nfc-bindings

Introduction

The project goal is to provide scripting language bindings for libnfc (http://www.libnfc.org/) through swig.

For now only Python bindings are supported (2.x and 3.x), with full docstrings.

Alternative Python bindings are provided by PyNFC (http://code.google.com/p/pynfc/source/list), which is somewhat higher-level, while the API does not seem to be fully covered.

Requirements

• libnfc >= 1.7.1
• cmake
• swig
• python

Install

git clone https://github.com/xantares/nfc-bindings.git
cd nfc-bindings
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local .
make install

Example

import nfc
context = nfc.init()
pnd = nfc.open(context)
if pnd is not None:
    if(nfc.initiator_init(pnd)<0):
        print('NFC reader: %s opened' % nfc.device_get_name(pnd))
nfc.close(pnd)
nfc.exit(context)
