URX iOS SDK
The URX iOS SDK is a wrapper for URX's Deep Link Search API.
To receive your API key, please visit dashboard.urx.com.
Setup:
###Step 1: Add the URXSearch Framework to your Project:
First, clone this repository. Then, drag and drop the URXSearch.framework
into the "Frameworks" directory of your project.
###Step 2: Linking to URXSearch Binaries and Headers:
Make sure that the URXSearch.framework
has been added to your project's binary. In your project settings, select your Target
and select the Build Phases
tab. In the Link Binary With Libraries
phase you should see URXSearch.framework
. If not, hit the + button and select it from the list of options.
###Step 3: Set up the API Key:
Before you can use the SDK, you must provide your URX API Key. To do this, add a String
row to your Info.plist file with URX API Key
as the key and your API key as the value. Contact [email protected] for an API key if you don't already have one.
###Step 4: Set -ObjC linker flag: In your project's Build Settings, make sure to add -ObjC in the "Other Linker Flags" setting.
Basic Usage:
Data from Search Results
#import <URXSearch/URXTerm.h>
#import <URXSearch/URXSearchResult.h>
...
[[URXTerm termWithKeywords:@"ellie goulding"] searchAsynchronouslyWithSuccessHandler:^(URXSearchResponse *response) {
// SEARCH SUCCESS HANDLER
URXSearchResult *result = response.results[0];
// The Search Result Content's Title
NSLog(@"%@", result.name);
// The Search Result Content's image url
NSLog(@"%@", result.imageUrl);
// The Search Result Content's longer text description
NSLog(@"%@", result.descriptionText);
// The Search Result Content's call to action text (ie. "Buy Tickets")
NSLog(@"%@", result.callToActionText);
// The Search Result Content's app name
NSLog(@"%@", result.appName);
} andFailureHandler:^(URXAPIError *error) {

...
[[URXTerm termWithKeywords:@"ellie goulding"] searchAsynchronouslyWithSuccessHandler:^(URXSearchResponse *response) {
// SEARCH SUCCESS HANDLER
// Note: Integrations usually display the search result for the user
// and set click handler to trigger resolving user to destination.
// Resolve to the deeplink only if the app is installed,
// otherwise fallback to the app store.
[response.results[0] resolveAsynchronouslyWithAppStoreFallbackAndFailureHandler:^(URXAPIError *error) {
NSLog(@"%@", error.errorMessage);
}];
} andFailureHandler:^(URXAPIError *error) {
// SEARCH FAILURE HANDLER
NSLog(@"%@", error.errorMessage);
