$margin

$version A 1 to 40 integer. You can make the qr code contain more data by increasing this parameter

$eclevel Error correction level. there are 4 values: QR_ECLEVEL_L, QR_ECLEVEL_M, QR_ECLEVEL_Q, QR_ECLEVEL_H. This value indicates the ability of qr code error correction. For example, if the QR_ECLEVEL_H(the highest level) is set, if less than 30% of the area of the qr code is damaged, it can still be recognized and all the data in this qr can be restored
