NAME
Biblio::RFID - perl tools to use different RFID readers for library use
DESCRIPTION
Main idea is to develop simple API to reader, and than provide useful
abstractions on top of it to quickly write applications to respond on
tags which come in range of RFID reader using Biblio::RFID::Reader.
Writing support for new RFID readers should be easy.
Biblio::RFID::Reader::API provides documentation on writing support for
different readers.
Currently, two serial RFID readers based on Biblio::RFID::Reader::Serial
are implemented:
* Biblio::RFID::Reader::3M810
* Biblio::RFID::Reader::CPRM02
There is also simple read-only reader using shell commands in
Biblio::RFID::Reader::librfid.
For implementing application take a look at Biblio::RFID::Reader
`scripts/RFID-JSONP-server.pl' is example of such application. It's
local interface to RFID reader and JSONP REST server.
`examples/koha-rfid.js' is jQuery based JavaScript code which can be
inserted in Koha Library System to provide overlay with tags in range
and check-in/check-out form-fill functionality.
Applications can use Biblio::RFID::RFID501 which is some kind of
semi-standard 3M layout or blocks on RFID tags.
