It targets low-level reader and tag work rather than a single application workflow, exposing reader, initiator, and target features through a portable API and companion command-line tools. ### Projektgeschichte The README identifies libnfc as a Free/Libre Near Field Communication library and credits early historical contributors including Roel Verdult in 2009, Romuald Conty from 2009-2015, Romain Tartiere from 2010-2012, Philippe Teuwen from 2010-2013, and Ludovic Rousseau from 2012-2013. The project moved its official development center to GitHub after older web and forum sites disappeared. The nfc-tools project page describes broad operating-system support across GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, and POSIX-style builds. ### Adoptionsgeschichte libnfc became a familiar dependency for desktop and embedded NFC experimentation because it supports inexpensive PN53x-class hardware, PC/SC readers, MIFARE Classic, FeliCa, ISO/IEC 14443 A/B, Jewel/Topaz, and peer-to-peer data exchange modes. ### Wie es verwendet wird The package ships many small diagnostic and manipulation tools, including nfc-list, nfc-poll, nfc-scan-device, nfc-mfclassic, nfc-mfultralight, and pn53x utilities. Official configuration examples use /etc/nfc/libnfc.conf and per-device files under /etc/nfc/devices.d when built with sysconfdir=/etc. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Package maintainers care about libnfc because it is where hardware access, udev/devd rules, USB libraries, PC/SC integration, and optional drivers all meet. It is also a hub for the nfc-tools ecosystem, with nearby projects such as libfreefare, libllcp, libndef, mfcuk, mfoc, and pam_nfc. ### Zeitleiste - 2009: README copyright notes identify Roel Verdult and Romuald Conty among the early libnfc contributors. - 2015: The nfc-tools project page identified GitHub as the code host and listed related nfc-tools projects. - 2020-05-21: libnfc 1.7.2 was released, with the changelog warning it was incompatible with 1.7.1. - 2020-05-22: libnfc 1.8.0 restored enum ordering compatibility and bumped the library version to 6.0.0. ### Related projects - Related nfc-tools projects include libfreefare, libllcp, libndef, mfcuk, mfoc, nfc-eventd, nfcutils, and pam_nfc. - Hardware and protocol dependencies named by the project include libusb, pcsc-lite, PN53x devices, PC/SC readers, MIFARE Classic, and FeliCa. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise generalized runtime or code generation signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** yellow / mittel - generalized runtime or code generation signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
