QuickStart

Sample app boilerplate

The following app demonstrates an example of using the WiFi SDK (and the Location SDK).

The app is ready to run but you have to set your own credentials by putting them into plist file. To test the WiFi section, based on Passpoint, you have to use a physical iOS device and have an access point configured in a Cloud4Wi account.

Installation

CocoaPods

Add pod 'c4w-wifi-sdk' to your Podfile and run pod install.

Swift Package Manager

https://github.com/Cloud4Wi-Create/iOS-WifiSDK-SwiftPackage

Configuration

In order to connect SDK to your Cloud4Wi account, you have to specify 'clientKey' and 'clientSecret'.

You can set them in your App Info.plist file by adding two following keys:

<key>com_cloud4wi_sdk_wifi_api_client_key</key>
<string>{CLIENT-KEY-VALUE}</string>
<key>com_cloud4wi_sdk_wifi_api_client_secret</key>
<string>{CLIENT-SECRET-VALUE}</string>

Required Capabilities

In order to use the SDK you have to add the 'Hotspot Configuration' capability to your application

Usage example

This example represents the following use-case:

Read the list of organization policies (the term "policies" is used to refer to consents and agreements that are configured on the Cloud4Wi account)
Creating new customer
Verifying customer credentials in API by retrieving customer info (optional)
Create WPA2-Enterprise Wi-Fi profile on iOS device

let cloud4WiSDKWiFi = Cloud4WiSDKWiFi.init()
var error: NSError? = nil

// Policies
cloud4WiSDKWiFi.getListOfPolicies { (policies) in
	if let policies = policies {
		var approvedPolicies: Dictionary = [String: String]()
		for policy in policies {
			approvedPolicies[policy] = "true"
		}
		let customer = Customer()
		customer?.firstName = "John"
		customer?.lastName = "Red"
		customer?.email = "[email protected]"
		customer?.policies = approvedPolicies
		
		cloud4WiSDKWiFi.createCustomer(customer, deduplicate: "email") { (customerResponse) in
			if let customerResponse = customerResponse {
				print("INFO: Customer successfully created")
				cloud4WiSDKWiFi.getCustomerInfo(customerResponse.username, password: customerResponse.password) { (info) in
					print("INFO: Customer with provided credentials exists")
					if let username = customerResponse.username, let password = customerResponse.password {
						self.createCertificateWithUser(username, andPassword: password, andMobileSDK: cloud4WiSDKWiFi, success: success)
					}
				} onError: { (error) in
					if let error = error {
						DispatchQueue.main.async {
							print("ERROR. Cannot check credentials:")
							success(false)
						}
						return
					}
				}
			} else {
				DispatchQueue.main.async {
					print("No customerResponse found")
					success(false)
				}
				return
			}
		} onError: { (error) in
			if let error = error as NSError? {
				DispatchQueue.main.async {
					print("ERROR. Cannot create customer")
					success(false)
				}
				return
			}
		}
	} else {
		DispatchQueue.main.async {
			print("No policies found")
			success(false)
		}
		return
	}
} onError: { (error) in
	DispatchQueue.main.async {
		if let error = error {
			print("ERROR. get list of policies")
			success(false)
		}
		return
	}
}

       }];
   } onError: ^(NSError *error) {

}];

Keep the customer update

To track the last seen date of the customer and to keep always updated the remote push notification token (if applicable) it is necessary to call the method every time the app starts

func initC4w(pushToken: String)

you can put it into didFinishLaunchingWithOptions for example

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
    let cloud4WiSDKWiFi = Cloud4WiSDKWiFi.init()
    cloud4WiSDKWiFi.initC4w("remote_push_token")
}

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    Cloud4WiSDKWiFi *cloud4WiSDKWiFi = [[Cloud4WiSDKWiFi alloc] init];
    [cloud4WiSDKWiFi initC4w:@"remote_push_token"];
}
