Nfc With Javascript

is there any JavaScript NFC API? I would like to read tags from a WebApplication (without PhoneGap). Or is there any way to use the NFC from JavaScript through JAVA? Best

Solution 1:

In the near future it could be possible to use NFC directly from the browser, check this out

Or, if you want more info about then you can check the Mozilla MDN Doc about this! Sounds interesting indeed

Based on this link, you can also check if you browser has support for NFC.

Interesting link about it: Web NFC Community Group report

Solution 2:

You can't read tags from webApplication. Browsers does not communicate with NFC resources (it bored me too!!) The unique way to implementing NFC features with Javascript through Android Browser is using a WebView or framework like phoneGap in a native app.

Solution 3:

I haven't tried actually tried it myself, but there is a a number of NFC plugins 1,2,3 for PhoneGap. This should allow you to use NFC in your HTML applications. See also:

Solution 4:

They have proprietary API that support JavaScript or Java applets connection to their NFC reader. API is free of charge and seems as very good alternative.
