VENPromotionsManager enables easy definition, management and control of in-app location based promotions including the following:

• Define promotion action events along with trigger locations and valid date intervals
• Fire promotions on entering a geographic region or a region created by Bluetooh LE beacons, even if the app is not yet launched or is backgrounded
• Schedule location updates on a repeating timer that runs on a background queue (optional)
• Use an included location service built on a CLLocationManager or a custom location service

Demo

Installation

You can install VENPromotionsManager in your project by using CocoaPods:

pod 'VENPromotionsManager', '~> 1.0.0'

Usage

First create one (or more) promotion(s). Promotions can be either region based (using beacons or geofencing) or location based which require periodic location lookups.

//Location Promotion
VPLLocationPromotion *locationPromotion = [[VPLLocationPromotion alloc] initWithCity:@"Cupertino"
                                                                       state:@"CA"
                                                                     country:@"United States"
                                                            uniqueIdentifier:userDefaultsKey action:^{
                                                                NSLog(@"Promotion Number %ld Fired",(long)(i+1));
                                                            }];

//Beacon based Region Promotion
NSUUID *estimoteUUID = [[NSUUID alloc] initWithUUIDString:@"B9407F30-F5F8-466E-AFF9-25556B57FE6D"];
CLBeaconRegion *doorRegion = [[CLBeaconRegion alloc] initWithProximityUUID:estimoteUUID
                                                                    identifier:@"VenmoEntrancePromotion"];

VPLRegionPromotion *regionPromotion = [[VPLRegionPromotion alloc] initWithRegion:doorRegion
                                                                  repeatInterval:2
                                                                    enterAction:^{
                                                                      //Implement code to launch promotion here
                                                                   }];

Then init the promotions manager with an array of the created promotion(s)

self.promotionsManager = [[VPLPromotionsManager alloc] initWithPromotions:@[locationPromotion, regionPromotion]
                                                   shouldRequestGPSAccess:YES];
self.promotionsManager.refreshInterval = 60 * 60; //Lookup location every 60 minutes
[self.promotionsManager startMonitoringForPromotionLocations];

In this example, the VPLPromotionsManager instance will perform a location lookup and trigger any valid location promotion every 60 minutes and will trigger any valid region promotions whenever it enters the promotion's region. Region promotions support background notifications, while location promotions do not.
