Setup

Requirements

Xcode 13+
Swift 5.5+
iOS 14.0+

Intell the latest version of Xcode from the App Store or Apple Developer Download website. Also, we assert you have the Homebrew package manager.

This guide may not suit your machine and actually setup procedure may change in the future. Please file the issue or Pull Request if there are any problems.

CocoaPods

The app use CocoaPods and CocoaPods-Keys. Ruby Gems are managed through Bundler. The M1 Mac needs virtual ruby env to workaround compatibility issues.

Intel Mac

gem install bundler
bundle install

M1 Mac

# install the rbenv
brew install rbenv
which ruby
# > /usr/bin/ruby
echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.zprofile
source ~/.zprofile
which ruby
# > /Users/mainasuk/.rbenv/shims/ruby

# select ruby
rbenv install --list
# here we use the latest 3.0.x version
rbenv install 3.0.3
rbenv global 3.0.3
ruby --version
# > ruby 3.0.3p157 (2021-11-24 revision 3fb7d2cadc) [arm64-darwin21]

gem install bundler
bundle install

Bootstrap

# make a clean build
bundle install
bundle exec pod clean

# make install
bundle exec pod install --repo-update

# open workspace
open Mastodon.xcworkspace

The CocoaPods-Key plugin will request the push notification endpoint. You can fufill the empty string and set it later. To setup the push notification. Please check section Push Notification below.

The app requires the App Group capability. To make sure it works for your developer membership. Please check AppSecret.swift file and set another unique groupID and update App Group settings.

Push Notification (Optional)

The app is compatible with toot-relay APNs. You can set your push notification endpoint via Cocoapod-Keys. There are two endpoints:

notification_endpoint: for RELEASE usage
notification_endpoint_debug: for DEBUG usage

Please check the Establishing a Certificate-Based Connection to APNs document to generate the certificate and exports the p12 file.

Note: Please check and set the notification.Topic to the app BundleID in toot-relay.go. The server needs use a reverse proxy to port this relay on 443 port with valid domain and HTTPS certificate.
