So I downloaded the latest 3.1 Facebook iOS sdk and under the scripts I found a build_documentation.sh which I ran. It completed and generated a com.facebook.Facebook-SDK-3_0-for-iOS.docset file. I am trying to get it to integrate nicely with XCode. I know that apple docs can create documentation that shows up in the quick help panel. My own custom documentation works great.
Does anyone know what I have to do to get the same kind of documentation integration with Facebook?
EDIT:
I tried adding the docset to the corresponding folder according to the instructions here
and restarted Xcode but it didn't work
If you install the SDK from the package you don't have to generate the docset yourself.
Go to https://developers.facebook.com/ios
Click on the Download SDK button
You can get the Facebook Documentation working with the following:
Build the Facebook Documentation with the provided shell scripts
Move the .docset to /Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets
If it doesn't work, you may have to check, if you moved the docset to ~/Library/Developer/Shared/Documentation/DocSets. This is sometimes WRONG
Why does it work by installing the Facebook Framework directly from the .pkg?
It moves it to /Library/..., not to ~/Library/...

I'm upgrading from an earlier version of Google Analytics for my iOS app and when I follow the instructions here, I click the button to create a configuration file and nothing happens. Anyone else experience this? Is there a default GoogleService-Info.plist that I can use and customize?
Thanks!
Seems to be a bug on their site. It worked for me 2 weeks ago. However you have already found Googles Guide - the config file does not contain any complicated settings, however you can download the Sample Apps and get your initial GoogleService-Info.plist file from there:
pod try Google
from
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/code-samples#try-the-sdk-demos-using-cocoapods
Steps for getting configuration if your first time login to google developer account.
1. open google developer console.
2. login to developer console.
3. create project with valid name.
4. then goto the API section & enable GCM API.
5. Then get the configuration file.
Thanks for the suggestions, looks like they would work for others. Unfortunately, I just couldn't get Cocoa Pods to upgrade the analytics, so I switched tactics and used the sdk directly. This worked fine, hopefully others have better luck!
Trying to follow Facebook's instructions for adding the iOS SDK but they lost me at step 1.
The download is a zip file containing the following:
Anyone have any idea where this wizard is?
Hey there is nothing related with the wizard. Now you have the SDK containing the required framework. Now simply use those frameworks in your project. For further help follow "https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/getting-started".
I have been having trouble getting the latest Facebook SDK 6.2.1 to function with Unity 5.0.0f4 in both my project and an empty one.
Here is what I do:-
Create a blank project
import Facebook SDK
Set App ID and Name in editor settings
Add sample scene to build settings
Build Xcode Project
Open in Xcode
Disable ARC in settings
Remove extra #endif when xcode complains about it
Build and Run game on iOS device
The error I end up with is in the following link:-
dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13490919/FacebookiOSProb/Screenshot%202015-03-12%2014.53.29.png
The error I get is "EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1)". I'm not much of an xcode/iOS guy so this confuses me a tone load. This error does not occur if facebook isn't present. Has anyone got any idea how to get around this? Surely i'm not the only one with this issue. All I want to do is get an access token from facebook. If need be, I don't mind using a simple webview or something similar.
Any help on this would be much appreciated. I would give free hugs to but ya know.
Thanks
Ive managed to solve the issue. As posted by someone else on unity forums here, you need to mark the option "iOS" as platform for plugin and adding "-fno-objc-arc" as compile flag in the following file: Assets/Facebook/Editor/iOS/FbUnityInterface.mm
This works with the latest versions of Unity 5.0.1f and Facebook SDK 6.2.1 as of this post.
Facebook SDK for Unity Downloads
Note: Only Unity 4 is supported at this time
That is why it's not working. I don't know when Facebook will launch their sdk for Unity 5.
I'm attempting to upgrade from Facebook SDK 2.0 to 3.0 and I'm having basically the same issue as is mentioned in this thread: XCode & Facebook IOS SDK - Instructions incorrect but with a slightly different goal I think.
I'm using the instructions here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/ios/build/
When I try to build the static library, I get a "no such file or directory" message. I checked, and sure enough, there is no build_facebook_ios_sdk_static_lib.sh file in the "scripts" directory when I try to execute it.
Here's my dilemma. We have multiple developers on the project (and some other members who basically know how to pull down and build within Xcode but that's about it), and I don't want to require all of them to install the Facebook SDK. Same for a build machine (though in that instance I suppose we could install the SDK directly on the build machine).
It sounds like building a static library has been effectively deprecated, or maybe I'm missing something, but what I really need to just get all the pertinent code into our repository, and in a form in which anyone can just pull it down and build. Is this possible with the 3.0 SDK, and if so, what would be the steps to do that?
Thanks!
For the Facebook SDK 3.1 (latest from 3.0) you should not follow the old instructions, instead check these instructions out:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/getting-started/facebook-sdk-for-ios/3.1/
I am following this guide.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/ios/build/
For setting up the Facebook IOS SDK for my XCode project..
I got to the part that says to run
% ~/facebook-ios-sdk/scripts/build_facebook_ios_sdk_static_lib.sh
in the terminal..
I tried that and it didn't work, so i went to find that script file manually and it isn't in the folder specified.. My questions is am i missing something? or does anyone know if the file was renamed?
Thanks.
You're right, this script is not included in the newest version on github.
However you can download the SDK and use it as described in the "Getting Started" section - Start a new Xcode Project. So far I had no issues with the SDK 3.0 and ARC in my project.
That script is there in my instance. Is it possible that the facebook-ios-sdk directory isn't in the top level of your home directory as in /Users/yourusername/facebook-ios-sdk? It needs to be there for you to follow the instructions verbatim.
