# Building
|
|
|
|
## 1. Clone
|
|
|
|
Clone the repo to a working directory
|
|
|
|
## 2. Depenencies
|
|
|
|
### tldr;
|
|
|
|
Build and configure dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make dependencies
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Dependency Details
|
|
|
|
We have a couple of dependency management tools. We us Carthage for
|
|
managing frameworks, but because some of our dependencies are not yet
|
|
framework compatible, we use Cocoapods to manage the remainder in a
|
|
static library.
|
|
|
|
2.1) [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org) is used to manage the dependencies in our static library. Pods are setup easily and are distributed via a ruby gem. Follow the simple instructions on the website to setup. After setup, run the following command from the toplevel directory of Signal-iOS to download the dependencies for Signal-iOS:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pod install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are having build issues, first make sure your pods are up to date
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pod repo update
|
|
pod install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
occasionally, CocoaPods itself will need to be updated. Do this with
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
gem update cocoapods
|
|
pod repo update
|
|
pod install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2.2) Framework dependencies are built and managed using [Carthage](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage). Our prebuilt WebRTC.framework also resides in the Carthage/Build directory.
|
|
|
|
If you don't have carthage, here are the [install instructions](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage#installing-carthage).
|
|
|
|
Once Carthage is installed, run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
// DO NOT run: `carthage update` or `carthage checkout`.
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
carthage build --platform iOS
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 3. XCode
|
|
|
|
Open the `Signal.xcworkspace` in Xcode.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
open Signal.xcworkspace
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the Signal target on the General tab, change the Team drop down to
|
|
your own. On the Capabilities tab turn off Push Notifications and Data
|
|
Protection. Only Background Modes should remain on.
|
|
|
|
Some of our build scripts, like running tests, expect your Derived
|
|
Data directory to be `$(PROJECT_DIR)/build`. In Xcode, go to `Preferences-> Locations`,
|
|
and set the "Derived Data" dropdown to "Relative" and the text field
|
|
value to "build".
|
|
|
|
Build and Run and you are ready to go!
|
|
|
|
## Known issues
|
|
|
|
Features related to push notifications are known to be not working for third-party contributors since Apple's Push Notification service pushs will only work with Open Whisper Systems production code signing certificate.
|
|
|
|
If you have any other issues, please ask on the [community forum](https://whispersystems.discoursehosting.net/).

|
|
### Building WebRTC
|
|
|
|
A prebuilt version of WebRTC.framework resides in our Carthage submodule (see above).
|
|
However, if you'd like to build it from source, see https://github.com/WhisperSystems/signal-webrtc-ios
