Using with CocoaPods
Our SDK can be accessed only with cocoa pods. If you are unfamiliar with it, please follow this document then return when you are ready.
Installing the latest dependency
Use the following entry in your Podfile:
pod 'WearnotchSDK', :podspec => "https://s3.amazonaws.com/wearnotch-media/public/iOS-Releases/{latest_version_number}.json"
Important changes from v 1.9.0
Due to a mandatory static library you need to manually remove some frameworks from your top pod module.
Copy the following script at the end of your pod file and update your target name properly.
# Remove the static WearnotchSDK libraries from the app target in order to avoid duplicated static library copy
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
# Remove only from the main app target
# IMPORTANT: Insert target name here
if target.name == "Pods-{YOUR_APP_POD_TARGET_NAME_IN_YOUR_POD_FILE}"
puts "Updating #{target.name} OTHER_LDFLAGS"
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
xcconfig_path = config.base_configuration_reference.real_path
# read from xcconfig to build_settings dictionary
build_settings = Hash[*File.read(xcconfig_path).lines.map{|x| x.split(/\s*=\s*/, 2)}.flatten]
# modify OTHER_LDFLAGS
build_settings['OTHER_LDFLAGS']['-framework "JRE"'] = ""
build_settings['OTHER_LDFLAGS']['-framework "JSR305"'] = ""
build_settings['OTHER_LDFLAGS']['-framework "WearnotchSDK"'] = ""
# write build_settings dictionary to xcconfig
File.open(xcconfig_path, "w")
build_settings.each do |key,value|
File.open(xcconfig_path, "a") {|file| file.write("#{key} = #{value}")}
end
end
end
end
end
Latest version is available in the changelogs
Then use this command in the project directory:
pod install
If you have any problem with the locked Alamofire version, simply remove that line from the Podfile.lock and execute the install again.
Use the generated .xcworkspace from now on.
In any file you’d like to use WearnotchSDK in, don’t forget to import the framework with import WearnotchSDK.
Permissions
Do not forget to specify the following Bluetooth privacy options in your application info.plist file:
<key>NSBluetoothPeripheralUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) needs bluetooth access Notches via bluetooth.</string>
<key>NSBluetoothAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) needs bluetooth access Notches via bluetooth.</string>
Usage
Create a singleton service:
public static let service = try! NotchAPI.Builder().build().service
Good to know If you want to develop your app without using notches it is possible to use a ‘mock’ build of the service. All the service calls will return with success after a short delay. Create a service by setting the ‘isMock’ property to true:
public static let service = try! NotchAPI.Builder()
.build(isMock: true)
.service
