PCSC Sample in Ruby

This document summarizes a blog post about using a PC/SC wrapper library in Ruby to communicate with smart cards. It provides installation instructions for the PC/SC wrapper gem, sample code to select an applet and send test APDUs to a card, and output showing the response is "Hello world!". The code demonstrates connecting to a reader, selecting an applet, transmitting commands, and disconnecting from the card.

PCSC sample in Ruby Ludovic Rousseau blog

Here is the PCSC sample in Ruby language I promised in PC/SC sample in different languages. Follow

A PC/SC Wrapper for Ruby also exists at Smart­card communication, straight from ruby.. The latest version
is 0.4.11 from 2009. I used an older version 0.3.1 when I worked with this wrapper.
