Jitsi Meet Plugin for iOS

This plugin uses the Jitsi SDK.

Xcode and iOS SDK Compatibility

Each version of the jitsi capacitor plugin uses the latest Jitsi SDK version published by Jitsi. In iOS deployment, the SDK version is important because later SDKs compiled using the latest Xcode would not work if you local Xcode is older. So for iOS deployment, make sure you check your Xcode version and install the plugin version that uses the compatible SDK version.

See the plugin changelog for plugin versions that are compatible to your local Xcode

Usage

6. Turn off Bitcode in the app target as well as the pod targets. In xcode Project Navigator,

   i. Pods -> Project -> Pods -> Build Settings -> Enable Bitcode -> No
   
   ii Pods -> Targets -> CapacitorJitsiMeet -> Build Settings -> Enable Bitcode -> No

To automate it during project build, insert these lines of code in the iOS project's Podfile

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
  if target.name == 'CapacitorJitsiMeet' || target.name == 'CapacitorJitsiMeet-Plugin'
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
    end
  end
  end
end

7. Use Swift 5 for the Capacitor target. In Xcode Project Navigator,

    i. Pods -> Targets -> Capacitor -> Build Settings -> Swift Language Version -> Swift 5
