wrappers for libnfc?

[Ofer Nave]

First time playing with hardware.  Just got a PN532 hooked up to a Raspberry Pi, installed libnfc, was able to use nfc-poll -- everything's working.

However, my C is very rusty, so I'd like to control it with a high level language like Ruby, Python, or Perl.  I found a ruby gem called 'nfc', and it worked, but it only reads, not writes.  I found a python module called 'nfcpy', but it fails to detect the device.  I don't see any other viable candidates.

Suggestions?

RFIDIOt can now use libnfc as reader, have a look.

nfcpy is not using libnfc.

There is also a wrapper pynfc, but maybe it needs some small updates to
match the current libnfc API.

Hi Ofer,

You mentioned you were able to get the nfc Ruby gem working with the PN532. I've been having trouble with it. Can you provide some sample code or let me know what you had to do to get it working?

Thanks,

Mark
