iOS SDK Quickstart

Overview

In this guide, you will create a HelloWorld app using Xcode and integrate the ScreenMeet Mobile SDK.  You will be able to being streaming the app to the ScreenMeet session.

Prerequisites

• Latest version of Xcode is installed.
• Latest version of cocoapods is installed.
• You have a Mobile API key generated for your organization.
• You have access to create a remote support session for your organization either through Salesforce or the ScreenMeet Console.

Step 1 -- Create a New Project in Xcode.

Step 2 -- Specify the Product Name for the new app, then click Next.

Step 3 -- Specify the location where the project should be created.  Set the project compatibility to "Xcode 13.0-compatible".

Step 4 -- Close the project, open a terminal and navigate to your HelloWorld folder.

Step 5 -- Initialize Cocoapods for your project and edit the Podfile, adding the ScreenMeetSDK dependency.

Initialize Cocoapods within the HelloWorld Project:

pod init

Edit the podfile with your favorite editor.

vi Podfile

Add the ScreenMeetSDK pod dependency.

  pod 'ScreenMeetSDK', '~> 3.0.7'

Update the platform declaration

  platform :ios, '16.0'

Add the following post_install section to your podfile (for Xcode 14.3):

post_install do |installer|
    installer.generated_projects.each do |project|
          project.targets.each do |target|
              target.build_configurations.each do |config|
                  config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '13.0'
               end
          end
   end
end

Now install the dependencies and create the workspace:

pod install

Step 6 -- Return to Xcode and open the xcworkspace file.

Step 7 -- Disable Bitcode for the HelloWorld project.

Step 8 -- Add the the SDK initialization and session initiation code to ContentView.swift

import ScreenMeetLive

            .onTapGesture {
                ScreenMeet.config.organizationKey = "YOUR API KEY"
                ScreenMeet.connect("YOUR SESSION CODE", "Frank") {(error) in
                    guard error == nil else {
                        //DO SOME ERROR HANDLING
                        print("ERROR")
                        return
                    }
                    print("SUCCESS... Start sharing...")
                    ScreenMeet.shareScreen(SMVideoSource.screen)
                }
            }

Step 9 -- Add the entitlement in the Info.plist file

This is needed to allow screen recording/replay.

Running the HelloWorld app

Press the play button and launch the app.

Tap on the text "Hello, world!" to connect. You will be presented with a permission dialog:

Accept and you are now AppStreaming.  Congratulations.
