Barcodes Overview

The Barcodes enable the user to easily generate images that represent QR (Quick Response) codes and barcodes.

Basic Usage

The following example demonstrates how to initialize the Barcode and QRCode.

Installation

To initialize the Barcodes, either:

• Use the CDN service, or
• Use Webpack.

Initializing with Webpack

1. Install Kendo UI and add a theme.

   Copy Codenpm install --save @progress/kendo-ui
   npm install --save @progress/kendo-theme-default

2. Install the Kendo UI Barcodes package for Vue.

   Copy Codenpm install --save @progress/kendo-barcodes-vue-wrapper

   The package also exports the following wrappers for individual components:

   • Barcode
   • QRCode

3. Import the Kendo UI packages to the App component. If you use the Kendo UI components more than once in your application, add all Kendo UI-related files to the main.js file. If you use the Kendo UI components once in your application, add the Kendo UI-related files the component where they will be referred.

   Copy Codeimport '@progress/kendo-ui' // This will import the entire Kendo UI library
   // As an alternative, you could import only the scripts that are used by a specific widget:
   // import '@progress/kendo-ui/js/kendo.dataviz.barcode' // Imports only the Barcode script and its dependencies
   // import '@progress/kendo-ui/js/kendo.dataviz.qrcode' // Imports only the QRCode script and its dependencies
   
   import '@progress/kendo-theme-default/dist/all.css'
   
   import { Barcode,
            QRCode,
            BarcodesInstaller } from '@progress/kendo-barcodes-vue-wrapper'
   
   Vue.use(BarcodesInstaller)
   
   new Vue({
       el: '#app',
       components: {
           Barcode,
           QRCode
       }
   })
