Installation

[!] Bitcode is supported by the upstream, but Google source code builder (GN) produces ~700Mb binary with enabled bitcode, so it's hardly possible to distribute as a framework via CocoaPods/Carthage and that's why bitcode is disabled in my build. Follow corresponding issue there: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/webrtc/issues/detail?id=5085

Make sure to disable bitcode for your project: Go to your project's settings and find the Build settings tab, check All and search for bitcode, then set it to No.

If you encounter linker errors, try to add the framework to embedded binaries section.

CocoaPods (add to Podfile):

pod "WebRTC"

Carthage (add to Cartfile):

github "Anakros/WebRTC"

Manual: just download framework from the latest release and copy it to your project

You can only use the binary release, because the whole WebRTC repository takes ~12Gb of disk space

Usage

Swift

import WebRTC

let device = UIDevice.string(for: UIDevice.deviceType())

print(device)
print(RTCInitializeSSL())

Objective-C

@import WebRTC;

NSString *device = [UIDevice stringForDeviceType:[UIDevice deviceType]];

NSLog(@"%@", device);
NSLog(@"%d", RTCInitializeSSL());
