Requirements
Some NFC drivers depend on third party software:
-
pn53x_usb & acr122_usb:
- libusb-0.1 http://libusb.sf.net
-
acr122_pcsc:
- pcsc-lite https://pcsclite.apdu.fr/
-
pcsc:
- Support build with pcsc driver, which can be using all compatible readers, Feitian R502 and bR500 already passed the test.
The regression test suite depends on the cutter framework: http://cutter.sf.net
Building
Note: If working directly from a git clone of the repository, some of the files need to be generated first. To do this run autoreconf -vis
Alternatively use a .tar.bz2 version of a packaged release (which already contains ./configure): https://github.com/nfc-tools/libnfc/releases/
The build should be as simple as running these commands:
./configure
make
To build with specific driver(s), see option --with-drivers=...
detailed in ./configure --help
.
Installation
make install
You may need to grant permissions to your user to drive your device. Under GNU/Linux systems, if you use udev, you could use the provided udev rules. e.g. under Debian, Ubuntu, etc.
sudo cp contrib/udev/93-pn53x.rules /lib/udev/rules.d/
Under FreeBSD, if you use devd, there is also a rules file: contrib/devd/pn53x.conf.
