Generate a UPC-A Barcode in Node.JS

Barcodes are integral throughout business operations for tracking, shipping, and selling. Furthermore, including your barcode in your packaging design can add a professional look to your products. The following API will allow you to generate a UPC-A Barcode image using Node.JS.

Run this command to install the SDK:

npm install cloudmersive-barcodeapi-client --save

Or add this snippet to your package.json:

"dependencies": {
    "cloudmersive-barcodeapi-client": "^1.1.2"
  }

Then, call the function:

var CloudmersiveBarcodeapiClient = require('cloudmersive-barcodeapi-client');
var defaultClient = CloudmersiveBarcodeapiClient.ApiClient.instance;
// Configure API key authorization: Apikey
var Apikey = defaultClient.authentications['Apikey'];
Apikey.apiKey = 'YOUR API KEY';
var apiInstance = new CloudmersiveBarcodeapiClient.GenerateBarcodeApi();
var value = "value_example"; // String | UPC-A barcode value to generate from
var callback = function(error, data, response) {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
  } else {
    console.log('API called successfully. Returned data: ' + data);
  }
};
apiInstance.generateBarcodeUPCA(value, callback);

This will return a downloadable PNG image containing your barcode. You can retrieve the API Key from the Cloudmersive website at no cost and with no commitment. This will provide you with 800 monthly calls across our library of APIs.
