We recommend you use "git clone" to get the repository from Github, but please follow the instructions below to correctly download the repository because we use git LFS for some large files.
Important Note!
When downloading source, DO NOT download the source as a zip file. This will NOT get you the core library files (stored in git LFS).
If you're cloning the SDK from Github, it's very important to ensure that you have the Git LFS (Large file system) installed on your computer. Please follow the 4 Steps below:
Step 1: Ensure you have git LFS on your computer
To install using HomeBrew on Mac, open a terminal window and type:
The SDK will be downloaded into a folder called PlacenoteSDK-iOS. Let's do a quick test to ensure you have downloaded the Placenote library using git lfs correctly. Open the PlacenoteSDK-iOS folder.
Now navigate to: Pods/PlacenoteSDK/Placenote.framework
Right click on the .framework and click "Get Info". The size of this framework folder should be higher than 8MB.
Step 4: Open the workspace
In the PlacenoteSDK-iOS folder, look for the PlacenoteSDKExample.xcworkspace file and double click it to open in Xcode.
Open the PlacenoteSDKExample.xcworkspace fie
Done! You have successfully downloaded the SDK and opened up the Sample projects.
