Eidolon
The Artsy Auction Kiosk App.
Project Status
Downloading the Code
The following commands will set up Eidolon with the expectation that you don't have API access and will use blanks for API keys. (Note that you'll need Xcode's command line tools installed first.)
git clone https://github.com/artsy/eidolon.git
cd eidolon
make ossAlrighty! We're ready to go!
Getting Started
Now that we have the code downloaded, we can run the
app using Xcode 6.1.1. Make sure to
open the Kiosk.xcworkspace workspace, and not the Kiosk.xcodeproj project.
Currently, the project is compatible with Xcode 6 only, as it's swift.
Artsy has licensed fonts for use in this app, but due to the terms of that
license, they are not available for open source distribution. This has required
us to use private pods.
The Podfile deals with the differences transparently.
The Artsy API is private, making it difficult for open source developers to run the app. If you don't have access to the private Artsy fonts pod, then Eidolon infers that it should use stubbed data instead of hitting the live API.
Contributing
This project is being developed by Artsy primarily for its use as Artsy's auction kiosk app, and we are not expecting to have significant community contributions back to it. We are developing this project in the open because it is not part of our core IP, and open source is part of our job. However, if you notice something that is wrong or could be improved, don't hesitate to send us a pull request.
