FireworkVideoUI

An extension library meant to provide easier interfaces for the FireworkVideoSDK.

Setup Prerequisites

Proceed with FireworkVideo integration steps before integrating the extensions library.

FireworkVideo SDK Documentation

This extension library is intended to be used alongside FireworkVideoSDK. Read over the FireworkVideo SDK documentation to ensure proper FireworkVideoSDK integration.

Installation

Swift Package Manager - RECOMMENDED

In your Xcode project, select File > Add Packages... and enter the following URL:

https://github.com/loopsocial/firework_ios_sdk_ui_extensions/

Copy & Paste

Most of the extensions are standalone and can be simply copied and pasted into your codebase.

Getting Started

It is recommended to checkout the Example project to get a look at what can be accomplished with these extensions.

VideoFeedView

The VideoFeedView provides a UIView wrapper of the FireworkVideoSDK.VideoFeedViewController. This eliminates the need to manage a child UIViewController. You can customize the VideoFeedView just like the VideoFeedViewController.

However, this solution makes a lot of assumptions about the view hiearchy that may lead to unusual behavior for highly customized view setups. Additionally, when the view is nested in a UIScrollView type it will need to observe the bounds in order to properly manage the underlying VideoFeedViewController.

Checkout the example project to see examples of how to use the VideoFeedView in both a UITableView and a UICollectionView.

App-level language setting

import FireworkVideoUI
AppLanguageManager.shared.changeAppLanguage("ar") // such as ar, ar-JO, en, etc.

Generally, the changeAppLanguage API should be called in the following cases:

  1. The App is launched(e.g. in the application(:, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) -> Bool method).
  2. Users change the app language manually.
  3. Other cases that change app language.

After calling changeAppLanguage API, we need to recreate FireworkVideo SDK components to update the UI. Such as:

  • Recreate video feed and story block
  • Stop floating player
