You can read NFC with libnfc written in PHP. Requirements ============ [](#requirements) - PHP 7.4+ - PHP FFI - libnfc 1.8.0 (*if you use NFC reader for PaSoRi RC-S330*) - libusb 1.0.24 (*if you use NFC reader for PaSoRi RC-S380*) Tested ====== [](#tested) - OS - Mac Big Sur - RaspberryPi (Raspbian) - FeliCa - PASMO - Suica - KONAMI e-AMUSEMENT pass - Pixel5 - PaSoRi RC-S330 - You **cannot** touch Apple Wallet on iOS - - PaSoRi RC-S380 (experimental) - Supported only to a FeliCa - You can touch Apple Wallet on iOS - [![](images/pasori.jpg)](images/pasori.jpg) Quick start =========== [](#quick-start) Mac --- [](#mac) ### RC-S330 [](#rc-s330) 1. Install libnfc ``` $ brew install libnfc ``` 2. Install this library ``` $ composer require m3m0r7/nfc-for-php ``` 3. Connect NFC Device into your machine. 4. Run example code ``` $ cd /path/to/nfc-for-php $ php examples/nfc-poll-simple.php ``` 5. Put your NFC [![](images/felica.png)](images/felica.png) 6. You can get output.

Connect NFC Device into your machine. 4. Run example code ``` $ cd /path/to/nfc-for-php $ php examples/rcs380-nfc-poll-simple.php ``` 5. Put your NFC 6. You can get output. NFC binary ========== [](#nfc-binary) We're providing NFC binary in `vendor/bin`. And you can use 3 commands `start`, `ls` and `version` start ----- [](#start) Start to listen NFC reader. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc start ``` You can change the driver if you want to use other driver. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc start -D DriverName ``` You can specify hook events in CLI command. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc start -E /path/to/events.php ``` For example, you can use example file. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc start -E ./vendor/m3m0r7/nfc-for-php/examples/event-manager.php ``` And you want to more details, please run below command. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc start --help ``` ls -- [](#ls) Show available devices. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc ls ``` You can change the driver if you want to use other driver. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc ls -D DriverName ``` And you want to more details, please run below command. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc ls --help ``` version ------- [](#version) Show PHP driver version. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc version ``` You can change the driver if you want to use other driver. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc version -D DriverName ``` And you want to more details, please run below command. ``` ./vendor/bin/nfc version --help ``` How to use ========== [](#how-to-use) - See examples Troubleshooting =============== [](#troubleshooting) Q. How to recognize a device? ----------------------------- [](#q-how-to-recognize-a-device) A. You must have granted permission to user. I already test on RaspberryPI (Raspbian), it should grant to access permission to `/dev/*` or using super user (e.g., the root user). If you did not have permissions, cannot recognize a device on your environment and the libusb return an error `LIBUSB_ERROR_ACCESS`. Q. Cannot start second time or later on macOS --------------------------------------------- [](#q-cannot-start-second-time-or-later-on-macos) A. You must reconnect the connected USB plug because libnfc/libusb return an invalid packet in the macOS when second time or later. I don't know how to fix it.
