Developing

This guide contains the steps required to contribute to the development of this project.

Setting Up a Development Environment

This project runs on Apple's Metal rendering framework. Prerequisites for running the test app in simulators:

  • macOS 10.15 or later
  • Xcode 12.5.1+

This project:

  1. requires a valid ~/.netrc file to fetch dependencies.

  2. reads a Mapbox access token from a file at ~/mapbox to enable tests and apps to access Mapbox APIs.

  3. uses SwiftLint to enforce a style guide. Install it with brew install swiftlint and check for lint by running swiftlint in the root of the repository.

  4. uses Swift Package Manager to manage dependencies for development. Cocapods is supported for consuming the SDK.

  5. uses secret-shield to help block secrets such as access tokens from being exposed. Setup secret-shield by running:

    npm install -g @mapbox/secret-shield
scripts/install-pre-commit/install-pre-commit.sh

  6. uses CircleCI and Firebase Test Lab for continuous integration.

Accessing the Maps SDK's Source

Clone the git repository:

git clone [email protected]:mapbox/mapbox-maps-ios.git && cd mapbox-maps-ios

Building the Maps SDK

Open Apps/Apps.xcworkspace and build the MapboxMaps target.

Running the Debug App

In order to use the debug app, run the DebugApp scheme.

Updating Dependency Versions

  • Update the dependency versions in Package.swift
  • Open Package.swift in Xcode and resolve dependencies. This updates Package.resolved. Close that Xcode workspace.
  • Open Apps/Apps.xcworkspace in Xcode and resolve dependencies. This updates a different Package.resolved file in the Apps.workspace bundle. Close that Xcode workspace.
  • Update the dependency versions in MapboxMaps.podspec
  • Update the dependency versions in scripts/release/packager/versions.json

Configuring CircleCI

You can run make validate to ensure you've formatted the changes to the CircleCI config file correctly. This make target will install the CircleCI command line interface to validate .circleci/config.yml, and run circleci config validate.

Running Unit Tests On Devices

To run unit tests on an iOS device there are two options:

  1. Run locally:

    • Install xcodegen.
    • Run $ xcodegen in the root of the repo.
    • Open the resulting MapboxMaps.xcodeproj.
    • Test the MapboxTestHost scheme.

  2. Run in CI:

    • Open the optional-tests workflow for your branch in CircleCI
    • Approve the run-tests? job to trigger running unit tests on Firebase Test Lab
    • Approve the run-examples-tests? job to trigger running examples tests on Firebase Test Lab

Running Integration Tests

Integration tests typically require a Metal device, so these tests can only run locally and on Firebase Test Lab. They are skipped when running on CircleCI inside of a VM and when running on simulators < iOS 13 (iOS 13+ has a simulated Metal device.)

What happens if I run integration tests via MapboxTestHost?

There is a host application, so MapViewIntegrationTestCase fetches the existing window and view controller before adding the MapView to it.

  • These tests can be run on devices.
  • Tests will be skipped on simulators < iOS 13

What happens if I run integration tests via MapboxMaps

There is no host application, so MapViewIntegrationTestCase creates its own UIWindow and root view controller, before adding the MapView to it.

  • These tests cannot be run on devices.
  • Tests will be skipped on simulators < iOS 13
  • Tests will be skipped entirely on CircleCI because of the VM (no Metal).

Base classes

  • IntegrationTestCase is a base class that fetches the access token for use in tests. It checks for the token in the following locations and uses the first one that it finds:

    • UserDefaults under the key MBXAccessToken. This allows setting a value when running tests from the command line.

    • Info.plist under the key MBXAccessToken. The value for this key is populated automatically when running tests via MapboxTestHost if you have a developer.xcconfig file in the root of the repo that looks like:

      MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN = pk.myaccesstoken

    • a resource in the test bundle named MapboxAccessToken. This file is generated at build time via a pre-action on the scheme when running tests using MapboxMaps. The pre-action pulls the token from ~/mapbox or ~/.mapbox.

  • MapViewIntegrationTestCase subclasses the above, and sets the MapView. Closures are used to expose key map events to subclasses. Please don't add tests to this class.

  • ExampleIntegrationTest is an example of using the above, that sets a style then waits for the load to finish.

Making an Example
