    This tutorial mainly introduces how to implement a basic audio and video call with Objective-C.

    Prerequisites

    Xcode 13.0 or later.
    iPhone or iPad with iOS 9.0 or later.
    A valid developer signature for your project.

    Integration guideline

    Step 1. Import TRTC SDK

    1. Run the following command in a terminal window to install CocoaPods. If you have installed CocoaPods, skip this step.
    sudo gem install cocoapods
    2. In the terminal window, go to the project root directory and run the following command to create the Podfile for your project.
    pod init
    3. Edit and save the Podfile as follows.
    platform :ios, '8.0'
    
    # Modify the 'App' to the name of your project
    target 'App' do
    pod 'TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC', :podspec => 'https://liteav.sdk.qcloud.com/pod/liteavsdkspec/TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC.podspec'
    end
    4. In the terminal window, run the following command to update the local library files and download the TRTC SDK.
    pod install
    Note:
    After the pod install executed, a new .xcworkspace project file is generated. Double-click the .xcworkspace file to open it.

    Step 2. Configure project

    1. Once the .xcworkspace file opened, click on the Project Navigator on the left in the Xcode navigation bar, click on your project name, and make sure you select the correct TARGETS in the edit area.
    2. In the General TAB, add the TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC.xcframework to the the Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content section, making sure to select Embed & Sign in Embed.
    
    
    
    3. In the Build Settings TAB, search for User Script Sandboxing and set its value to No, which could allow the user script access to a wider range of system resources and files.
    
    
    
    4. In the the Info.plist TAB, add the Privacy-Microphone Usage Description and Privacy-Microphone Usage Description, and fill in the target prompt words used by the Microphone/Camera to obtain the permission to use the microphone and camera.
    
    
    
    5. In the Signing & Capabilities TAB, add the Background Modes and check Audio, AirPlay and Picture in Picture to allow the app to run audio, AirPlay and picture-in-picture functions in the background.
    
    
    

    Step 3. Create TRTC instance

    1. Import the TRTC SDK in the AppDelegate.h file.
    @import TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC; // Import TRTC SDK Module
    2. Declare the TRTCCloud property and the TRTCCloudDelegate interface in the AppDelegate.h file.
    @interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate, TRTCCloudDelegate> // Declare the TRTCCloudDelegate interface
    
    @property (nonatomic, strong) TRTCCloud *trtcCloud; // Declare the TRTCCloud property
    3. After entering the AppDelegate.m file, call sharedInstance to create the TRTC instance in the didFinishLaunchingWithOptionsmethod and set up the event listener.
    - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    // Create a TRTC instance and set up a listener
    _trtcCloud = [TRTCCloud sharedInstance];
    _trtcCloud.delegate = self;
    return YES;
    }
    
    // Listen for the 'onError' event
    - (void)onError:(TXLiteAVError)errCode
    errMsg:(nullable NSString *)errMsg
    extInfo:(nullable NSDictionary *)extInfo{
    // Handle the 'onError' event
    // Recommend to display OnError information via 'toastTip:'
    NSString *errCodeStr = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%ld", (long)errCode];
    NSString *extInfoStr = extInfo ? [extInfo description] : @"";
    NSString *notification = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@, %@, %@", errCodeStr, errMsg, extInfoStr];
    [self toastTip:notification];
    }
    
    // Implement 'toastTip:'
    - (void)toastTip:(NSString *)tip {
    UIAlertController *alert = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Tip"
    message:tip
    preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
    UIAlertAction *okAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Confirm"
    style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
    handler:nil];
    [alert addAction:okAction];
    [self.window.rootViewController presentViewController:alert animated:YES completion:nil];
    dispatch_after(dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, (int64_t)(2.0 * NSEC_PER_SEC)), dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
    [alert dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
    });
    }

    Step 4. Enter the room

    Set the entry parameter TRTCParams and call enterRoom to successfully enter the room, which is usually called after clicking the Start Call button.
    Parameter
    Type
    Description
    sdkAppId
    number
    The sdkAppId of the audio and video application you created in TRTC Console.
    userId
    string
    User ID specified by you.
    userSig
    string
    User signature, refer to UserSig
    roomId
    number
    Room ID specified by you, usually a unique room ID.
    For more detailed parameter descriptions, please refer to the interface document enterRoom
    #import "AppDelegate.h" // Import the "AppDelegate.h" file
    
    - (void)enterRoom {
    // Modify the following parameters to your own
    TRTCParams *trtcParams = [[TRTCParams alloc] init];
    trtcParams.sdkAppId = 1400000123;
    trtcParams.userId = @"denny";
    trtcParams.userSig = @"";
    trtcParams.roomId = 123321;
    // For multi-party video calls, `TRTC_APP_SCENE_LIVE` is recommended
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud enterRoom:trtcParams appScene:TRTCAppSceneLIVE];
    }
    
    // Listen for the 'onEnterRoom' event
    - (void)onEnterRoom:(NSInteger)result {
    // Handle the 'onEnterRoom' event
    // Recommend to display OnError information via 'toastTip:'
    }

    Step 5. Turn on/off Camera

    1. Declare the UIWindow and UIView properties in the ViewController.h file.
    @property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window; // Declare the UIWindow property
    @property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *localCameraVideoView; // Declare the UIView property
    2. Set the render parameter setLocalRenderParams for the local preview, and call startLocalPreview for the local preview, and start the push after successfully calling enterRoom.
    - (void)startLocalPreview {
    // Set the local preview rendering parameter
    TRTCRenderParams *trtcRenderParams = [[TRTCRenderParams alloc] init];
    trtcRenderParams.fillMode = TRTCVideoFillMode_Fill;
    trtcRenderParams.mirrorType = TRTCVideoMirrorTypeAuto;
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud setLocalRenderParams:trtcRenderParams];
    
    // Preview the collected content locally
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalPreview:YES view:self.localCameraVideoView];
    }
    Call stopLocalPreview to turn off the camera preview and stop pushing local video information.
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud stopLocalPreview];
    3. Perform other extended device functions such as "Switch front and rear cameras", "Set focus Mode", and "Flash".
    // By default, the front camera is enabled and switch to the rear camera
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    if([deviceManager isFrontCamera]) {
    [deviceManager switchCamera:false];
    }
    
    // Switch to the front camera
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    [deviceManager switchCamera:true];
    // If the automatic face recognition supported, enable the auto focus function
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    if([deviceManager isAutoFocusEnabled]) {
    [deviceManager enableCameraAutoFocus:true];
    }
    
    // Disable the autofocus function
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    [deviceManager enableCameraAutoFocus:false];
    // The flash can be turned on when using the rear camera
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    if(![deviceManager isFrontCamera]) {
    [deviceManager enableCameraTorch:true];
    }
    
    // Turn off the flash
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    TXDeviceManager * deviceManager = [appDelegate.trtcCloud getDeviceManager];
    [deviceManager enableCameraTorch:false];
    4. Initialize the localCameraVideoView in the ViewController.m file, and add it to the view hierarchy of the current view.
    #import "AppDelegate.h" // Import the "AppDelegate.h" file
    
    - (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    
    // Initialize localCameraVideoView
    self.localCameraVideoView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
    self.localCameraVideoView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
    [self viewDidAppear];
    }
    
    - (void)viewDidAppear {
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    // Add the localCameraVideoView to the view hierarchy of the current view
    [self.view addSubview:self.localCameraVideoView];
    
    // Start local preview
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalPreview:YES view:self.localCameraVideoView];
    }
    @end

    Step 6. Turn on/off microphone

    Call the startLocalAudio to turn on microphone capture. Select one of the following sound Quality parameters according to your requirements.
    // Enable microphone acquisition and set the current scene to: Voice mode
    // For high noise suppression capability, strong and weak network resistance
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalAudio:TRTCAudioQualitySpeech];
    // Enable microphone acquisition, and set the current scene to: Music mode
    // For high fidelity acquisition, low sound quality loss, recommended to use with professional sound cards
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalAudio:TRTCAudioQualityMusic];
    Call stopLocalAudio to turn off microphone collection and stop pushing local audio information.
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud stopLocalAudio];

    Step 7. Play/stop video streaming

    1. Listen to onUserVideoAvailable before entering the room. When you receive the onUserVideoAvailable(userId, true) notification, it means that there are video frames available to play in the road screen.
    2. Call startRemoteView to play the video content collected by the remote side.
    - (void)startRemoteView {
    // Play the remote side's video
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startRemoteView:@"denny" streamType:TRTCVideoStreamTypeBig view:self.localCameraVideoView];
    }
    Call stopRemoteView to stop the remote video.
    // Stop the video
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud stopRemoteView:@"denny"]; // Only stop denny's video
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud stopAllRemoteView]; // Stop all videos

    Step 8. Play/stop the audio stream

    Call muteRemoteAudio to mute or unmute the remote side's sound.
    // Mute
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud muteRemoteAudio:@"denny" mute:YES]; // Only mute denny
    
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud muteAllRemoteAudio:YES]; // Mute all remote users
    // Unmute
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud muteRemoteAudio:@"denny" mute:NO]; // Only unmute denny
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud muteAllRemoteAudio:NO]; // Unmute all remote users

    Step 9. Exit the room

    Call exitRoom to exit the current room, and the TRTC SDK will notify you after check-out via the onExitRoom callback event.
    // Exit current room
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud exitRoom];
    
    // Listen for the onExitRoom callback to find out why you checked out
    - (void)onExitRoom:(NSInteger)reason {
    if (reason == 0) {
    NSLog(@"Exit current room by calling the 'exitRoom' api of sdk ...");
    } else if (reason == 1) {
    NSLog(@"Kicked out of the current room by server through the restful api...");
    } else if (reason == 2) {
    NSLog(@"Current room is dissolved by server through the restful api...");
    }
    }
