Objective-C Library for Muslim Prayer Times

OCPrayerTimes is an Objective-C library for calculating Muslim Prayer Times. Modified version of the original source code written by Hamid Zarrabi-Zadeh and Hussain Ali from PrayTimes.org. The source code was modified by Sumardi Shukor for taking advantage of modern Objective-C language such as ARC, object literals, etc.

Requirements

OCPrayerTimes 0.1.0 and higher requires Xcode 5, targeting either iOS 6.0 and above, or Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion (64-bit with modern Cocoa runtime) and above.

The following Cocoa frameworks must be linked into the application target for proper compilation:

• CoreLocation.framework

Installation

Podfile

platform :osx, '10.8'
pod 'OCPrayerTimes', '~> 0.1.0'

Then run pod install.

Manual

Just add PrayTime.h and PrayTime.m to your Xcode project.

Examples

Depending on how you configure your project you may need to #import either <OCPrayerTimes/PrayTime.h> or "PrayTime.h".

Getting prayer times for a given longitude and latitude

PrayTime *prayerTime = [[PrayTime alloc] initWithJuristic:JuristicMethodShafii
                                           andCalculation:CalculationMethodMWL];
NSMutableArray *prayerTimes = [prayerTime prayerTimesDate:[NSDate date]
                                                 latitude:3.1667
                                                longitude:101.7000
                                              andTimezone:[prayerTime getTimeZone]];
NSLog(@"%@", prayerTimes);

Getting prayer times from current user location

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    self.locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
    self.locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
    self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters;
    self.locationManager.delegate = self;

    [self.locationManager startUpdatingLocation];

    prayTime = [[PrayTime alloc] initWithJuristic:JuristicMethodShafii
                                   andCalculation:CalculationMethodMWL];
    [prayTime setTimeFormat:TimeFormat12Hour];
}

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations
{
    CLLocation *location = [locations lastObject];

    praytime = [prayTime prayerTimesFromLocation:location
                                         forDate:[NSDate date]];
}
