Our team looking is to add barcode capability to confirmation e-mails generated by the CiviEvent system. The barcode will basically be a .jpg image that will be attached.

Our idea is that after the registration is complete an e-mail confirmation will be sent to the registrant and embedded inside this confirmation e-mail is where the barcode feature needs to be added. Users of the system will print the confirmation e-mail, which contains the embedded barcode, and bring it to events where they may scan the barcode using a barcode scanner.

We are looking for help on the best solution and approach. Is there any similar work on this aspect that has been done previously?

I've uploaded as a reference 3 Time sequence diagrams that show how this implementation will work.

Any input is appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
