Prerequisites

This version requires Symfony 2.1

Installation

1 - Add the following lines in your composer.json:

for latest symfony 3.n kernel / framework environment:

    "require": {
        "bitgrave/barcode-bundle": "^1.0"
    }

_legacy symfony 2.1.n kernel? user version prior 1.0.0:

    "require": {
        "bitgrave/barcode-bundle": "0.0.9"
    }

2 - Run the composer to download the bundle

    $ php composer.phar update bitgrave/barcode-bundle

3 - Add this bundle to your application's kernel:

      // app/AppKernel.php
      public function registerBundles()
      {
          return array(
              // ...
              new BG\BarcodeBundle\BarcodeBundle(),
              // ...
          );
      }

Usage

1 - Add the following lines in your controller if you want to use both code types (1d/2d) :

use BG\BarcodeBundle\Util\Base1DBarcode as barCode;
use BG\BarcodeBundle\Util\Base2DBarcode as matrixCode;

2 - set the cache path (for image based barcode rendering) call the image- or html renderer including your code and barcode type :

 $myBarcode = new barCode();
 $myBarcode->savePath = '/my/temp/media/path';
 $bcPathAbs = $myBarcode->getBarcodePNGPath('501234567890', 'EAN13', 1.75, 45);
 $bcHTMLRaw = $myBarcode->getBarcodeHTML('501234567890', 'EAN13', 1.75, 45);

3 - fetch image by parse $bcPathAbs (absolute path to rendered barcode image) or using this a simple helper method

 /**
  * simple cache path returning method (sample cache path: "upload/barcode/cache" )
  *
  * @param bool $public
  *
  * @return string
  *
  */
 protected function getBarcodeCachePath($public = false)
 {

     return (!$public) ? $this->get('kernel')->getRootDir(). '/../web/upload/barcode/cache' : '/upload/barcode/cache';
 }

4 - send public path to your symfony view and put result into your image src path or just render out the alternative table based barcode html structure

 $this->render('AcmeDemoBundle:Demo:barcode.html.twig', array(
     'barcodePathAndFile' => $this->getBarcodeCachePath($bcPathAbs),
     'barcodeHTML' => $bcHTMLRaw,
 ));

 // AcmeDemoBundle:Demo:barcode.html.twig
 // ...
 <!-- barcode as image -->
 <img src="{{ barcodePathAndFile }}" alt="barcode" title="my barcode image">
 // ...
 <!-- barcode as table -->
 {{ barcodeHTML|raw }}
 // ...
