Intelligent Media Services:Download and integrate the SDK

Automatic integration using Maven (recommended)

1. In the root directory of your project, open the settings.gradle file. Add the Maven repository for the ARTC SDK to the dependencyResolutionManagement/repositories field.

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        // Add the Maven repository for the ARTC SDK.
        maven { url 'https://maven.aliyun.com/repository/google' }
        maven { url 'https://maven.aliyun.com/repository/public' }
    }
}

Note: If you use a version of the Android Gradle Plugin earlier than 7.1.0, you may not find the corresponding field in the settings.gradle file. For more information, see Android Gradle Plugin 7.1. In this case, use the following alternative solution:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        // Add the Maven repository for the ARTC SDK.
        maven { url 'https://maven.aliyun.com/repository/google' }
        maven { url 'https://maven.aliyun.com/repository/public' }
    }
}

2. Open the app/build.gradle file and add the dependency on the ARTC SDK to dependencies. You can find the version number in SDK downloads. Replace ${latest_version} with the specific version number. The latest version is 7.8.1.

dependencies {
    // Import the dependency on the ApsaraVideo Real-time Communication SDK.
    // Replace ${latest_version} with the specific version number.
    implementation 'com.aliyun.aio:AliVCSDK_ARTC:${latest_version}'
    // For v7.4.0 and earlier, you must add keep.
    // implementation 'com.aliyun.aio.keep:keep:1.0.1'
}

If you use the Android Gradle Plugin 8.1 or a later version, Android Studio recommends that you migrate dependency information to the version catalog. For more information, see Migrate dependencies to version catalogs.

Manual integration by downloading the SDK

1. From SDK downloads, download the AAR file of the ARTC SDK for the version that you need. The latest version is 7.8.1. The file is named AliVCSDK_ARTC-x.y.z.aar.

2. Copy the downloaded AAR file to your project directory, such as app/libs. If this folder does not exist, you can create it.

3. In the root directory of your project, open the settings.gradle file. Add the folder that contains the AAR file to dependencyResolutionManagement/repositories.

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        // Add the relative directory where the ARTC SDK is located.
        flatDir {
            dir 'app/libs'
        }
    }
}

Note: If you use a version of the Android Gradle Plugin earlier than 7.1.0, you may not find the corresponding field in the settings.gradle file. For more information, see Android Gradle Plugin 7.1. In this case, use the following alternative solution:

In the root directory of your project, open the build.gradle file. Add the following field to allprojects/repositories:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        // Add the relative directory where the ARTC SDK is located.
        flatDir {
            dir 'app/libs'
        }
    }
}

4. Open the app/build.gradle file and add the dependency on the AAR file to dependencies.

// Replace x.y.z with the corresponding version number.
implementation(name:'AliVCSDK_ARTC', version: 'x.y.z', ext:'aar')

5. After the build is complete, the corresponding dependency is generated under External Libraries.

   

Automatic integration using CocoaPods (recommended)

1. Open Terminal and install CocoaPods. If you have already installed CocoaPods, you can skip this step.

sudo gem install cocoapods

2. Open Terminal, go to the root directory of your project, and run the following command to create a Podfile.

pod init

3. Open and edit the generated Podfile to add the dependency on the ARTC SDK. The latest version is 7.8.1.

target 'MyApp' do
  use_frameworks!
  # Replace ${latest version} with the specific version number.
  pod 'AliVCSDK_ARTC', '~> ${latest version}'
end

4. In Terminal, run the following command to update the CocoaPods dependency library in your project.

pod install

5. After the command runs successfully, a project file with the .xcworkspace extension is generated in the project folder. Double-click this file to open the project in Xcode. The CocoaPods dependencies in the workspace are automatically loaded.

   

Manual integration by downloading the SDK

1. From SDK downloads, obtain the latest ARTC SDK file and decompress it.

2. Copy the framework files from the decompressed SDK package to your project directory.

3. Open your project in Xcode, choose File -> Add Files to "xxx" from the menu, and add the SDK library files to your project.

   

4. Select the target and set the imported framework files to "Embed & Sign".
