NFC plugin?

[marcalj]

I couldn't find any reference fro NFC support on Ionic Native. It is supported? There's a way to use it?

PD: If not, can be used in Ionic v1?

Thanks! :)

That would be this plugin: https://github.com/chariotsolutions/phonegap-nfc

We can definitely add a wrapper for it.

So I was just writing a wrapper for the plugin and I noticed it could be done in two ways.

1. Return an observable that connects with the callback parameter, and have two optional parameters for onSuccess and onError
2. Return a promise and have a required parameter of callback

See here: 82ccf13

I think the first option makes more sense, but I would like to know what you think.

+1 on the first option. Observable seems to be in line with how other wrappers implement this type of thing.

This import is not working in Ionic2 beta11. Ionic-native/dist/index has no exported member 'NFC'

import {NFC, Ndef} from 'ionic-native';

If I open and look for 'nfc' into Ionic-native/dist/index.js & index.d.ts, there is no reference to it.
I neither can find any plugin related to NFC into node_modules/ionic-native/dist/plugins directory.

I'm trying to work with the example from http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/native/nfc/

Could anybody help me?

Thanks

@bokgeek did you update the installed package of ionic-native? Check your package.json, please make sure you have the most recent version.

Thanks a lot @mhartington, that was the issue.
I can't even read a label but that's another story... I keep trying.

Finally I did it!

Hi folks, the phonegap-nfc plugin supports iOS now by adding two additional functions (beginSession & invalidateSession). Is there a way to implement those in the ionic native wrapper so people can use NFC for iOS with Ionic?

[mhartington]

@lehrenberg it should be possible to just add the 2 additional method to the class. If you're up for sending a Pull Request to add them, I'd be more than happy to walk you through it and merge it!

[lehrenberg]

@mhartington So I just added the two methods. Not sure if this 100% correct though. Actually never contributed before... The pull request is #2050

Hi guys, I have noticed that the ionic-native nfc does not support the invalidateSession function.
I can scan nfc on my app but the invalidateSession cannot be called so the control does not return back to the ionic app?
Any suggestions or solutions would be excellent.
Thanks
