> PHP wrapper for the ZXing barcode library

PHPZxing is a Composer-installable PHP wrapper around the ZXing Java library for reading barcodes and QR codes. It shells out to the local JRE, supports try-harder mode, multiple barcodes per image, crop, and format filters — and has been adopted widely enough to be featured on the primary ZXing GitHub repository.
