-# nitrokey-rs
-
-A libnitrokey wrapper for Rust providing access to Nitrokey devices.
-
-[Documentation][]
-
-## Compatibility
-
-The required [`libnitrokey`][] version is built from source. The host system
-must provide `libhidapi-libusb0` (Linux) or `libhidapi` (non-Linux) in the
-default library search path. Depending on your system, you might also have to
-install the [Nitrokey udev rules][].
-
-Currently, this crate provides access to the common features of the Nitrokey
-Pro and the Nitrokey Storage: general configuration, OTP generation and the
-password safe. Basic support for the secure storage on the Nitrokey Storage is
-available but still under development.
-
-### Unsupported Functions
-
-The following functions provided by `libnitrokey` are deliberately not
-supported by `nitrokey-rs`:
-
-- `NK_get_device_model`. We know which model we connected to, so we can
- provide this information without calling `libnitrokey`.
-- `NK_is_AES_supported`. This method is no longer needed for Nitrokey devices
- with a recent firmware version.
-- `NK_set_unencrypted_volume_rorw_pin_type_user`,
- `NK_set_unencrypted_read_only`, `NK_set_unencrypted_read_write`. These
- methods are only relevant for older firmware versions (pre-v0.51). As the
- Nitrokey Storage firmware can be updated easily, we do not support these
- outdated versions.
-- `NK_totp_get_time`, `NK_status`. These functions are deprecated.
-- `NK_read_HOTP_slot`. This function is only available for HOTP slots, not for
- TOTP. We will support it once both types are supported by `libnitrokey`.
-- All `*_as_string` functions that return string representations of data
- returned by other functions.
-
-## Tests
-
-This crate has tests for different scenarios: Some tests require that no
-Nitrokey device is connected, others require a Nitrokey Storage or a Nitrokey
-Pro. We use the [`nitrokey-test`][] crate to select the test cases. You can
-just run `cargo test` to auto-detect connected Nitrokey devices and to run the
-appropriate tests. If you want to manually select the tests, set the
-`NITROKEY_TEST_GROUP` environment variable to `nodev` (no device connected),
-`pro` (Nitrokey Pro connected) or `storage` (Nitrokey Storage connected).
-
-Note that the tests assume that the device’s passwords are the factory defaults
-(admin PIN `12345678`, user PIN `123456`, update password `12345678`) and that
-an AES key has been built. Some tests will overwrite the data stored on the
-Nitrokey device or perform a factory reset. Never execute the tests if you
-don’t want to destroy all data on any connected Nitrokey device!

-## Acknowledgments
-
-Thanks to Nitrokey UG for providing two Nitrokey devices to support the
-development of this crate. Thanks to Daniel Mueller for contributions to
-`nitrokey-rs` and for the `nitrokey-test` crate.
-
-## Minimum Supported Rust Version
-
-This crate supports Rust 1.34.2 or later.
