This project is a part of The SOOMLA Framework, which is a series of open source initiatives with a joint goal to help mobile game developers do more together. SOOMLA encourages better game design, economy modeling, social engagement, and faster development.

Haven't you ever wanted a status sharing one liner that looks like this ?!

C++

soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::getInstance()->updateStatus(soomla::FACEBOOK, "I love this game !", soomla::CCVirtualItemReward::create( ... ), ...);

SOOMLA's Profile Module for Cocos2d-x

April 1st, 2015: v1.2 Event handlers replaced with Cocos2d-x event system (needs core update as well)

March 16, 2015: v1.1 Better integration for all Soomla modules in Cocos2d-x (needs core update as well)

November 16th: v1.0 cocos2dx-profile supports Facebook, Google+ and Twitter

• More documentation and information in SOOMLA's Knowledge Base
• For issues you can use the issues section or SOOMLA's Answers Website. cocos2dx-profile currently supports all Cocos2d-x 3.x versions.

cocos2dx-profile is the Cocos2d-x flavour of SOOMLA's Profile Module. This project uses android-profile and ios-profile in order to provide game developers with social network connectivity for their cocos2d-x projects.

cocos2dx-profile easily connects to SOOMLA's virtual economy model (cocos2dx-store), thus you can reward players for performing social interactions with virtual rewards (CCVirtualItemReward, etc). That said this integration is completely optional.

There is an example project that shows how to use cocos2dx-profile:

C++: https://github.com/soomla/cocos2dx-profile-example

The example project is still under development but it already has some important aspects of the framework that you can learn and implement in your application.

• cocos2dx-profile 1.5.1

• Clone this repository recursively: git clone --recursive https://github.com/soomla/cocos2dx-profile.git
• Run ./build_all from project directory
• Take created binaries from build directory and use it!

If you want to develop with sources, refer to the Working with sources section below

If you didn't do that already, clone the Cocos2d-x framework from here or download it from the Cocos2d-x website. Make sure the version you clone is supported by cocos2dx-profile (the tag is the version).

1. Clone soomla-cocos2dx-core and cocos2dx-profile into the extensions directory located at the root of your Cocos2d-x framework.

   $ git clone [email protected]:soomla/soomla-cocos2dx-core.git extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core
   
   $ git clone [email protected]:soomla/cocos2dx-profile.git extensions/cocos2dx-profile
   

2. We use a fork of the jansson library for json parsing, clone our fork into the external directory at the root of your framework.

   $ git clone [email protected]:soomla/jansson.git external/jansson
   

3. Make sure to include the Cocos2dxProfile.h header whenever you use any of the cocos2dx-profile functions:

   #include "Cocos2dxProfile.h"

4. Initialize CCSoomla and CCSoomlaProfile with the class you just created, a customSecret and other params:

   soomla::CCSoomla::initialize("customSecret");

   __Dictionary *profileParams = __Dictionary::create();
   soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::initialize(profileParams);

   • Custom Secret - is an encryption secret you provide that will be used to secure your data. Choose the secret wisely. You can't change it after you launch your game!

   Initialize CCSoomlaProfile ONLY ONCE when your application loads.

5. Note that some social providers need special parameters to be passed in order for them to work:

6. Facebook - No special parameters

7. Google+ - Please provide Client ID from the "API & Auth, credentials" section like so: ```cpp __Dictionary *googleParams = __Dictionary::create(); googleParams->setObject(__String::create("[YOUR CLIENT ID]"), "clientId");

profileParams->setObject(googleParams, soomla::CCUserProfileUtils::providerEnumToString(soomla::GOOGLE)->getCString());
```

1. Twitter - Please provide Consumer Key and Consumer Secret from the "Keys and Access Tokens" section in Twitter Apps, like so: ```cpp __Dictionary *twitterParams = __Dictionary::create(); twitterParams->setObject(__String::create("[YOUR CONSUMER KEY]"), "consumerKey"); twitterParams->setObject(__String::create("[YOUR CONSUMER SECRET]"), "consumerSecret");

profileParams->setObject(twitterParams, soomla::CCUserProfileUtils::providerEnumToString(soomla::TWITTER)->getCString());
```

1. You'll need to subscribe to profile events to get notified about social network related events. refer to the Event Handling section for more information.

The next steps are different for the different platforms.

In your XCode project, perform the following steps:

1. Add jansson (external/jansson/) to your project (just add it as a source folder, make sure to check "create group").

2. For the following XCode projects:

• Cocos2dXCore.xcodeproj (extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/).

• Cocos2dXProfile.xcodeproj (extensions/cocos2dx-profile/).

  1. Drag them to your project.
  2. Add their targets to your Build Phases->Target Dependencies.
  3. Add the Products (*.a) of these projects to Build Phases->Link Binary With Libraries.

1. Add the following directories to Build Settings->Header Search Paths (with recursive option):

   This article assumes you have a cocos2d folder under your project folder and which either contains the Cocos2d-x framework, or links to to its root folder

   • $(SRCROOT)/../cocos2d/extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/Soomla
   • $(SRCROOT)/../cocos2d/extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/build/ios/headers
   • $(SRCROOT)/../cocos2d/extensions/cocos2dx-profile/Soomla
   • $(SRCROOT)/../cocos2d/extensions/cocos2dx-profile/build/ios/headers

2. To support browser-based authentication add the following method in your AppController (for more information see ios-profile):

  - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
              openURL:(NSURL *)url
    sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication
           annotation:(id)annotation
  {
      BOOL urlWasHandled = [[SoomlaProfile getInstance] tryHandleOpenURL:url sourceApplication:sourceApplication annotation:annotation];

      if (urlWasHandled) {
          return urlWasHandled;
      }

      // Profile was unable to handle callback, do some custom handling
      return NO;
  }

1. Make sure you have these 3 Frameworks linked to your XCode project: Security, libsqlite3.0.dylib, StoreKit.

2. Set your project's "Library Search Paths" to extensions/cocos2dx-profile/build/ios with recursive option.

3. The following steps should be done according to the target social network:

   • Facebook - Follow the integration steps in ios-profile for Facebook

   • Google+ - Follow the integration steps in ios-profile for Google+

   • Twitter - Follow the integration steps in ios-profile for Twitter

To see a working example, try our cocos2dx-profile-example project

That's it! Now all you have to do is build your XCode project and run your game with cocos2dx-profile.

1. Import the cocos2dx-profile module into your project's Android.mk by adding the following:

   LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES += cocos2dx_profile_static     # add this line along with your other LOCAL_WHOLE_STATIC_LIBRARIES
   
   $(call import-module, extensions/cocos2dx-profile)          # add this line at the end of the file, along with the other import-module calls
   

2. Add the following jars to your android project's classpath:

   • from extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/build/android

     1. SoomlaAndroidCore.jar
     2. Cocos2dxAndroidCore.jar
     3. square-otto-1.3.3.jar

   • from extensions/cocos2dx-profile/build/android

     1. AndroidProfile.jar
     2. Cocos2dxAndroidProfile.jar

3. Update your AndroidManifest.xml to include permissions and the SoomlaApp:

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
   
   <!-- optional: required for uploadImage from SD card -->
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
   
   <application ...
   	       android:name="com.soomla.SoomlaApp">
   	       ...
   </application>

4. The following steps should be done according to the target social network:

NOTE: All jars for social providers are located at the following path: extensions/cocos2dx-profile/build/android

• Facebook - Follow the integration steps in android-profile for Facebook

• Google+ - Follow the integration steps in android-profile for Google+

• Twitter - Follow the integration steps in android-profile for Twitter

To see a working example, try our cocos2dx-profile-example project

That's it! Don't forget to run the build_native.sh script so cocos2dx-profile sources will be built with cocos2d-x.

The Profile module is young and only a few social actions are provided. We're always working on extending the social capabilities and hope the community will "jump" on the chance to create them and even connect them with SOOMLA's modules (Store and LevelUp).

Here is an example of sharing a story on the user's feed:

After you initialized CCSoomlaProfile and logged the user in:

  soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::getInstance()->updateStory(
        soomla::FACEBOOK,
        "Check out this great story by SOOMLA !",
        "SOOMLA is 2 years young!",
        "SOOMLA Story",
        "soomla_2_years",
        "http://blog.soom.la/2014/08/congratulations-soomla-is-2-years-young.html",
        "http://blog.soom.la/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Birthday-bot-300x300.png",
        soomla::CCBadgeReward::create("sherriff", "Sheriff"),
        &profileError);

And that's it! cocos2dx-profile knows how to contact Facebook and share a story with the information you provided. It will also give the user the CCBadgeReward we configured in the function call.

cocos2dx-profile is caching user information on the device. You can access it through:

soomla::CCUserProfile *userProfile = soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::getInstance()->getStoredUserProfile(
        soomla::FACEBOOK,
        &profileError);

The on-device storage is encrypted and kept in a SQLite database. SOOMLA is preparing a cloud-based storage service that will allow this SQLite to be synced to a cloud-based repository that you'll define.

SOOMLA lets you subscribe to profile events, get notified and implement your own application specific behaviour to them.

Your behaviour is an addition to the default behaviour implemented by SOOMLA. You don't replace SOOMLA's behaviour.

SOOMLA uses the Cocos2d-x EventDispatcher to dispatch its own custom events. The names of such events are defined in CCProfileConsts, the received event has a __Dictionary set in its userData which holds all the meta-data for the event. You can subscribe to any event from anywhere in your code.

For example here's how to subscribe to the login finished event:

cocos2d::Director::getInstance()->getEventDispatcher()->addCustomEventListener(soomla::CCProfileConsts::EVENT_LOGIN_FINISHED, CC_CALLBACK_1(ExampleScene::onLoginFinished, this));

Continuing the example, here's how you would handle and extract data from such an event:

void ExampleScene::onLoginFinished(cocos2d::EventCustom *event) {
  cocos2d::__Dictionary *eventData = (cocos2d::__Dictionary *)event->getUserData();
  soomla::CCUserProfile *userProfile = dynamic_cast<soomla::CCUserProfile *>(eventData->objectForKey(soomla::CCProfileConsts::DICT_ELEMENT_USER_PROFILE));
  cocos2d::__String *payload = dynamic_cast<cocos2d::__String *>(eventData->objectForKey(soomla::CCProfileConsts::DICT_ELEMENT_PAYLOAD));

  // Use userProfile and payload for your needs
}

Each event has its own meta-data, see inline documentation in CCProfileEventDispatcher for more information.

Since Cocos2d-x doesn't support exceptions, we use a different method to catch and work with exceptions on the native side. All functions that raise an exception on the native side have an additional CCError* parameter to them. In order to know if an exception was raised, send a reference to CCError* to the function, and inspect it after running.

For example, if I want to log a user into my game and later see if all went through ok, I will call login like this:

soomla::CCError *profileError = nullptr;
soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::getInstance()->login(soomla::FACEBOOK, nullptr, &profileError);

if (profileError != NULL) {
     MessageBox(profileError->getInfo(), "Error");
}

The CCError parameter is entirely optional, you can pass NULL instead if you do not wish to handle errors, but remember, error handling is your responsibility. cocos2dx-profile doesn't do any external error handling (i.e. error handling that uses CCError) for you.

You can enable debug logging in cocos2dx-profile by setting SOOMLA_DEBUG in CCSoomlaUtils.h (which is located in soomla-cocos2dx-core submodule) to true. Debug logging can also be enabled at build time by adding -DSOOMLA_DEBUG=1 to APP_CPPFLAGS in your Application.mk on Android, or by setting SOOMLA_DEBUG=1 in your Build Settings' Preprocessor Macros on iOS.

If you want to see debug messages from android-profile, set the logDebug variable in com.soomla.store.StoreConfig to true.

To see debug messages on iOS, make sure you have also DEBUG=1 in your Build Settings' Preprocessor Macros (for Debug only).

We try to do all our best to make your contributions as easy as possible. We prepared a "sourced" environment for you if you wish to contribute to SOOMLA projects. In order to get it you should:

1. Fetch submodules of repositories, you can do it recursively by cloning them:

   $ git clone --recursive [email protected]:soomla/soomla-cocos2dx-core.git extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core
   $ git clone --recursive [email protected]:soomla/cocos2dx-profile.git extensions/cocos2dx-profile
   

or, if you have repositories already cloned, fetch the submodules with this command: $ git submodule update --init --recursive

You should run this command in every repository.

1. For iOS: Use a sourced versions of linked projects (extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/development/Cocos2dxCoreFromSources.xcodeproj, extensions/cocos2dx-profile/development/Cocos2dxProfileFromSources.xcodeproj)

2. For Android: You can use our "sourced" modules for Android Studio (or IntelliJ IDEA) (extensions/soomla-cocos2dx-core/development/Cocos2dxCoreFromSources.iml, extensions/cocos2dx-profile/development/Cocos2dxProfileFromSources.iml), just include them to your project.

From version 1.2.x it's all about making the integration process on iOS and Android easier. If you are using v1.0.x and want to move to v1.2.x+ follow these steps:

1. Pull the latest version to your extensions folder
2. Remove any Soomla-related code in iOS (AppController.mm) and Android (Cocos2dxActivity), especially code related to ServiceManager and any other Services.
3. In your AppDelegate.cpp:

• Change soomla::CCServiceManager::getInstance()->setCommonParams(commonParams); to soomla::CCSoomla::initialize("customSecret");
• Change soomla::CCProfileService::initShared(profileParams); to soomla::CCSoomlaProfile::initialize(profileParams);
• Remove any #includes to missing header files, you only need Cocos2dxProfile.h for profile

1. Remove any reference to EventHandlers and subscribing through Soomla EventDispatchers, instead use the Cocos2d-x EventDispatcher to subscribe to events.
2. When in doubt follow the cocos2dx-profile-example
