WiFiQR-Gen (Wi-Fi QRCode Generator)

Python package that generates Wi-Fi QR Codes that can be scanned for easily connecting to Wi-Fi.

Installation

pip install WiFiQRGen

Usage

Basic Usage

To generate a Wi-Fi QR Code, you need to create a WifiNetworkSettings object. For a basic home network, you'll need to provide the SSID, password, and security type. The security type is an enum from the WifiSecurity class. Optionally, if you're network is hidden, you can set the hidden parameter to True, however it is False by default and assumes the network is visible.

Options for the WifiSecurity enum are:

• WifiSecurity.NONE
• WifiSecurity.WEP
• WifiSecurity.WPA
• WifiSecurity.WPA2
• WifiSecurity.WPA3

from WiFiQRGen import WifiSecurity, WifiNetworkSettings

wifi_settings = WifiNetworkSettings(
    ssid="MyWifiNetworkName",
    password="MyWifiPassword12345",
    security=WifiSecurity.WPA2
)

my_qr_code = wifi_settings.generate_qrcode()
my_qr_code.save("wifi_qr_code.png")

Advanced Usage (Enterprise Networks)

For enterprise networks, you'll need to provide additional information. The WifiNetworkSettings object has additional parameters for this. You'll need to provide the SSID, password, security type, EAP method, and phase 2 authentication. The EAP method is an enum from the WifiEapMethod class and the phase 2 authentication is an enum from the WifiPhase2Auth class.

Options for the WifiEapMethod enum are:

• WifiEapMethod.NONE
• WifiEapMethod.PEAP
• WifiEapMethod.TLS
• WifiEapMethod.TTLS
• WifiEapMethod.PWD
• WifiEapMethod.SIM
• WifiEapMethod.AKA
• WifiEapMethod.AKA_PRIME

Options for the WifiPhase2Auth enum are:

• WifiPhase2Auth.NONE
• WifiPhase2Auth.PAP
• WifiPhase2Auth.CHAP
• WifiPhase2Auth.MD5
• WifiPhase2Auth.MSCHAP
• WifiPhase2Auth.MSCHAPV2
• WifiPhase2Auth.GTC

You can also provide a logo to be displayed in the center of the QR Code. The logo should be a square image. The generate_qrcode method takes an optional embeded_image_path parameter.

The generate_base64_qrcode_png method takes an optional embeded_image_path parameter and returns a base64 string of the QR Code image.

from WiFiQRGen import WifiSecurity, WifiEapMethod, WifiPhase2Auth, WifiNetworkSettings

wifi_settings = WifiNetworkSettings(
    ssid="MyWifiNetwork",
    password="MyWifiPassword12345",
    security=WifiSecurity.WPA2,
    eap_method=WifiEapMethod.PEAP,
    phase2_auth=WifiPhase2Auth.MSCHAPV2,
    hidden=True,
    identity="MyUsername"
)

# Generate QR Code with logo in center
my_qr_code = wifi_settings.generate_qrcode('path/to/logo.png')
# Save QR Code to file
my_qr_code.save("wifi_qr_code.png")
# Generate QR Code with a logo in the center and get it as a base64 string
base64_qr_code = my_qr_code.generate_base64_qrcode_png('path/to/logo.png')
