The native Embla iOS client has been DEPRECATED. Embla on iOS is now implemented in Flutter and all future development takes place in this repo.
Embla is an Icelandic-language voice assistant powered by the Greynir query engine. This is the repository for the native Embla iOS client.
Written in Objective-C for iOS 13.0+. Probably only builds on a recent version of macOS.
Building the app requires Xcode 12+ and CocoaPods.
After cloning the repository, run the following command from the repo root:
$ pod install
Once installation is complete, open Embla.xcworkspace with Xcode and build. Alternatively, you
can build an unsigned debug app binary by running the build script from the repository root:
$ ./build.sh
The build script requires xcpretty, which you can install
with the following command:
$ sudo gem install xcpretty
NB: In order to function correctly, the app requires a valid API key for Google's Speech-to-Text API. The key should be saved in the following text file:
Keys/GoogleAPI.key
The Embla iOS client uses Snowboy for hotword detection and Google's Speech-to-Text API for speech recognition.
