## Installation
Add qrcode and tui-qrcode to your Cargo.toml. You can disable the default features of qrcode as
we don't need the code which renders the QR code to an image.
```shell
cargo add qrcode tui-qrcode --no-default-features
```
## Usage
This example can be found in the `examples` directory of the repository.
```rust
use qrcode::QrCode;
use ratatui::crossterm::event;
use ratatui::{DefaultTerminal, Frame};
use tui_qrcode::{Colors, QrCodeWidget};
fn main() -> color_eyre::Result<()> {
color_eyre::install()?;
let terminal = ratatui::init();
let result = run(terminal);
ratatui::restore();
result
}
fn run(mut terminal: DefaultTerminal) -> color_eyre::Result<()> {
loop {
terminal.draw(render)?;
if matches!(event::read()?, event::Event::Key(_)) {
break Ok(());
}
}
}
fn render(frame: &mut Frame) {
let qr_code = QrCode::new("https://ratatui.rs").expect("failed to create QR code");
let widget = QrCodeWidget::new(qr_code).colors(Colors::Inverted);
frame.render_widget(widget, frame.area());
}
```
Renders the following QR code:
