Create an iOS application

We have applications available for Node.js Express, Go Gin, Python Flask, Python Django, Java Spring, Java Liberty, Swift Kitura, Android, and iOS.

In this sample, you will create an iOS application complete with standard best practices built for IBM Cloud.

Steps

Building Locally

To get started building this application locally, you can run the application natively.

Native Application Development

• Install the latest Xcode 11.0+ version.
• iOS 12.0+
• Swift 5.0

To run your application locally:

The IBM Cloud Mobile services SDK uses CocoaPods to manage and configure dependencies.

You can install CocoaPods using the following command:

$ sudo gem install cocoapods

If the CocoaPods repository is not configured, run the following command:

$ pod setup

For this starter, a pre-configured Podfile is included in the ios_swift/Podfile location. To download and install the required dependencies, run the following command in the ios_swift directory:

$ pod install

Open the Xcode workspace: {APP_Name}.xcworkspace. Continue to open the .xcworkspace file as it contains all the dependencies and configurations.

If you run into any issues during the pod install, it is recommended to run a pod update by using the following commands:

$ pod update
$ pod install

Click Product > Run to start the app in Xcode.

Your application will be running within your chosen device emulator.
