# Getting Started with PhoneGap NFC on BlackBerry 10

Hardware & Software
* OSX 10.10.5
* BB10 WebWorks SDK 2.2.0.15
* Cordova 5.5.3
* PhoneGap NFC 0.6.5
* BlackBerry Z10 running 10.3.1.156

Create the project and install the plugins

cordova create nfc com.example.nfc HelloNFC
cd nfc
cordova platform add blackberry10
cordova plugin add phonegap-nfc
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-bb-invoke

edit `www/js/index.js` and replace `onDeviceReady` with

onDeviceReady: function() {
app.receivedEvent('deviceready');

// Read NDEF formatted NFC Tags
nfc.addNdefListener (
function (nfcEvent) {
var tag = nfcEvent.tag,
ndefMessage = tag.ndefMessage;

// dump the raw json of the message
// note: real code will need to decode
// the payload from each record
alert(JSON.stringify(ndefMessage));

// assuming the first record in the message has
// a payload that can be converted to a string.
alert(nfc.bytesToString(ndefMessage[0].payload).substring(3));
},
function () { // success callback
alert("Waiting for NDEF tag");
},
function (error) { // error callback
alert("Error adding NDEF listener " + JSON.stringify(error));
}
);
},

Edit `config.xml` and `<rim:invoke-target>` just before `</widget>`. (See docs for more info about [invoke-target](https://github.com/chariotsolutions/phonegap-nfc#blackberry-10-invoke-target
).)

<rim:invoke-target id="your.unique.id.here">
<type>APPLICATION</type>
<filter>
<action>bb.action.OPEN</action>
<mime-type>application/vnd.rim.nfc.ndef</mime-type>
<!-- any TNF Empty(0), Well Known(1), MIME Media(2), Absolute URI(3), External(4) -->
<property var="uris" value="ndef://0,ndef://1,ndef://2,ndef://3,ndef://4" />
</filter>
</rim:invoke-target>

Compile, install, and run

cordova run
