Mesibo iOS SDK for Chat, Video and Voice Calls, and Conferencing

Install Using CocoaPods

CocoaPodsopen_in_new is an open source dependency manager for Swift and Objective-C Cocoa projects, which automates the process of using 3rd-party libraries like mesibo in your projects.

If you already have the CocoaPods tool, skip to Step 2.

Step 1: Install CocoaPods

You can install CocoaPods by running the following commands in Terminal.app:

$ sudo gem install cocoapods
$ pod setup

Depending on your Ruby installation, you may not have to run as sudo to install the cocoapods gem.

Step 2: Create a Podfile

Project dependencies to be managed by CocoaPods are specified in a file name Podfile. Create this file in the same directory as your Xcode project (.xcodeproj) file and Copy and paste the following lines into it:

target "YourTargetName" do
    source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
    pod 'mesibo'
end

This will install mesibo core SDK into your project.

Step 3: Install Mesibo Core SDK Framework

Now you can install or update to the latest mesibo frameworks in your project:

$ pod install
$ pod update

From now on, be sure to always open the generated Xcode workspace (.xcworkspace) instead of the project file when building your project:

$ open <YourProjectName>.xcworkspace

You can always update to the latest version by running above commands.

Step 4: Install Mesibo Calls & Conferencing and Messaging UI Framework

Similarly, you can also install mesibo-calls and mesibo-ui framework as following:

target "YourTargetName" do
    source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
    pod 'mesibo-ui'
    pod 'mesibo-calls'
end

You also need to add Metal and MetalKit frameworks in your project to use mesibo-call framework.

Pod Troubleshooting

In case pod is not able to sync all the frameworks, following can help

rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
rm -rf Pods
rm Podfile.lock
pod cache clean --all
pod install --repo-update

Disable bitcode and use a physical device if you are using Calls framework.

Install Manually

You can add mesibo frameworks manually to your project.

You can download all the Mesibo frameworks for iOS from GitHubopen_in_new OR by by running the following commands in Terminal.app:
