iOS Installation

Note: Please make sure to have CocoaPods on your computer. If you've installed this package before, you may need to edit your Podfile and project structure because the installation process has changed.

1. In you terminal, change into the ios directory of your React Native project.

2. Create a pod file by running: pod init.

3. Add the following to your pod file:

target '<YourProjectName>' do

# Pods for <YourProject>
pod 'EnxRTCiOS'
pod 'Socket.IO-Client-Swift', '~> 12.0.0'
end

4. Now run, pod install

5. After installing the EnxRTCiOS SDK, change into your root directory of your project.

6. Now run, react-native link enx-rtc-react-native.

7. Open <YourProjectName>.xcworkspace contents in XCode. This file can be found in the ios folder of your React Native project.

8. Click File and New File

9. Add an empty swift file to your project:

• You can name this file anything i.e: EnxInstall.swift. This is done to set some flags in XCode so the Swift code can be used.

9. Click Create Bridging Header when you're prompted with the following modal: Would you like to configure an Objective-C bridging header?

10. Ensure you have enabled both camera and microphone usage by adding the following entries to your Info.plist file:

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Your message to user when the camera is accessed for the first time</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Your message to user when the microphone is accessed for the first time</string>

If you try to archive the app and it fails, please do the following:

1. Go to Target
2. Click on Build Phases
3. Under the Link Binary With Libraries section, remove the libEnx.a and add it again
