php GS1 DataMatrix

PHP GS1 DataMatrix is a PHP library that allows you to generate GS1 DataMatrix barcodes in PHP. GS1 DataMatrix is a 2D barcode that can store a large amount of data, including product information, serial numbers, and expiration dates. It is commonly used in the healthcare industry for tracking medical products and devices.

To use the PHP GS1 DataMatrix library, you first need to install it using Composer. Once installed, you can create a new instance of the library and set the barcode data using the setData() method. You can then generate the barcode image using the generateImage() method and save it to a file or output it to the browser.

Here's an example of how to generate a GS1 DataMatrix barcode using the PHP GS1 DataMatrix library:

use GS1\DataMatrix\Encoder;
use GS1\DataMatrix\Renderer\ImageRenderer;

// Barcode data
$data = "(01)12345678901234(17)130901(10)ABC123";

// Create encoder and set data
$encoder = new Encoder();
$encoder->setData($data);

// Create renderer and set options
$renderer = new ImageRenderer();
$renderer->setModuleSize(5);
$renderer->setQuietZoneSize(10);

// Generate barcode image
$image = $renderer->render($encoder->encode());

// Output image to browser
header('Content-Type: image/png');
imagepng($image);

// Or save image to file
imagepng($image, 'barcode.png');

This code will generate a GS1 DataMatrix barcode with the data `(01)12345678901234(17)130901(10)ABC123` and output it to the browser as a PNG image.
