Analytics-Swift Localytics

Add Localytics Device Mode support to your applications via this plugin for Analytics-Swift

⚠️ Github Issues disabled in this repository ⚠️

Please direct all issues, bug reports, and feature enhancements to friends@segment.com so they can be resolved as efficiently as possible.

Adding the dependency

Note: the Localytics library itself will be installed as an additional dependency.

via Xcode

In the Xcode File menu, click Add Packages. You'll see a dialog where you can search for Swift packages. In the search field, enter the URL for this repo:

https://github.com/segment-integrations/analytics-swift-localytics

You'll then have the option to pin to a version, or specific branch, as well as which project in your workspace to add it to. Once you've made your selections, click the Add Package button.

via Package.swift

Open your Package.swift file and add the following do your the dependencies section:

.package(
            name: "Segment",
            url: "https://github.com/segment-integrations/analytics-swift-localytics.git",
            from: "1.0.0"
        ),

Using the Plugin in your App

Open the file where you setup and configure the Analytics-Swift library. Add this plugin to the list of imports.

import Segment
import SegmentLocalytics // <-- Add this line

Just under your Analytics-Swift library setup, call analytics.add(plugin: ...) to add an instance of the plugin to the Analytics timeline.

let analytics = Analytics(configuration: Configuration(writeKey: "<YOUR WRITE KEY>")
                    .flushAt(3)
                    .trackApplicationLifecycleEvents(true))
analytics.add(plugin: LocalyticsDestination())

Your events will now be given Localytics session data and start flowing to Localytics via Device Mode.

This template is resolved around ExampleDestination (to be replaced by you).

What does the template provide

Data class for holding settings

To standardize fetching and using settings in your destination, we recommend using a Coable class to store your destination settings. If marked Codable, it will enable you to retrieve your destination settings in a strongly typed construct.

Settings-related functions

We provide APIs to update your destination settings in update(settings:type:). UpdateType.initial lets you know if this is the intial or subsequent fetch.

Settings.isDestinationEnabled(key: String)

  • check if your destination is enabled

Settings.integrationSettings(forKey: String)

  • retrieve a typed destination object

Sample implementation for common destination functions

We have templated common destinations functions like track, identify, screen, group, alias that you should modify to fit your vendor SDK implementation. Although these functions do not need to return the ending payload, its good practice to do so (for unit testing purposes).

Transforming events

Often times, destinations need to transform events (eg: change names, modify properties/traits etc.). We have templated an example of transformation in the track(event:) example. we recommend you use this approach to perform any such transformations. This will make your code more legible plus improve code quality.

Testing functions for primary functions (to be expanded)

We have provided a very bare minimum template for testing the primary destination APIs. We recommend to use this as a starter and build upon it to get test coverage of most scenarios.
