Integrating Appfigurate Library into watchOS app extensions
Last updated
watchOS apps can be developed in both Swift and Objective-C.
Appfigurate Library works in most types of watchOS app extensions.
You must perform the following before starting watchOS app extension integration:
of Appfigurate Library.
In Xcode, tap on your watchOS app extension target.
Tap the General tab. Tap the + button under the Frameworks, Libraries section.
Select AppfigurateLibrary package.
Share the watchOS app's subclass with the watchOS app extension.
Open your subclass (e.g. Configuration.swift/m file) into the Xcode editor.
In the Target Membership inspection pane tick on your watchOS app extension target.
Tap on your watchOS app extension target.
Tap the Signing & Capabilities tabs. Add a Keychain Sharing capability with a Keychain Groups value that will be common across the watchOS app and watchOS app extension.
We recommend you have a .shared suffix on your Keychain Groups value.
Tap on your watchOS app target. Tap Signing & Capabilities tabs.
Add a Keychain Sharing capability with the same Keychain Groups value you entered for the iOS app extension above.
In your watchOS app's Info.plist file (right click, Open As ‣ Source Code) include the APLKeychainAccessGroup key replacing the value nz.co.electricbolt.appfigurateexample.shared with your Keychain Sharing's Keychain Groups value.
Info.plistexample
If the APLKeychainAccessGroup key is not defined, then keychain access group functionality is not used. Do not specify an empty or otherwise invalid APLKeychainAccessGroup value.
watchOS app extensions automatically use the Info.plist file from the containing watchOS app. You do not need to modify the watchOS app extension's Info.plist file.
