Using getTopNRankersFromFacebook with access token string.

Sun, 13 Aug 2017 15:57:08 +0000

I want to fetch facebook top rankers using API method - getTopNRankersFromFacebook but this method requires access token string as parameter. I am using latest Swift API provided by facebook in which Acces Token is a Struct and i am not able to find an option to get token string.

Can you please help me out with that or if there exists any other API which supports current struct as input parameter?

Looking forward for a quick response :)

Thanks

Timer class conflicts Timer of Swift 3

Sun, 23 Jul 2017 08:52:02 +0000

I am using App42 iOS SDK API and it contains a Timer.h class which conflicts the Swift's own Timer class. Does this mean i will not be able to use Swift's timer in my App?

It is a basic practice to use prefixes in classnames while creating a framework so that it may not conflict with apple's framework classes. Can you please help me out with any other API in swift which works or update the current framework?

Help publishing to Appstore

Sun, 18 Jun 2017 11:25:42 +0000

Hi, I'm trying to publish an App to the AppStore but apple asks if my app uses encryption or https calls. My code doesn't use encryption but I'm not sure if the SDK of App42 does, so if my app uses the storage service and Firebase notifications, what should I answer??

Query Count and Random Result

Wed, 05 Apr 2017 03:03:22 +0000

So this is a two part question. I have a table of say 1000 documents. One element of each document is "visited". Ultimately, what I want to do is pull down 1 random record where visited = false. My oriignal approach was to count how many records have visited == false. However, the findAllCount does not have a query option. Then I would do a random from 0..

PS. Trying to avoid using Query Find with paging to get the document count. I dont want it to return 1000's of records just to get a count.

App42 blocks main thread after application becomes active

Mon, 06 Feb 2017 11:08:25 +0000

Hello!

The app is freezing every time it becomes active. It seems that it synchronizing the data on the main thread and locks it.

(See screenshot - https://www.dropbox.com/s/9t2cxxmgtt40l7t/Screen%20Shot%202017-02-01%20at%201.37.00%20PM.png?dl=0)

Sometimes during this process splash screen from our app is visible, but we have seen random screen from our app instead of splash and it also continues for ~10-20 seconds. (See video - https://www.dropbox.com/s/aque3itfprr25c2/IMG_0314.MOV?dl=0)

The worst case is when a user is prompted with any iOS permission (for example 'Camera permission') and after confirming he need to wait ~10-20 seconds before app will become responsible. (See video - https://www.dropbox.com/s/zlff52u0h294uxg/MUSEUM_FREEZE.mov?dl=0)

For testing I've created a new project and have linked 3.5.5.3/AsyncAPI/Shephertz_App42_iOS_API.framework and I have the same issue.

Then I've tried to disable all tracking services, but it doesn't help:

[App42API setOfflineStorage:NO];

[App42API enableCrashEventHandler:NO];

[App42API enableAppStateEventTracking:NO];

[App42API enableAppAliveTracking:NO];

[App42API enableEventService:NO];

[App42API enableApp42Trace:NO];

All these issues are very critical for our application and UX and we hope that you can help us to improve the performance.

Thank you!

Unable to show push message inside app...

Thu, 21 Jul 2016 18:26:53 +0000

Hi Rajeev,

I'm able to send push notifications to my device. But when i click on that notification it just opens the app. No message is shown inside the app.

Code used by me:

if (application.applicationState == UIApplicationStateActive) {

NSString *cancelTitle = @"Close";

NSString *showTitle = @"Show";

NSString *message = [[userInfo valueForKey:@"aps"] valueForKey:@"alert"];

UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Some title"

message:message

delegate:self

cancelButtonTitle:cancelTitle

otherButtonTitles:showTitle, nil];

[alertView show];

[alertView release];

} else {

//Do stuff that you would do if the application was not active

}

But unable to show my message with the help of above code. Above code only works when my app is open that is in foreground state than only this alert gets displayed else not.

Please help.

Thanks.

delay action when using Storage Service

Thu, 24 Mar 2016 22:20:58 +0000

Hi, I'm using SDK version 3.4 and Swift language. When I use find document method in Storage Service to get my json, the response always comes later when my action in ViewController and my json always prints nil. I use dispatch_after to delay the print action but it still does not work. can you please help?

class DataManager {

var wishList = App42API.buildStorageService() as? StorageService
var json: [String: AnyObject]! // I need to assign data into this variable

init() {

    wishList?.findAllDocuments(dataBase, collectionName: collectionName, completionBlock: {(success, response, exception) -> Void in

        if(success){
            let storage = response as! Storage
            let jsonDocList = storage.jsonDocArray
            var jsonString: String {
                var someString: String = ""
                for jsonDoc in jsonDocList{
                    someString = jsonDoc.jsonDoc
                }
                return someString
            }
            let data = jsonString.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: false)!
            do {
                self.json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions()) as! [String: AnyObject]
            }catch{
                print(error)
            }
        }else{
                    NSLog("%@", exception.reason!)
                    NSLog("%d", exception.appErrorCode)
                    NSLog("%d", exception.httpErrorCode)
                    NSLog("%@", exception.userInfo!)
                }})}})}

The print line always prints "error" in ViewController

    override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let delayInSeConds = 2.0
    let popTime = dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, Int64(delayInSeConds * Double(NSEC_PER_SEC)))
    var GlobalMainQueue: dispatch_queue_t{
        return dispatch_get_main_queue()
    }
    dispatch_after(popTime, GlobalMainQueue){
        if DataManager.sharedInstance.json != nil{
            print("json is not nil")
        }else{
            print("error") // It always prints error since json is nil
        }
    }

Parse JSON return nil iOS Swift

Mon, 14 Mar 2016 09:45:53 +0000

Hi the below is a snippet of my code

var wishList = App42API.buildStorageService() as? StorageService

var json: [String: AnyObject]!

    init() {

  wishList?.findAllDocuments(dataBase, collectionName: collectionName, completionBlock: {(success, response, exception) -> Void in

            if(success){

                let storage = response as! Storage

                let jsonDocList = storage.jsonDocArray

                var jsonString: String {

                    var someString: String = ""

                    for jsonDoc in jsonDocList{

                        someString = jsonDoc.jsonDoc

                    }

                    return someString

                }

                let data = jsonString.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: false)!

                do {

                    self.json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions()) as! [String: AnyObject]

                }catch{

                    print(error)

                }

                print(self.json)

            }else{

                        NSLog("%@", exception.reason!   }})}})}

func printJSON(){

        if json != nil{

        print(json)

        }else{

            print("error") //Always return nil: error

        }

    }

The variable json only has value when it's in the if(success) statement. Even after it has been successfuly executed in the if(success) statement and I try to use the variable json elsewhere, it always returns nil.

Can you please help as of why this is the case? How do I keep the value in json outside the if(success) statement?

NameResolutionFailure when CreateUser() On Xamarin Ios

Sat, 27 Feb 2016 20:10:29 +0000

Hi,

We are developing a mobile app in Xamarin Native, and we got the following execption when we are trying to create

a new user:

System.Net.WebException: Error: NameResolutionFailure

at com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.connection.RESTConnectorAsync.ExecutePost (System.String url, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2 paramsDics, System.String bodyPayLoad, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2 headerParams) [0x0010b] in <filename unknown>:0

at com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.user.UserService.CreateUser (System.String uName, System.String pwd, System.String emailAddress) [0x00125] in <filename unknown>:0

The weird thing is that we are devoloping to android in the same project and with the exacte same code,

but we get the execption only in iOS.

furthermore, the android code creates the user in the DB.

We are using this SDK: App42_CSHARP_SDK_2.0

The code:

private void signUp(string i_Email, string i_Password)

{

try

{

BackendServices.GetUserService.CreateUser(i_Email, i_Password, i_Email);

txtSignUpResult_iOS.Text = "You Are Signed in as " + i_Email + "!";

}

catch (Exception e)

{

txtSignUpResult_iOS.Text = "Error: Please Check Youre User Credentials";

}

i get this exeption:

System.Net.WebException: Error: NameResolutionFailure

at com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.user.UserService.CreateUser (System.String uName, System.String pwd, System.String emailAddress) [0x00125] in <filename unknown>:0

How to keep user logged in? IoS Swift

Thu, 04 Feb 2016 04:37:10 +0000

Hi, I'm using App42 and Swift for my app. I'm trying to log the users in and keep them logged in, so they don't have to sign in everytime they open the app. I have searched through the forum on this topic and I seem to get the general approach to it: - Authenticate user which will produce a sessionId - Store sessionID - Validate (getSessionID) session ID to keep the users signed in My question is how do you store the sessionID. Is it through the App42 Storage Service method? Hopefully, my question is not to silly as I'm quite new to writing code. Your help is much appreciated.

Bitcode version of iOS SDK

Wed, 03 Feb 2016 12:13:53 +0000

I would really like to use App42 iOS SDK for Async API but it lacks bitcode.

Please, dear support, can you provide a build of framework with included bitcode? Just build it with "-fembed-bitcode" flag in XCode 7+.

Otherwise I can not archive the project, recieveing following warning:

"ld: bitcode bundle could not be generated because '/Users/admin/Desktop/Swift/Triangles/Triangles/Shephertz_App42_iOS_API.framework/Shephertz_App42_iOS_API' was built without full bitcode. All object files and libraries for bitcode must be generated from Xcode Archive or Install build for architecture arm64"
