Initialize the SDK

You have downloaded the SDK dependency to your app/project during the installation stage of this setup. To begin using the SDK, you must initialize it in your project. The steps for this differ depending on whether you are using iOS or Android. The following section details the initialization instructions for both.

Initialize the iOS SDK

To initialize the Mobile SDK, pass the configuration object into the SDK. The configuration contains information such as the environment, theme and the merchant's public key. The following is an example of the SDK initialization:

let environment = SDKEnvironment.sandbox
let publicKey = "public_key"
let theme = Theme() // This is optional parameter

let config = MobileSDKConfig(environment: environment, publicKey: publicKey, theme: theme)
MobileSDK.shared.configureMobileSDK(config: config)

1. For let publicKey = "public_key", replace public_key with the value that you generated during authentication.

2. Set the SDK Environment.

3. Apply a custom theme to the SDK. This step is optional.

Initialize the Android SDK

You must use a builder pattern in the Android Application class to manage and setup the MobileSDK.

MobileSDK
  .Builder(<public_key>) // required
  .environment(Environment.<environment>) // optional -> default to Production
  .applyTheme(<MobileSDkTheme>) // optional
  .build(Application@this) // required (context)

1. Initialize the SDK from the Android Application class. The SDK can only be initialized once per app launch.

2. Add your Paydock account public key to .Builder(<public_key>). This value is required and your MobileSDK will not work internally without it. If you do not have a public_key, you can generate it in the Authentication instructions.

3. Set the SDK environment. This step is optional.

4. Apply a custom theme to the SDK. This step is also optional.

5. Add the context .build(Application@this). This is mandatory.
