Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:

$ gem install cocoapods [--pre]

CocoaPods 1.4.0+ is required to build EmbeddedSocial SDK.

To integrate EmbeddedSocial SDK into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

target '<Your Target Name>' do
  use_frameworks!

  pod 'EmbeddedSocial', :git => 'https://github.com/Microsoft/EmbeddedSocial-iOS-SDK.git', :branch => 'develop', :submodules => true
  
end

post_install do |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    	target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        	config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = ‘3.2’
        end
    end
end

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

Usage

Info.plist

Insert the following lines in your Info.plist file in your project:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
	<string>fbapi</string>
	<string>fb-messenger-api</string>
	<string>fbauth2</string>
	<string>fbshareextension</string>
	<string>twitter</string>
	<string>twitterauth</string>
</array>

For Sign In functionality works, you should register your Application Bundle Identifier in:

• Microsoft Developer Console
• Google Developer Console
• Facebook Developer Console
• Twitter Developer Console

After your Application registered, you will receive API keys. You should insert following lines in your Info.plist file:

<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
<array>
	<dict>
		<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
		<array>
			<string> *YOUR FB APP KEY* </string>
		</array>
	</dict>
	<dict>
		<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
		<array>

AppDelegate.swift

Please, insert the following lines in your AppDelegate.swift file.

For SDK initialization:

func application(_ application: UIApplication,
                     didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
             
    let args = LaunchArguments(app: application,
                               window: window!,
                               launchOptions: launchOptions ?? [:],
                               menuHandler: SideMenuItemsProvider,
                               menuConfiguration: .tab)
    SocialPlus.shared.start(launchArguments: args)

    return true
}

For URL shemes handling:

func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey: Any] = [:]) -> Bool {
    return SocialPlus.shared.application(app, open: url, options: options)
}

For Push Notifications handling:

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) {
    let deviceTokenString = deviceToken.reduce("", {$0 + String(format: "%02X", $1)})
    SocialPlus.shared.updateDeviceToken(devictToken: deviceTokenString)
}

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification data: [AnyHashable : Any]) {
    SocialPlus.shared.didReceiveRemoteNotification(data: data)
}

Advanced Usage

Menu

Menu Types

You can implement on of three menu types provided by SideMenuType:

public enum SideMenuType {
    case tab, dual, single
}

You can specify this in AppDelegate.swift with menuConfiguration parameter in LaunchArguments. For example:

let args = LaunchArguments(..., menuConfiguration: .tab | .dual | .single)

Menu Handler

You can implement your own menu items. You should make implementation for SideMenuItemsProvider:

public protocol SideMenuItemsProvider: class {
    func numberOfItems() -> Int
    func image(forItem index: Int) -> UIImage
    func imageHighlighted(forItem index: Int) -> UIImage
    func title(forItem index: Int) -> String
    func destination(forItem index: Int) -> UIViewController
}

You can handle this in AppDelegate.swift with menuHandler parameter in LaunchArguments. For example:

let menu: SideMenuItemsProvider = MyMenuImplementation()
let args = LaunchArguments(..., menuHandler: menu , ...)

Example

If you will have problems with SDK implementation, please, follow the Example Application.
