This section describes API or behavioral changes when upgrading from Voice iOS 2.x to Voice iOS 3.x. Each section provides code snippets to assist in transitioning to the new API.
- Making a Call
- TVOCallInvite Changes
- Specifying a Media Region
- TVOConnectOptions & TVOAcceptOptions
- Media Establishment & Connectivity
- CallKit
- Microphone Permission
In Voice iOS 3.x, the API to make a call has changed from [TwilioVoice call:params:delegate:]
to [TwilioVoice connectWithAccessToken:delegate]
or [TwilioVoice connectWithOptions:delegate:]
.
call = TwilioVoice.connect(with: connectOptions, delegate: self)
In Voice iOS 3.x, the notificationError:
delegate method is removed from the TVONotificationDelegate
protocol and the [TwilioVoice handleNotification:]
method no longer raises errors via this method if an invalid notification is provided, instead a BOOL
value is returned when [TwilioVoice handleNotification:]
is called. The returned value is YES
when the provided data resulted in a TVOCallInvite
or TVOCancelledCallInvite
received in the TVONotificationDelegate
methods. If NO
is returned it means the data provided was not a Twilio Voice push notification.
func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didReceiveIncomingPushWith payload: PKPushPayload, forType type: PKPushType) {
if (!TwilioVoice.handleNotification(payload.dictionaryPayload, delegate: self)) {
// The push notification was not a Twilio Voice push notification.
}
}
// MARK: TVONotificationDelegate
func callInviteReceived(_ callInvite: TVOCallInvite) {
// Show notification to answer or reject call
}
func cancelledCallInviteReceived(_ cancelledCallInvite: TVOCancelledCallInvite) {
// Hide notification
}
The TVOCallInvite
has an accept()
and reject()
method. TVOCallInviteState
has been removed from the TVOCallInvite
in favor of distinguishing between call invites and call invite cancellations with discrete stateless objects. While the TVOCancelledCallInvite
simply provides the to
, from
, and callSid
fields also available in the TVOCallInvite
. The property callSid
can be used to associate a TVOCallInvite
with a TVOCancelledCallInvite
.
In Voice iOS 2.x passing a cancel
notification into [TwilioVoice handleNotification:delegate:]
would not raise a callback in the following two cases:
- This callee accepted the call
- This callee rejected the call
However, in Voice iOS 3.x passing a cancel
notification payload into [TwilioVoice handleNotification:delegate:]
will always result in a callback. A callback is raised whenever a valid notification is provided to [TwilioVoice handleNotification:delegate:]
.
Note that Twilio will send a cancel
notification to every registered device of the identity that accepts or rejects a call, even the device that accepted or rejected the call.
Previously, a media region could be specified via [TwilioVoice setRegion:]
. Now this configuration can be provided as part of TVOConnectOptions
or TVOAcceptOptions
as shown below:
let connectOptions: TVOConnectOptions = TVOConnectOptions(accessToken: accessToken) { (builder) in
builder.region = region
}
let acceptOptions: TVOAcceptOptions = TVOAcceptOptions(callInvite: callInvite!) { (builder) in
builder.region = region
}
To support configurability upon making or accepting a call, new classes have been added. Create a TVOConnectOptions
object and make configurations via the TVOConnectOptionsBuilder
in the block
. Once TVOConnectOptions
is created it can be provided when connecting a Call as shown below:
let options: TVOConnectOptions = TVOConnectOptions(accessToken: accessToken) { (builder) in
builder.params = params
}
call = TwilioVoice.connect(with: options, delegate: self)
A TVOCallInvite
can also be accepted using TVOAcceptOptions
as shown below:
let options: TVOAcceptOptions = TVOAcceptOptions(callInvite: callInvite!) { (builder) in
builder.uuid = callInvite.uuid
}
call = callInvite.accept(with: options, delegate: self)
The Voice iOS 3.x SDK uses WebRTC. The exchange of real-time media requires the use of Interactive Connectivity Establishment(ICE) to establish a media connection between the client and the media server. In some network environments where network access is restricted it may be necessary to provide ICE servers to establish a media connection. We reccomend using the Network Traversal Service (NTS) to obtain ICE servers. ICE servers can be provided when making or accepting a call by passing them into TVOConnectOptions
or TVOAcceptOptions
in the following way:
var iceServers: Array<TVOIceServer> = Array()
let iceServer1: TVOIceServer = TVOIceServer(urlString: "stun:global.stun.twilio.com:3478?transport=udp",
username: "",
password: "")
iceServers.append(iceServer1)
let iceServer2: TVOIceServer = TVOIceServer(urlString: "turn:global.turn.twilio.com:3478?transport=udp",
username: "TURN_USERNAME",
password: "TURN_PASSWORD")
iceServers.append(iceServer2)
let iceOptions: TVOIceOptions = TVOIceOptions { (builder) in
builder.servers = iceServers
}
// Specify ICE options in the builder
let connectOptions: TVOConnectOptions = TVOConnectOptions(accessToken: accessToken) { (builder) in
builder.iceOptions = iceOptions
}
let acceptOptions: TVOAcceptOptions = TVOAcceptOptions(callInvite: callInvite!) { (builder) in
builder.iceOptions = iceOptions
}
The Voice iOS 3.x SDK deprecates the CallKitIntegration
category from TwilioVoice
in favor of a new property called TVODefaultAudioDevice.enabled
. This property provides developers with a mechanism to enable or disable the activation of the audio device prior to connecting to a Call or to stop or start the audio device while you are already connected to a Call. A Call can now be connected without activating the audio device by setting TVODefaultAudioDevice.enabled
to NO
and can be enabled during the lifecycle of the Call by setting TVODefaultAudioDevice.enabled
to YES
. The default value is YES
. This API change was made to ensure full compatibility with CallKit as well as supporting other use cases where developers may need to disable the audio device during a call.
An example of managing the TVODefaultAudioDevice
while connecting a CallKit Call:
var audioDevice: TVODefaultAudioDevice = TVODefaultAudioDevice()
func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXStartCallAction) {
audioDevice.isEnabled = false
audioDevice.block();
self.performVoiceCall(uuid: action.callUUID, client: "") { (success) in
if (success) {
provider.reportOutgoingCall(with: action.callUUID, connectedAt: Date())
action.fulfill()
} else {
action.fail()
}
}
}
func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, didActivate audioSession: AVAudioSession) {
audioDevice.isEnabled = true
}
func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXAnswerCallAction) {
audioDevice.isEnabled = false
audioDevice.block();
self.performAnswerVoiceCall(uuid: action.callUUID) { (success) in
if (success) {
action.fulfill()
} else {
action.fail()
}
}
action.fulfill()
}
func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXEndCallAction) {
// Disconnect or reject the call
audioDevice.isEnabled = true
action.fulfill()
}
See CallKit Example for the complete implementation.
Unlike Voice iOS 2.x SDKs where microphone permission is not optional in Voice 3.x SDKs, the call will connect even when the microphone permission is denied or disabled by the user, and the SDK will play the remote audio. To ensure the microphone permission is enabled prior to making or accepting a call you can add the following to request the permission beforehand:
func makeCall() {
// User's microphone option
let microphoneEnabled: Bool = true
if (microphoneEnabled) {
self.checkRecordPermission { (permissionGranted) in
if (!permissionGranted) {
// The user might want to revisit the Privacy settings.
} else {
// Permission granted. Continue to make call.
}
}
} else {
// Continue to make call without microphone.
}
}
func checkRecordPermission(completion: @escaping (_ permissionGranted: Bool) -> Void) {
let permissionStatus: AVAudioSessionRecordPermission = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().recordPermission()
switch permissionStatus {
case AVAudioSessionRecordPermission.granted:
// Record permission already granted.
completion(true)
break
case AVAudioSessionRecordPermission.denied:
// Record permission denied.
completion(false)
break
case AVAudioSessionRecordPermission.undetermined:
// Requesting record permission.
// Optional: pop up app dialog to let the users know if they want to request.
AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().requestRecordPermission({ (granted) in
completion(granted)
})
break
default:
completion(false)
break
}
}
