Annotated URL Example

An example showing reading from formatted NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) messages.

The Annotated URL example displays the contents of specifically formatted NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) messages read from an NFC Tag. The NDEF message should contain a URI record, an optional image/* MIME record, and one or more localized Text records.

这是范例的初始状态:

In this example the NFC Tag used contains a text record and an URI record. The UI gets updated accordingly to:

When the screen is tapped, the URL will be opened in the browser.

AnnotatedUrl 类定义

AnnotatedUrl 类包裹 QNearFieldManager , the class providing the NFC Tag detection functionality. NDEF messages are read by QNearFieldManager and forwarded to a handler contained in the AnnotatedUrl class. After parsing the NDEF message the class emits the annotatedUrl() signal. The UI reacts to the signal displaying the contents of the NDEF message.

class AnnotatedUrl : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit AnnotatedUrl(QObject *parent = 0);
    ~AnnotatedUrl();
    void startDetection();
signals:
    void annotatedUrl(const QUrl &url, const QString &title, const QPixmap &pixmap);
    void nfcStateChanged(bool enabled);
    void tagError(const QString &error);
public slots:
    void targetDetected(QNearFieldTarget *target);
    void targetLost(QNearFieldTarget *target);
    void handleMessage(const QNdefMessage &message, QNearFieldTarget *target);
    void handlePolledNdefMessage(QNdefMessage message);
    void handleAdapterStateChange(QNearFieldManager::AdapterState state);
private:
    QNearFieldManager *manager;
    QNdefFilter messageFilter;
};
					

注意: startDetection() method is used to defer the actual tag detection until all the connections between the UI and NFC-related logic are established. This is important when the application is automatically started once an NFC tag is touched. Such usecase is currently supported on Android.

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    MainWindow mainWindow;
    AnnotatedUrl annotatedUrl;
    QObject::connect(&annotatedUrl, &AnnotatedUrl::annotatedUrl,
                     &mainWindow, &MainWindow::displayAnnotatedUrl);
    QObject::connect(&annotatedUrl, &AnnotatedUrl::nfcStateChanged,
                     &mainWindow, &MainWindow::nfcStateChanged);
    QObject::connect(&annotatedUrl, &AnnotatedUrl::tagError,
                     &mainWindow, &MainWindow::showTagError);
    annotatedUrl.startDetection();
    mainWindow.show();
    return a.exec();
}
					

消息过滤

As it is mentioned above, the application supports the NDEF messages of a specific format. A correct message should contain the following fields:

  • At least one NDEF Text record, which will be used as a header.
  • Exactly one NDEF URI record.
  • An optional MIME record with an icon.

The order of the records is not strictly specified.

实例化的 QNdefFilter is used to validate the NDEF message. The filter is populated as follows:

    messageFilter.setOrderMatch(false);
    messageFilter.appendRecord<QNdefNfcTextRecord>(1, 100);
    messageFilter.appendRecord<QNdefNfcUriRecord>(1, 1);
    messageFilter.appendRecord(QNdefRecord::Mime, "", 0, 1);
					

If the incoming message does not match the filter, an error message is shown:

注意: NDEF (NFC 数据交换格式) 编辑器 example application can be used to create the tags with correct or incorrect message structure.

AnnotatedUrl 处理程序实现

NFC messages read by the QNearFieldManager are forwarded to AnnotatedUrl::handleMessage .

void AnnotatedUrl::handleMessage(const QNdefMessage &message, QNearFieldTarget *target)
{
					

At first the messages are validated using the QNdefFilter::match () method:

    if (!messageFilter.match(message)) {
        emit tagError("Invalid message format");
        return;
    }
					

If the messages have the correct format, the parsing continues.

Because NFC messages are composed of several NDEF records, looping through all of the records allows the extraction of the 3 parameters to be displayed in the UI: the Uri, the Title and the Pixmap:

    for (const QNdefRecord &record : message) {
        if (record.isRecordType<QNdefNfcTextRecord>()) {
            QNdefNfcTextRecord textRecord(record);
            title = textRecord.text();
            QLocale locale(textRecord.locale());
        } else if (record.isRecordType<QNdefNfcUriRecord>()) {
            QNdefNfcUriRecord uriRecord(record);
            url = uriRecord.uri();
        } else if (record.typeNameFormat() == QNdefRecord::Mime &&
                   record.type().startsWith("image/")) {
            pixmap = QPixmap::fromImage(QImage::fromData(record.payload()));
        }
					

Finally after having extracted the parameters of the NFC message the corresponding signal is emitted so that the UI can handle it.

    }
    emit annotatedUrl(url, title, pixmap);
}
					

适配器状态处理

On Android the adapter state changes can be detected by connecting to the QNearFieldManager::adapterStateChanged () signal. This allows stopping the detection when the NFC adapter is disabled, and restarting it when the adapter is enabled again. This approach is implemented in the AnnotatedUrl::handleAdapterStateChange 槽。

void AnnotatedUrl::handleAdapterStateChange(QNearFieldManager::AdapterState state)
{
    if (state == QNearFieldManager::AdapterState::Online) {
        startDetection();
    } else if (state == QNearFieldManager::AdapterState::Offline) {
        manager->stopTargetDetection();
        emit nfcStateChanged(false);
    }
}
					

自动启动应用程序

Android supports automatic application startup when the NDEF tag is touched. See Qt NFC on Android for the required changes to the Android manifest file.

Introduction of a custom AndroidManifest.xml requires special steps on the build system side.

采用 qmake 构建

When using qmake, the following needs to be added to the .pro 文件:

android {
    ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR = $$PWD/android
    DISTFILES += \
        android/AndroidManifest.xml
}
					
构建采用 CMake

When using CMake, the following needs to be added to the CMakeLists.txt :

if(ANDROID)
    set_property(TARGET annotatedurl
        APPEND PROPERTY QT_ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR
        ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/android
    )
endif()
