    :code:`<height>`: integer (1, 2, 3, 4, ...) - the height of the barcode - default1D = 30, default2D = 3
    
    :code:`<color>`: in hexadecimal format (#FF0000) - the color of the barcode
    
    :code:`<show_value>`: boolean value (0, 1) - only for 1D barcode - displays the value under the barcode
