Nextcloud Talk iOS app

Video & audio calls and chat through Nextcloud on iOS

Nextcloud Talk is a fully on-premises audio/video and chat communication service. It features web and mobile apps and is designed to offer the highest degree of security while being easy to use.

Nextcloud Talk lowers the barrier for communication and lets your team connect any time, any where, on any device, with each other, customers or partners.

Prerequisites

• Nextcloud server version 14 or higher (that fulfills ATS requirements).
• Nextcloud Talk version 4.0 or higher.
• CocoaPods

Development setup

Clone this repository and download the WebRTC library

$ pod install

$ git submodule update --init

$ open NextcloudTalk.xcworkspace

Pull Requests will be checked with SwiftLint. We strongly encourage the installation of SwiftLint to detect issues as early as possible.

Run the project

Depending on how you try to run the project, you'll notice that it's not running "as-is". There are a few steps to make it work with your developer account:

1. The project contains multiple targets (currently NextcloudTalk, ShareExtension and NotificationServiceExtension). The bundle ids of those targets start with com.nextcloud.Talk which can't be used outside of Nextcloud GmbH. To run the project, change all bundle ids to something that's allowed for your developer account: com.<yourname>.Talk.
2. To communicate between the main app and its extensions, app groups are used. The group identifier for NextcloudTalk is set to group.com.nextcloud.Talk, with the same restriction as above. Change the group identifier of all targets to group.com.<yourname>.Talk.
3. Open the file NCAppBranding.m (can be found in XCode under NextcloudTalk -> Settings) and change bundleIdentifier and groupIdentifier to the same values you used in 1. and 2.
4. Run the project
