An Objective-C Wrapper for the Designer News API to make it easier integrate the apop in your iOS/Mac app.
This mini library includes features such as getting posts(Top & Recent) & MOTD, Comments, Searching DN, User Authentication, Commenting & Upvoting.
The definitive Cocoa framework for adding HackerNews to your iOS/Mac app. This mini library includes features such as grabbing Posts (including filtering by Top, Ask, New, Jobs, Best), Comments, Logging in, and Submitting new posts/comments!
Installing DNManager is a easy. First things first, add all of the classes in the top-level DNManager Classes folder inside of this repository into your app. Done? Good. Now, just #import "DNManager.h" in any of your controllers, classes, or views you plan on using DNManager in. That's it. We're done here.
Please note that DNManager requires AFNetworking 2.0
Classes to add:
- DNManager.{h,m}
- DNStory.{h,m}
- DNUser.{h,m}
- DNComment.{h,m}
- DNMOTD.{h,m}
DNManager is a Singleton class, and has a sharedManager initialization.
I don't have time to write up some documentation at the moment but the code is simple (have a look at the header file).
I implement every feature of the api as described here
The only exception is getiing the details of comment, given the ID. I replaced this to create a method that creates a flat array of all the comments for a story. This is really all you need to create a tableview for the comments.
I would appreciate any pull requests to add some documentation :)
Enjoy! It's my first proper open source contribution (there's no other ios wrapper atm), the code & its architecture is some of my best work.
Star if you like it. If you want to reach out to me about it, my twitter is @tosinaf
I can't wait to show you where I'm gonna use this api ;)
