Getting started on iOS

Add dependency using CocoaPods

• Create a Podfile if you don't already have one. From the root of your project directory, run the following command: pod init
• Add THEOliveSDK as a dependency in your Podfile: pod 'THEOliveSDK', '1.0.0'
• Install the pods using pod install , then open your .xcworkspace file to see the project in Xcode.

Embedding a player in your app

Import the SDK

import THEOliveSDK

Create a THEOlivePlayer

let player = THEOlivePlayer()

Create a view controller for the player using

let playerViewController = THEOlivePlayerViewController(player: player)

Then embed this view controller in one of your own view controllers

let yourViewController = UIViewController(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)

yourViewController.addChild(playerViewController)
yourViewController.view.addSubview(playerViewController.view)
playerViewController.didMove(toParent: yourViewController)

Controlling your player

To control the player use the player property of the THEOlivePlayerViewController. For more information of the player API see you can download the API documentation here: THEOliveSDK-1.0.0.doccarchive.zip
