Library Installation
====================
Obtaining the library
---------------------
The ownCloud iOS library may be obtained from the following Github repository:
`git@github.com:owncloud/ios-library.git
<mailto:git@github.com:owncloud/ios-library.git>`_
Once obtained, this code should be compiled with Xcode 6. The Github
repository not only contains the library, ownCloud iOS library, but also
contains a sample project, OCLibraryExample, which will assist in learning how
to use the library.
Add the library to a project
----------------------------
There are two methods to add this library to a project.
* Reference the headers and library binary file (``.a``) directly.
* Include the library as a subproject.
Which method to choose depends on user preference as well as whether the source
code and project file of the static library are available.
Reference headers and library binary files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Follow these steps if this is the desired method.
1. Compile the ownCloud iOS library and run the project. A ``libownCloudiOS.a``
file will be generated.
The following files are required:
**Library file**
* ``libownCloudiOS.a`` (Library)
**Library Classes**
* ``OCCommunication.h`` (Accessors) Import in the communication class
* ``OCErrorMsg.h`` (Error Messages) Import in the communication class
* ``OCFileDto.h`` and ``OCFileDto.m`` (File/Folder object) Import when using
* ``readFolder`` and ``readFile`` methods
* ``OCFrameworkConstants.h`` (Customize constants)
2. Add the library file to the project. From the “Build Phases” tab, scroll
to “Link binary files” and select the + to add a library. Select the library
file.

3. Add the path of the library header files. Under the “Build Settings” tab,
select the target library and add the path in the “Header Search Paths” field.

4. Remaining in the “Build Setting” tab, add the flag ``-Obj-C`` under the
“Other Linker Flags” option.

At this stage, the library is included on your project and you can start
communicating with the ownCloud server.
Include the library as a subproject
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Follow these steps if this is the desired method.
5. Add the file ``ownCloud iOS library.xcodeproj`` to the project via drag and
drop.
|100000000000030C000001E61DFDBF76_png|
6. Within the project, navigate to the “Build Phases” tab. Under the “Target
Dependencies” section, select the + and choose the library target.
|100000000000030C000001E7A7A01884_png|
7. Link the library file to the project target. Under the “Build Phases” tab,
select the + under the “Link Binary with Libraries” section and select the
library file.
|100000000000030C000001E8AB4C3306_png|
8. Add the flag ``-Obj-C`` to “Other Linker Flags” under the project target on
the “Build Settings” tab.
|100000000000030C000001ECB85120C2_png|
9. Finally add the path of the library headers. Under the “Build Settings”
tab, add the path under the “Header Search Paths” option.
