A Framework enabling Device Interaction using REST.
Imagine you could look at the images of all the devices around and then flick at your TV to show it on the big screen.
IntAirAct enables Developers to achieve just that.
It finds all the devices on the network, allows you to share content between them and tell other devices to show that content. And all of that using stuff we all know and love: HTTP, REST and JSON.
Choose your environment: C#, iOS or OS X.
The easiest way to get started in C# is using NuGet. When NuGet is installed: Right click on your project and choose Manage NuGet Packages…. Search for the IntAirAct package and install it. This will also automatically install all dependencies.
Download the latest iOS version and unarchive the Frameworks.
Place all of the Frameworks inside your project folder. We recommend a sub-folder called Frameworks.
Drag the Frameworks into your project.
Make sure that all the Frameworks are linked with your binary.
Add -ObjC to the Other Linker Flags Build Setting and link the following Frameworks:
Now you can head to the Documentation to get started or to the Examples for some implementation ideas.

Add a Copy Files build phase copying the following files to Frameworks:
Now you can head to the Documentation to get started or to the Examples for some implementation ideas.
See IntAirActImageIOS and IntAirActImageOSX.
IntAirAct is compatible with iOS >= 4.0 and OS X >= 10.6.
Look at the Code Documentation.
A nested project enables the change of Framework code during development. This could make debugging easier. But it also increases the build time for fresh builds.
If you are using git for your project, add it as a submodule:
git submodule add https://github.com/ase-lab/IntAirAct.git Frameworks/IntAirAct
cd Frameworks/IntAirAct
git submodule update --init --recursive
If you are not using git for your project:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ase-lab/IntAirAct.git Frameworks/IntAirAct
Drag the IntAirAct project into your project to add it as a nested project.
Now it depends on whether your are coding for iOS or OS X.
Add IntAirActStaticIOS as a Target Dependency of your main target.
Link the following Static Libraries:
Add -ObjC to the Other Linker Flags Build Setting and link the following Frameworks:
Now you can head to the Documentation to get started or to the Examples for some implementation ideas.
Add IntAirActOSX as a Target Dependency of your main target.
Link the Binary with the following Frameworks:

To build IntAirAct as a Framework you use these rake tasks. Please note that Ruby 1.9 is required.
For iOS and OS X use bundle exec rake build, otherwise use bundle exec rake ios:build or bundle exec rake osx:build respectively.
The Frameworks for iOS are in build/Release-iphoneos and for OS X in build/Release.
The advantage is that you only build it once. A nested project always builds everything for a fresh build (e.g. after a clean).
A disadvantage is that you can’t change the code of the Framework directly if you want to. You also can’t browse the source files to set breakpoints. But you can step into the Framework functions. This makes debugging a little more difficult.
