Maintainer Platforms

The common ground of electronic identity cards, in pure Dart: commands, file reading, card insertion and the values national cards share. Country packages such as eid_belgium read the cards themselves.

  eid: ^0.1.0

Transports

A CardTransport carries bytes to a card. Adapters:


eid_ccid	A USB or PC/SC card reader

Any other is one method:

final class MyTransport implements CardTransport {
  @override
  Future<Uint8List> transmit(Uint8List command) async {
    // Return the response, status bytes included.
  }
}

Read a file

final channel = CardChannel(transport, onApdu: print);
await channel.selectPath([0x3F00, 0xDF01, 0x4031]);
final file = await channel.readTransparentFile();

A refused command throws a CardException, an unreachable card a CardTransportException. onApdu never sees a PIN.

Cards going in and out

final watcher = CardWatcher(AnyCardTerminal(listTerminals))..start();
watcher.events.listen((event) {
  switch (event) {
    case CardInserted inserted:
      read(inserted.connection);
    case CardRemoved _:
      clear();
  }
});

AnyCardTerminal watches every terminal, those plugged in later included.

Shared values
