Google Chart API QR Generator is deprecated and will not be supported after 2015. Does anyone know of a better alternative to this that I can use on PHP-based websites?

  • does it have to be an api? there are many php libraries to do this. –  Jun 11 '13 at 00:01
  • @Dagon I found some but I was worried they may restrict high volume API requests. That's why I am looking for a reliable one. – user1448031 Jun 11 '13 at 00:07
  • if you install a library locally there is no volume issue. –  Jun 11 '13 at 00:11
  • Yes. Do you know of a good library that you can recommend? I found one at Sourceforge. – user1448031 Jun 11 '13 at 00:13
  • try a few see what meets your needs, i don't like recommending scripts (to many variables) –  Jun 11 '13 at 00:26
  • I assume you're talking about PHPQRCode on Sourceforge? http://phpqrcode.sourceforge.net/index.php#demo - It's simple, it works. I've used it without any issues - give it a try and see if it meets your needs – PerryW Jun 12 '13 at 04:38
  • @PerryW Yes that's the one. I will give it a try. I think it'll be good enough for me. Thanks. – user1448031 Jun 12 '13 at 04:43

Here is one that I have created.

https://github.com/edent/QR-Generator-PHP

Very easy to install on your own server. No third party dependencies so no API limits :-)
