Copy of imUrlDataApp see its readme that adds event logging using PostHog.
See imPiggie/Common/PostHogPen.swift for the setup function.
It relies on a trivial structure not included in GitHub
struct imPiggieSecrets {
static let PostHog_apiKey = "the string you get from PostHog when you sign up"
}
The imPiggie/imPiggie Code Change Diary.txt describes how the calls to use event logging were added.
Note that because an iMessage app extension is a bunch of callbacks, that setup() and flush() are called relatively often.
If you're here because you're interested in PostHog rather than iMessage, these samples may be a bit confusing.
The extension is packaged with a host app, so if you built and installed this project you would see an imPiggie app on your phone as well as it appearing inside Messages.
An iMessage app extension is a plugin for Apple Messages app. It is invoked from within Messages:
- to Receive a message sent with an extension
- if you don't have it installed, the Messages app provides a link to install right there in the message bubble
- when it's installed, tapping the bubble will launch the extension. Depending on the extension, it may just display content in the compact view which takes up the same space as the keyboard. Otherwise, it will expand to fill most of the screen.
- to Send with an extension, you need to pick it from the installed extensions. See Apple's help on how to get iMessage apps as per the screenshot below:
