Ready to use on iOS 11+. Supports iOS, tvOS. Working with UIKit and SwiftUI.
In Xcode go to Project -> Your Project Name -> Package Dependencies -> Tap Plus. Insert url:
https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit
Next, choose the permissions that you need. But don't add all of them, because apple will reject app.
Or adding it to the dependencies of your Package.swift:
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit", .upToNextMajor(from: "10.0.1"))
]and choose valid targets.
This is an outdated way. I advise you to use SPM. However, I will continue to support Cocoapods for some time.
Cocoapods Installation
CocoaPods is a dependency manager. For usage and installation instructions, visit their website. To integrate using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:
pod 'PermissionsKit/NotificationPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'Due to Apple's new policy regarding permission access you need to specifically define what kind of permissions you want to access using subspecs.
pod 'PermissionsKit/CameraPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/ContactsPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/CalendarPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/PhotoLibraryPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/NotificationPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/MicrophonePermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/RemindersPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'

pod 'PermissionsKit/SiriPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'
pod 'PermissionsKit/HealthPermission', :git => 'https://github.com/sparrowcode/PermissionsKit'If put all code to one package and compile it, Apple Review Team will see a lot of calls to permissions API and ask you provide reason why you really need it permissions. Modules allow compile only really using code parts. Just select only which you need.
Warning
Import only the permissions you really need.
import PermissionsKit
import NotificationPermission
Permission.notification.request {
}import PermissionsKit
import NotificationPermission
let authorized = Permission.notification.authorizedWarning
For FaceID permission no way detect if request .authorized or .notDetermined accurate. Status .denied detect well. For now for both states return .notDetermined.
You need to add some strings to the Info.plist file with descriptions per Apple's requirements. You can get a plist of keys for permissions as follows:
let key = Permission.bluetooth.usageDescriptionKeyNote
Do not use the description as the name of the key. Xcode can't build this.
If you use xliff localization export, keys will be create automatically. If you prefer do the localization file manually, you need to create InfoPlist.strings, select languages on the right side menu and add keys as keys in plist-file. See:
"NSCameraUsageDescription" = "Here description of usage camera";
If you use a PermissionsKit, add your app via Pull Request.
