Use barcode in plugin
-
Hello guys,
i an trying to generate barcodes using the following script: BarcodePHPAlso, i am creating my plugin using the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate
Heres my code(inside the public plugin folder):
class Coupons { ... private function __construct() { ... add_shortcode( 'coupons', array ($this, 'coupons_shortcode') ); .. } public function coupons_shortcode() { // Including all required classes require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGArgumentException.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGBarcode.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGBarcode1D.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGFontFile.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGFontFile.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGColor.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGDrawing.php'); require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGFontPhp.php'); // Including the barcode technology require_once('/includes/barcode/class/BCGcode39.barcode.php'); // Loading Font $font = new BCGFontFile('./includes/barcode/font/Arial.ttf', 18); // Don't forget to sanitize user inputs $text = isset($_GET['text']) ? $_GET['text'] : 'HELLO'; // The arguments are R, G, B for color. $color_black = new BCGColor(0, 0, 0); $color_white = new BCGColor(255, 255, 255); $drawException = null; try { $code = new BCGcode39(); $code->setScale(2); // Resolution $code->setThickness(30); // Thickness $code->setForegroundColor($color_black); // Color of bars $code->setBackgroundColor($color_white); // Color of spaces $code->setFont(new BCGFontPhp(5)); // Font (or 0) $code->parse($text); // Text } catch(Exception $exception) { $drawException = $exception; } /* Here is the list of the arguments // 1 - Filename (empty : display on screen) // 2 - Background color */ $drawing = new BCGDrawing('', $color_white); if($drawException) { $drawing->drawException($drawException); } else { $drawing->setBarcode($code); $drawing->draw(); } // Header that says it is an image (remove it if you save the barcode to a file) header('Content-Type: image/png'); header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="barcode.png"'); // Draw (or save) the image into PNG format. $drawing->finish(BCGDrawing::IMG_FORMAT_PNG); } }
I am using the [coupons] shortcode inside a page, but when i run the code, i do not get the Barcode, insted i get a message that “The image https://localhost/wordpress/?page_id=2 contains errors”.
The following code inside the coupons_shortcode, is the same as the example provided by the barcodephp example.
I am running this code localy, and i have enabled the gd2 library.
Has anyone tried this before?
Can you please help me?[Moderator Note: No bumping. If it’s that urgent, consider hiring someone.]
