Required Entitlements
The following entitlements must be added to your Xcode target—
- Access Wi-Fi Information
- Access Hotspot Configuration
Connecting to a Camera
import OpenAlpha
let oa = OpenAlpha()
let hotspot = OpenAlpha.Hotspot(ssid: "DIRECT-SSID:ILCE-7M2", passphrase: "1234abcd")
do {
let ip = try await oa.connect(to: hotspot)
let media = try await oa.media(ip: ip)
print(media) // [Media]
} catch {
fatalError(error.localizedDescription)
}
You can also create a Hotspot
object by passing a String
value, which is useful if you have retrieved a hotspot configuration from a QR code. For information on how to scan and process QR codes, see this tutorial.
Internally, this initializer makes use of Scanner
and attempts to construct a valid Hotspot
object from the String value.
Media
objects contain three Asset
properties: small
, large
, and thumbnail
. Each Asset object has a single data
property, which is a NSData/Data
object representing a JPEG image. You can use this data to create a UIImage/NSImage
or similar object:
let image = UIImage(data: media[0].large.data)
imageView.image = image
