Component body

This is a very tiny module just for displaying a block with QR Code of current Page URL. Its highly configurable from block configuration page. To go there you just need to click on this block's contextual menu. This modules solely purpose is to provide just a page URL block out of the box. No, complexity and no other functionality.

Also added support for where Google is restricted. Specially for China.

Future integration:
Will be compatible with hash (#) based URL which doesn't refresh the page at all.

Installation:
Just simple installation, Put this module in module directory and enable it. There is no dependency.

More Advanced Alternatives:
Other modules currently do exist delivering more advanced functionality than this. But if your need is very simple like this module then they are not much time worthy. These are the alternative modules I am aware of:

  • Barcode: Will generate QR codes, and barcodes.. and a bunch of other stuff. Not nearly as simple as this project.
  • Google QR Code Generator: Its is seems tiny but you can not customize the block as much as this project can. You can not add ALT text or caption from block or anywhere else.
  • QR Codes: Sounds good right? It's not ported to Drupal 7 unfortunately and there isn't even a dev version for D7.
