Share to NAVER LINE from your apps.

LineKit

Share to LINE from your apps.

LineKit now support sharing text, and images friends, and groups. Sharing to timeline is also supported.

Also, an UIActivity subclass is also provided for use with UIActivityController.

Usage

LineKit provides a helper method to check if LINE app is installed on current device.

if (![Line isLineInstalled]) {
  // Prompt error
}

To share text to LINE, you can simply call:

[Line shareText:@"Hello Line!"];

To share image to LINE, you can call:

[Line shareImage:[UIImage named:@"avatar.png"]];

To add friend or official account, use:

[Line addFriend:@"hPtAUZX6w5"];

To show shop detail (usually stickers), try:

[Line showShopDetail:@"2"];

You can redirect user to App Store to download LINE app via:

[Line openLineInAppStore];

Add line:// to LSApplicationQueriesSchemes

For LineKit to properly detect LINE's installation, please add line:// to LSApplicationQueriesSchemes.

After iOS 9.0, you must declare the URL schemes you pass to this method by adding the LSApplicationQueriesSchemes key to your app's Info.plist file.

UIActivity

To use LineKit with UIActivityViewController is simple and recommended:

UIActivityViewController *controller = 
  [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:items
                                    applicationActivities:@[[[LKLineActivity alloc] init]]];

iOS 7's limitation for image sharing

Due to iOS 7 limitation, custom UIPasteboard objects couldn't be shared across apps without the same namespace (i.e. jp.naver.*)

So for iOS 7, general UIPasteboard object is used for image sharing. Be careful that users might lose paste data.

Sample Project

The Xcode project under LKExample folder is a sample app to demonstrate the usages of LineKit.

Installation

We recommend you to install via CocoaPods.

Thanks

linekit's Issues

Does not work after LINE v5.2.0

Using LineKit 1.4.1 to share image, the function works well until LINE has been updated to v5.2.0.

The sharing line is simple:

[Line shareImage:selectedImage]; 

where selectedImage is a UIImage. LINE prompts:

This version of LINE does not support this type of URL.

Please help.

Callback after LINE sharing complete / failed / cancelled ?

Does LineKit have delegate to let user know sharing is complete / failed / cancelled ?

Cannot add friend by Line ID

Hi,

I try to add friend by using Line ID when call method it will open Line app and always show message _"User not found."_

example of code, friend id is "nyan"

[Line addFriend:@"nyan"];

From your example you use _hPtAUZX6w5_ as Line ID, my question is how to get or generate this hash string ?

Thank you for your answer,
nonth

UIActivity support?

It will be awesome if LineKit got a UIActivity subclass, thus user can simply choose "Share to LINE" from a UIActivityViewController.

Share text & image simultaneously

This is not really an 'issue' as such but wondering if there's a way to share an image and text at the same time. I can't seem to find a solution so far.

Cheers

I transfer the project to create a new file, but the error output kit (XCode 6.3)

How to make it work

update your info.plist:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>line</string>
</array>

My Line app is 3.9.0, but when I share image using [Line shareImage:photo]. It tell me this error "This version of Line does not support this type of url"

Unable to connect

What I got when click share: Update to the latest version of LINE or recheck the URL.
