iOS sample app with CARTO Mobile SDK

• Official docs: https://carto.com/docs/carto-engine/mobile-sdk/
• Reference: http://cartodb.github.io/mobile-ios-samples/

Installation Guide

Note that we have several subprojects, for different languages (Objective-C or Swift) and level of complexity (from HelloMap to AdvancedMap), each is separate projects in Xcode point of view.

Manually downloading the SDK:

1. Get SDK package latest dev build: sdk4-ios-snapshot-latest.zip
2. Unzip it and copy CartoMobileSDK.framework to the xCode project root folder

Please note that this is not the preferred method, as the SDK itelf is too large to be uploaded to Github.

Via CocoaPods:

The following steps assume you know what Cocoapods are and have the CL tool installed on your system.

1. Navigate to a project's folder in the Terminal.
2. Type pod install to download the SDK
3. Run the project via the .xcworkspace file

Via Carthage:

The following steps assume you know what Carthage is and have the CL tool installed on your system.

1. Move Cartfile in the root of this repository to a specific project
2. Navigate to a project's folder in the Terminal.
3. Type carthage update to download the SDK
4. Add $(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS to XCode Framework Search paths (Project properties > Build )
5. Add Carthage/Build/iOS/CartoMobileSDK.framework to XCode Embedded Binaries (Project properties > General)

Cocoapod Removal

These samples are, by default, designed to work with Cocoapods. In order to deintegrate Cocoapods, do the following:

1. Navigate to a project's folder in the Terminal.
2. sudo gem install cocoapods-deintegrate cocoapods-clean
3. pod deintegrate
4. pod clean
5. Under Build Phases > Link Binary With Libraries, remove CardoMobileSDK.framework

Furthermore, note that trying to run Carthage on a project that was previously configured with cocoapoads may or may not result in errors, cf. this post

Sample structure

1. Hello Map
   • Basic sample of how to initialize a map, set a market on the map, listen to map clicks and change the color and size of that marker.
2. Advanced Map
   • Base Maps
     • Base Maps - choice of different base maps, styles, tile type and language

     • Ground Overlay - Addoung ground-level raster overlay
     • WMS Map - WMS service raster on top of a vector base map
   • Vector Objects
     • Clustered Markers - reading data from .geojson and showing it as clusters (made from custom markers)
     • Overlays - shows how to set 2D &3D objects: lines, points, polygons, tests, popups and 3D models on the map and how to attach a click listener to them
     • Vector object editing - shows usage of an editable vector layer, with three different event listeners
