Classes & Protocol

You need to use PeerConnectivity.swift file that manages everything and contains all required methods. DataSync.swfit protocol contains DataSyncDelegate that needs to be implemented in class to receive data. It contains 4 methods that are:

    func sync(dataDidReceive: Any, ofType: Type, at: Date)

Method is called when data is received on other device

    func update(devices: [PeerDevice], at: Date)

Method is called when any device is added / lost

    func lost(device: PeerDevice, at: Date)

Method is called when any device is lost. This method is optional

    func acknowledge(from: PeerDevice, at: Date, forDataID: Any)

Method is called when data is received and sender will be acknowledged. This method is optional

How to start

  1. Initialize service type by using:
PeerConnectivity.instance.service = "sample-service"
  1. Setup Multipeer Connectivity
PeerConnectivity.instance.setup(fromViewController: self, withDelegate: self)
  1. Connect Users

a. Individually

PeerConnectivity.instance.connect(forUser: .Peer)
PeerConnectivity.instance.connect(forUser: .Host)

b. Simultaneously

PeerConnectivity.instance.autoConnect()
  1. To send data to connected peers
func send(data: Any, ofType: Type, withID: Any)

You can send data of any type whether its primitive or custom model that is designed or encapsulated in class and 'ofType' that can contain values defined in Type.swift enum. 'withID' can be used to validated at the time of acknowledgement.
