Code for generating paperless ASN labels with QR codes

paperless-asn-qr-codes

paperless-asn-qr-codes is a command line utility for generating ASN labels for paperless with both a human-readable representation, as well as a QR code for machine consumption. The labels are Avery 4731 labels.

Installation

pip install paperless-asn-qr-codes

Usage

usage: paperless-asn-qr-codes [-h] [--format {averyL4731,avery5160,avery5161,avery5163,avery5167,avery5371}] [--border] start_asn output_file

CLI Tool for generating paperless ASN labels with QR codes

positional arguments:
  start_asn             The value of the first ASN
  output_file           The output file to write to (default: labels.pdf)

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --format {averyL4731,avery5160,avery5161,avery5163,avery5167,avery5371}, -f {averyL4731,avery5160,avery5161,avery5163,avery5167,avery5371}
  --digits DIGITS, -d DIGITS
                        Number of digits in the ASN (default: 7, produces 'ASN0000001')
  --border, -b          Display borders around labels, useful for debugging the printer alignment

Mandatory arguments

• <start_asn>: The value of the first ASN to generate

Optional arguments

• <output_file>: The name of the output file to write to (default: labels.pdf)

---

• -h, --help: Shows the help message
• -f, --format: Selects the format of the output sheet (see Supported Sheets)
• -d, --digits: Specifies the number of digits in the ASN (e.g. for the default number 7, the ASN will look like 'ASN0000001')
• -b, --border: Generates the borders around the labels to help debug alignment issues (see Tips & Tricks)

Supported Sheets

Some different sheet types are supported with the -f/--format argument, however, not all are tested.

The default is Avery L4731.

Currently tested and known working are:

• Avery L4731 (DIN A4 Labels)

Tips & Tricks

In case your printer has alignment issues, you can generate a PDF with borders around the labels by using the -b/--border option.
