This one takes a CSV file as a parameter and creates a PNG image file for each of the entries found in the CSV file. Optionally a third option can be given in the CSV file, that is a logo to embed in the QR code.

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -i FILENAME, --inputfile FILENAME

Example

Assume that we have a file called fsfe.csv with a couple of activity URLs of various FSFE activities prepared (see below). Running the following command will create a QR code for all of these activities.

python3 qrgenerator.py -i fsfe.csv

CSV Format

Take for example the following CSV table.

http://example.com, qrcode_example, ./fancylogo.png
http://example.com, qrcode

Two QR codes will be generated qrcode_example.png and qrcode.png both with a QR code of http://example.com. One of the two created QR codes will have the fancylogo.png file embedded in the center of the QR code.

Note that you don't have to supply the file name ending for the PNG image file, the QR code will be saved in.
