Getting Started
TPStreamsSDK is a versatile iOS native SDK with support for both DRM (FairPlay) and non-DRM content.
Requirements
Before integrating TPStreamsSDK into your iOS application, ensure that your project meets the following requirement:
- Minimum Deployment Version: iOS 11.4 or later
- Swift: Version 5.5 or later
Integration using Swift Package Manager (SPM)
To add TPStreamsSDK to your Xcode project using Swift Package Manager, follow these steps:
- Select File > Add Packages in Xcode.
- In the search bar, enter the following URL:
https://github.com/testpress/iOSPlayerSDK
. - Select 'iOSPlayerSDK' from the search results. Click Add package button.
Once the package is added, you can start using TPStreamsSDK in your iOS application.
Initializing TPStreamsSDK
In the application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:)
method in your AppDelegate, call TPStreamsSDK.initialize(for: Provider.testpress, withOrgCode:)
to initialize the SDK with your organization code.
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
TPStreamsSDK.initialize(for: Provider.testpress, withOrgCode: "YOUR_SUBDOMAIM")
return true
}
}
Please note that the above code assumes you are using SwiftUI for your application. If you are using a different app architecture, you may need to adapt the integration steps accordingly.
Playing a Video with TPStreamsSDK
SwiftUI Integration
- Instantiate a TPAVPlayer by providing the appropriate assetID and accessToken.
- Embed the TPStreamPlayerView in your SwiftUI view.
struct ContentView: View {
let player = TPAVPlayer(assetID: "YOUR_VIDEO_ID", accessToken: "VIDEO_ACCESS_TOKEN")
var body: some View {
VStack {
TPStreamPlayerView(player: player)
.frame(height: 240)
Spacer()
}
}
}
UIKit Integration
- Instantiate a TPAVPlayer with the relevant assetID and accessToken.
- Create an AVPlayerViewController and assign the previously created TPAVPlayer to the player attribute.
- Add the AVPlayerViewController.view to the view hierarchy. This will display the video player within the specified playerContainer view.
class ViewController: UIViewController {
@IBOutlet weak var playerContainer: UIView!
var playerViewController: AVPlayerViewController?
var player: TPAVPlayer?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.setupPlayerView()
}
func setupPlayerView(){
player = TPAVPlayer(assetID: "YOUR_ASSET_ID", accessToken: "VIDEO_ACCESS_TOKEN")
playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController()
playerViewController?.player = player
addChild(playerViewController!)
playerContainer.addSubview(playerViewController!.view)
playerViewController!.view.frame = playerContainer.bounds
}
}
TPAVPlayer is a wrapper class of AVPlayer that provides built-in support for playing our videos without requiring additional effort. It also supports FairPlay streaming for DRM-protected content.
Since TPAVPlayer is a wrapper class of AVPlayer, you can also use the TPAVPlayer with native iOS player to play Testpress Videos.
