Notice 🚀

We're starting fresh under an official org. If you were using the previous npm package capacitor-intercom, please update your package.json to @capacitor-community/intercom. Check out changelog for more info.

Breaking changes from Capacitor v2 to v3

• UserUpdateOptions option type becomes IntercomUserUpdateOptions
• IntercomPlugin configuration key becomes Intercom
• android-apiKey config key becomes androidApiKey
• android-appId config key becomes androidAppId
• ios-apiKey config key becomes iosApiKey
• ios-appId config key becomes iosAppId
• Switch from CAPBridge to ApplicationDelegateProxy in application events
• remove the whole onCreate initialization from your app's MainActivity.java

 public class MainActivity extends BridgeActivity {
-    @Override
-    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
-        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
-
-        // Initializes the Bridge
-        this.init(savedInstanceState, new ArrayList<Class<? extends Plugin>>() {{
-            // Additional plugins you've installed go here
-            add(IntercomPlugin.class);
-        }});
-    }
 }

• cd my-cap-app
• npm install —-save @capacitor-community/intercom
• mkdir www && touch www/index.html
• npx cap add ios
• add intercom keys to capacitor's configuration file

{
 …
  "plugins": {
   "Intercom": {
      "iosApiKey": "ios_sdk-xxx",
      "iosAppId": "yyy"
    }
  }
…
}

• npx cap open ios
• sign your app at xcode (general tab)

Tip: every time you change a native code you may need to clean up the cache (Product > Clean build folder) and then run the app again.

      "androidApiKey": "android_sdk-xxx",
      "androidAppId": "yyy"
    }
  }
…
}

• npx cap open android

Now you should be set to go. Try to run your client using ionic cap run android --livereload.
