NfcReactNative

nfc-ndef-react-native is a react-native module for android to write/read tags that support the NDEF format (tested on Mifare Classic). This is a fork of Lube's nfc-react-native. It only writes strings to the ndef records. So you can write and read essentially an array of strings to your card. With some minor tweaking to the Java, you could make it support other data types as well.

Quick and Easy Demo

$ git clone https://github.com/observ3r/nfc-ndef-react-native $ cd nfc-ndef-react-native/example $ npm install $ react-native run-android

Getting started

$ npm install nfc-ndef-react-native --save

Mostly automatic installation

After running this command, go through the Configuration section:

$ react-native link nfc-ndef-react-native

If it doesn't work for any reason, follow the manual installation AND the configuration section.

Manual installation

Android

1. Open up android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainApplication.java

• Add import es.tiarg.nfcndefreactnative.NfcNdefReactNativePackage; to the imports at the top of the file
• Add new NfcNdefReactNativePackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method

2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:

   include ':nfc-ndef-react-native'
   project(':nfc-ndef-react-native').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir,  '../node_modules/nfc-ndef-react-native/android')

3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:

     compile project(':nfc-ndef-react-native')

Usage

Take a look at the example.

Configuration

In your manifest add:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NFC" />
....

Your main activity should look something like this:

...
<activity
  android:name=".MainActivity"
  android:launchMode="singleTask"
  android:label="@string/app_name"
  android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize">

  <intent-filter>
			<action android:name="android.nfc.action.NDEF_DISCOVERED"/>
			<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>	
			<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
            <action android:name="android.nfc.action.TECH_DISCOVERED"/>
  </intent-filter>

  <meta-data android:name="android.nfc.action.TECH_DISCOVERED"
             android:resource="@xml/nfc_tech_filter" />
</activity>

Add android/app/src/main/res/xml/nfc_tech_filter.xml (create directories that don't exist) with the following:

<resources xmlns:xliff="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2">
  <tech-list>
    <tech>android.nfc.tech.Ndef</tech>
    <tech>android.nfc.tech.NdefFormatable</tech>
  </tech-list>
</resources>
