Godot NFC Android Plugin

A simple NFC plugin for android games built with godot. Currently only configured to work with NDEF records.

Usage

Note: Android Studio is the recommended IDE for developing Godot Android plugins. You can install the latest version from https://developer.android.com/studio.

Building the configured Android plugin

• In a terminal window, navigate to the project's root directory and run the following command:

./gradlew assemble

• On successful completion of the build, the output files can be found in plugin/build/addon

Tips

Additional dependencies added to plugin/build.gradle.kts should be added to the _get_android_dependencies function in plugin/export_scripts_template/export_plugin.gd.

Simplify access to the exposed Java / Kotlin APIs

To make it easier to access the exposed Java / Kotlin APIs in the Godot Editor, it's recommended to provide one (or multiple) gdscript wrapper class(es) for your plugin users to interface with.

For example:

class_name PluginInterface extends Object

## Interface used to access the functionality provided by this plugin

var _plugin_name = "GDExtensionAndroidPluginTemplate"
var _plugin_singleton

func _init():
	if Engine.has_singleton(_plugin_name):
		_plugin_singleton = Engine.get_singleton(_plugin_name)
	else:
		printerr("Initialization error: unable to access the java logic")

## Shows a 'Hello World' toast.
func helloWorld():
	if _plugin_singleton:
		_plugin_singleton.helloWorld()
	else:
		printerr("Initialization error")
