|
|
|
The ``nfc`` binary sensor platform provides an easy way for you to determine if an NFC tag is presented to the reader.
|
|
The tag may be identified in one of three ways:
|
|
|
|
- By given unique ID (``uid``) -- for example ``74-10-37-94``
|
|
- By a given NDEF tag "name", or...
|
|
- By a given string contained in the tag's NDEF message/data
|
|
|
|
Note that this platform is currently supported by the :doc:`PN7150 <../pn7150>` and :doc:`PN716x <../pn7160>` only;
|
|
one of these components must be present in your device's configuration in order to use it.

# Example configuration entries
|
|
binary_sensor:
|
|
- platform: nfc
|
|
ndef_contains: pulse
|
|
name: "NFC 1 Tag"
|
|
- platform: nfc
|
|
tag_id: pulsed
|
|
name: "NFC 2 Tag"
|
|
- platform: nfc
|
|
uid: 74-10-37-94
|
|
name: "MFC Tag"
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **ndef_contains** (*Optional*, string): A (sub)string that must appear in the tag's NDEF message. May not be used
|
|
with ``tag_id`` and/or ``uid`` (below).
|
|
- **tag_id** (*Optional*, string): A string that identifies the tag; in effect, its name. Specifically, this looks
|
|
for the Home Assistant URI encoded into one of the tag's NDEF records and then looks for this specific string. May
|
|
not be used with ``ndef_contains`` and/or ``uid``.
|
|
- **uid** (*Optional*, string): The unique ID of the NFC tag. This is a hyphen-separated list of hexadecimal values.
|
|
For example: ``74-10-37-94``. May not be used with ``ndef_contains`` and/or ``tag_id`` (above).
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>`.

Setting Up Tags
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
To set up a binary sensor for a given NFC tag, you must first know either its unique ID (``uid``), tag ID (if it was
|
|
prepared using the Home Assistant Companion app) or (part of) a string that is contained within its NDEF message.
|
|
|
|
To obtain a tag's UID:
|
|
|
|
- Set up a simple NFC component (such as the :doc:`PN532 <pn532>`, :doc:`PN7150 <../pn7150>` or :doc:`PN716x <../pn7160>`)
|
|
configuration without any binary sensors.
|
|
- Approach the NFC reader with an NFC tag. When the tag is sufficiently close to the reader, you'll see a message in the
|
|
ESPHome device's logs similar to this:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
Read tag type Mifare Classic with UID 1C-E5-E7-A6
|
|
|
|
- Either:
|
|
|
|
- Copy this ID and use it to create a ``binary_sensor`` entry as shown in the configuration example above, or...
|
|
- Use the tag ID (as determined when it was prepared with the Home Assistant Companion app) to define the ``tag_id``
|
|
parameter for the ``binary_sensor`` as shown above, or...
|
|
- Choose a substring contained within the tag's NDEF message and use this to define the ``ndef_contains`` parameter
|
|
as shown in the example above. If present, the tag's NDEF records will appear in the log on the lines just below
|
|
the message shown above.
|
|
|
|
Repeat this process for each tag.
|
|
|
|
Note that, since *you* are able to define the NDEF message, this approach is more flexible and even allows multiple
|
|
cards/tags to share the same message.
