WooCommerce Mobile App

🎉 Build Instructions

1. Download Xcode

   At the moment WooCommerce for iOS uses Swift 5.7 and requires Xcode 14 or newer. Previous versions of Xcode can be downloaded from Apple.

2. Install Ruby. We recommend using rbenv to install it. Please refer to the .ruby-version file for the required Ruby version.

   We use Ruby to manage the third party dependencies and other tools and automation.

3. Clone project in the folder of your preference

   git clone https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-ios.git
   

4. Enter the project directory

   cd woocommerce-ios
   

5. Install the third party dependencies and tools required to run the project.

   brew install xz && bundle install && bundle exec rake dependencies
   

   This command installs the required build tools and dependencies.

   Automattic contributors should first install and set up a8c-secrets; the command above then decrypts the project secrets. Re-run it, or a8c-secrets decrypt, whenever the secrets are rotated.

6. Open the project by double clicking on WooCommerce.xcworkspace file, or launching Xcode and choose File > Open and browse to WooCommerce.xcworkspace

Credentials for External Contributors

In order to login to WordPress.com using the app:

1. Create a WordPress.com account (if you don't already have one).
2. Create a new developer application here.
3. Set "Website URL" = http://www.wordpress.com, "Redirect URLs" = https://localhost, "Javascript Origins" = https://localhost and "Type" = Native and click Create. On the next page, click Update.
4. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret from the OAuth Information.
5. Open WooCommerce/Credentials/Templates/ApiCredentials-Template.swift.
6. Fill in the dotcomAppId with the Client ID.
7. Fill in the dotcomSecret with the Client Secret.
8. Build and run the app on a device or inside simulator.

The build phase copies this template into each target's derived sources directory on every build, so your edits persist across clean builds.

Please, remember to not add this information on your commits and PRs.
