SCForceUpdater

Introduction

SCForceUpdater is a simple pod which implements force update functionality for your iOS projects.

Usage

To run the example project:

1. clone this repository,
2. run pod install from the Example directory,
3. start the sinatra project from the TestServer directory to try it.

Starting the TestServer

You can start the example server by:

1. change to the TestServer directory with cd TestServer/,
2. run bundle install to install dependencies,
3. run the test server with ruby app.rb.

This will bring up the test server listening on http://localhost:4567.

Installation

SCForceUpdater is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod "SCForceUpdater"

Configuration

SCForceUpdater provides class methods to configure it.

Initialization

First you should call SCForceUpdater's initialization method: initWithITunesAppId:baseURL:versionAPIEndpoint:. A good place to do this at the beginning of your application delegate's application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method.

Also you should call the checkForUpdate method on the [SCForceUpdater sharedUpdater] singleton instance. We recommand to do this in the applicationDidBecomeActive: method of your application delegate class.

Localizations

You can also customize the localization of the application: first you should set setAlwaysUseMainBundle: to YES, after this you should be able to redefine the following locales:

Key	Meaning
sc.force-updater.soft.title	Title for soft update
sc.force-updater.soft.message	Message for soft update
sc.force-updater.soft.update	Update button text for soft update
sc.force-updater.soft.later	Later button text for soft update
sc.force-updater.soft.no-thanks	No thanks! button text for soft update
sc.force-updater.hard.title	Title for hard update
sc.force-updater.hard.message	Message for hard update
sc.force-updater.hard.update	Update button text for hard update

Messages (sc.force-updater.[soft|hard].message) are formattable. There is two parameter that they can handle: display name of the application and the upcoming version.

Like in the default localization: "Great news! There’s an updated version of {displayName} ({versionNumber}), we recommend you install it."

Display name of the application

You can set the displayName of your application if you want. You can achive this by calling the setDisplayName: class method with the required name.

Response keys

We are parsing JSON objects inside the pod. The default keys are: last_version for the version key and update_type for the update type key.

The defaults can be changed through two setter methods: setLastVersionResponseKey: and setUpdateTypeResponseKey:.
