The Kickflip platform provides a complete video broadcasting solution for your iOS application. You can use our pre-built KFBroadcastViewController to stream live video to your Kickflip account starting with one line of code. Check out our Kickflip iOS SDK example to get started.

The quickest way to get started will be to fork the Kickflip iOS SDK example. Launch Kickflip's default KFBroadcastViewController to instantly stream live video from your application:

#import "Kickflip.h"
// Call setup as soon as possible so your users can start streaming right away
[Kickflip setupWithAPIKey:@"API_KEY" secret:@"API_SECRET"];
...
- (void) broadcastButtonPressed:(id)sender {
	[Kickflip presentBroadcasterFromViewController:self ready:^(KFStream *stream) {
        if (stream.streamURL) {
            NSLog(@"Stream is ready at URL: %@", stream.streamURL);
        }
    } completion:^(BOOL success, NSError* error){
        if (!success) {
            NSLog(@"Error setting up stream: %@", error);
        } else {
            NSLog(@"Done broadcasting");
        }
    }];
}

You'll need to install Cocoapods first.

Add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'Kickflip'

Then run Cocoapods to install all of the dependencies:

$ pod install

As with all projects that depend on Cocoapods, make sure to open the new .xcworkspace file, not your .xcodeproj file.
