Amazon IVS Multi-host for iOS Demo

A demo SwiftUI iPhone application intended as an educational tool to demonstrate how you can build a real-time collaborative live streaming experience with Amazon IVS.

A screenshot of the demo application running on an iPhone.

This project is intended for education purposes only and not for production usage.

Prerequisites

You must have the ApiUrl from the Amazon IVS Multi-host Serverless Demo.

Setup

  1. Clone the repository to your local machine.
  2. Install the SDK dependency using CocoaPods: pod install
  3. Open MultiHost-demo.xcworkspace.
  4. Set the API_URL constant in the Constants.swift file to equal the ApiUrl from your deployed Amazon IVS Multi-host Serverless Demo.
  5. Since iPhone simulators don't currently support the use of cameras or ReplayKit in this app, there are a couple changes you need to make before building and running the app on a physical device.
    1. Have an active Apple Developer account in order to build to physical devices.
    2. Modify the Bundle Identifier for the MultiHost-demo target.
    3. Choose a Team for the target.
  6. You can now build and run the project on a device.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Joining a stage and streaming in the app will create and consume AWS resources, which will cost money.
