encodeContent method

@override List<bool> encodeContent(String contents, [ Map<EncodeHintType, Object?>? hints ])

Encode the contents to bool array expression of one-dimensional barcode. Start code and end code should be included in result, and side margins should not be included.

@param contents barcode contents to encode @return a {@code List
