CloudKitGDPR
Swift framework for allowing users to manage data stored in iCloud. This project is based on the sample code provided by Apple.
Requirements
- iOS 8.0+ / macOS 10.10+ / tvOS 9.0+ / watchOS 3.0+
- Xcode 10.2+
- Swift 5.0+
Installation
Carthage
Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.
You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:
$ brew update
$ brew install carthage
To integrate CloudKitGDPR into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile
:
github "arturgrigor/CloudKitGDPR" ~> 2.1
Run carthage update
to build the framework and drag the built CloudKitGDPR.framework
into your Xcode project.
❗️ Please note that since version 1.2 this is a Static Framework and it does not need to be included in the carthage copy-frameworks Build Phase. For more information please consult the Build static frameworks to speed up your app’s launch times section.
CocoaPods
CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:
$ gem install cocoapods
CocoaPods 1.1.0+ is required.
To integrate CloudKitGDPR into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile
:
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '10.0'
use_frameworks!
target '<Your Target Name>' do
pod 'CloudKitGDPR', '~> 2.1'
end
Then, run the following command:
$ pod install
Swift Package Manager
The Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift
compiler. It is in early development, but CloudKitGDPR does support its use on supported platforms.
Once you have your Swift package set up, adding CloudKitGDPR as a dependency is as easy as adding it to the dependencies
value of your Package.swift
.
dependencies: [
.Package(url: "https://github.com/arturgrigor/CloudKitGDPR.git", majorVersion: 2)
]
Usage
Create the instance
import CloudKitGDPR
let defaultContainer = CKContainer.default()
let documents = CKContainer(identifier: "iCloud.com.example.myexampleapp.documents")
let settings = CKContainer(identifier: "iCloud.com.example.myexampleapp.settings")
let metadata: GDPR.RecordTypesByContainer = [
defaultContainer: ["log", "verboseLog"],
documents: ["textDocument", "spreadsheet"],
settings: ["preference", "profile"]
]
let maping: GDPR.ContainerNameMapping = [
defaultContainer: "default",
documents: "docs",
settings: "settings"
]
let gdpr = GDPR(metadata: metadata, containerNameMapping: maping)
Export Data
Export all user's private data as JSON files.
gdpr.exportData(usingTransformer: JSONDataTransformer.default) { result in
switch result {
case .failure(let error):
print("GDPR export data error: \(error)")
case .success(let value):
print("User's private data: \(value)")
}
}
Supported transformers
ZeroDataTransformer
: This will give you the CloudKit records directly without any other transformation.CSVDataTransformer
: This will give you a list of CSV files.JSONDataTransformer
: This will give you a list of JSON files.
Delete All Data
gdpr.deleteData { result in
switch result {
case .failure(let error):
print("GDPR delete data error: \(error)")
case .success(_):
// TODO: Maybe cleanup the local data too
print("All user's private data deleted.")
}
}
Advanced Usage
iOS
Export data as JSON files in a ZIP archive using the ZIPFoundation framework.
import CloudKitGDPR
import ZIPFoundation
lazy var applicationCachesDirectory: URL = {
let urls = FileManager.default.urls(for: .cachesDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)
return urls[urls.count-1]
}()
gdpr.exportData(usingTransformer: JSONDataTransformer.default) { result in
switch result {
case .failure(let error):
print("GDPR export data error: \(error)")
case .success(let value):
DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background).async {
let url = self.applicationCachesDirectory.appendingPathComponent("data.zip")
let archive = Archive(url: url, accessMode: .create)
for (fileName, csvContents) in value {
let data = Data(bytes: Array(csvContents.utf8))
try? archive?.addEntry(with: fileName, type: .file, uncompressedSize: UInt32(data.count), provider: { data[$0..<$0+$1] })
}
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let viewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [url], applicationActivities: [])
viewController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = self.exportDataCell
viewController.completionWithItemsHandler = { _, _, _, _ in
try? FileManager.default.removeItem(at: url)
}
self.present(viewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
}
}
Notes
iOS Demo Prerequisites
- Change the identifier for the
defaultContainer
in theGDPR+App.swift
file to one that's accessible to you. - Replace the
"SomeRecordType"
record type in the same file with one that's actually used in that container. - Use the same container identifier for the
com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers
key in theDemo.entitlements
file.
