# smartcard

Smartcard library.

This is a simple wrapper around [Santiago Gimeno's](https://www.npmjs.org/~sgimeno) great [pcsclite](https://github.com/santigimeno/node-pcsclite) library.

Used by [Card Spy](http://card-spy.surge.sh)

## Examples

### With event emitter

```javascript
'use strict';

const smartcard = require('smartcard');
const Devices = smartcard.Devices;
const devices = new Devices();

devices.on('device-activated', (event => {
console.log(`Device '${event.device}' activated`);
event.devices.map((device, index) => {
console.log(`Device #${index + 1}: '${device.name}'`);
});
}));
```

### Using promises

```javascript
'use strict';

const smartcard = require('smartcard');
const Devices = smartcard.Devices;
const devices = new Devices();

devices.onActivated().then(event => {
console.log(`Device '${event.device}' activated`);
event.devices.map((device, index) => {
console.log(`Device #${index + 1}: '${device.name}'`);
});
});
```

### Selecting the Payment Systems Environment on an EMV (Chip & Pin) card

```javascript
'use strict';

const smartcard = require('smartcard');
const Devices = smartcard.Devices;
const Iso7816Application = smartcard.Iso7816Application;

const devices = new Devices();

devices.on('device-activated', event => {
const currentDevices = event.devices;
let device = event.device;
console.log(`Device '${device}' activated, devices: ${currentDevices}`);
for (let prop in currentDevices) {
console.log("Devices: " + currentDevices[prop]);
}

device.on('card-inserted', event => {
let card = event.card;
console.log(`Card '${card.getAtr()}' inserted into '${event.device}'`);

card.on('command-issued', event => {
console.log(`Command '${event.command}' issued to '${event.card}' `);
});

card.on('response-received', event => {
console.log(`Response '${event.response}' received from '${event.card}' in response to '${event.command}'`);
});

const application = new Iso7816Application(card);
application.selectFile([0x31, 0x50, 0x41, 0x59, 0x2E, 0x53, 0x59, 0x53, 0x2E, 0x44, 0x44, 0x46, 0x30, 0x31])
.then(response => {
console.info(`Select PSE Response: '${response}' '${response.meaning()}'`);
}).catch(error => {
console.error('Error:', error, error.stack);
});

});
device.on('card-removed', event => {
console.log(`Card removed from '${event.name}' `);
});

});

devices.on('device-deactivated', event => {
console.log(`Device '${event.device}' deactivated, devices: [${event.devices}]`);
});
