedImage to be more generic
• New QrCodeExtensions file, which adds a toBase64 function to an instance of RenderedImage
• QrCodeApi now offers a default function called createBase64QrCodeImage to generate a Base64 encoded String of the qr code image

New user interface to create qr codes using a UI with plenty of features:

• Create QR codes with a UI
• Offers a UI for simple QR codes (url, email, phone number, sms, geolocation)
• Offers a UI for more complex QR codes (vcard, vevent)
• Offers properties panel for the QR code design (colors, shapes, logo, etc.)
• Save the QR code as image
• Copy the QR code to the clipboard
• Copy the QR code as Base64 encoded string to the clipboard
