sudo apt install libgdiplus

Mac

brew update
brew install mono-libgdiplus

Using

var barcode = new Barcode("543534"); // default: Code128

Change barcode type

var barcode = new Barcode("543534", Type.Code93);

Show label

var barcode = new Barcode("543534", Type.Code128, true);

Saving in a image file

var value = barcode.SaveImageFile("./path"); // default: ImageFormat.Jpeg

Change image format

var value = barcode.SaveImageFile("./path", ImageFormat.Png); // formats: Bmp, Gif, Jpeg, Png...

Get string with base64 image to use in HTML

var value = barcode.GetBase64Image();

To manipulate the image

var image = barcode.GetImage();

Version 1.5

ImageSharp was added in place of System.Drawing due to break of support from .NET 6, more information click here. There is a small compatibility break only if you are manipulating the image with the GetImage method or customizing font and color. In these cases the namespaces have changed to SixLabors.ImageSharp.
