KCSIBeacon

Generic iBeacon Management and Utilities

Installation

KCSIBeacon is available as a CocoaPods to install add to your podfile:

pod "KCSIBeacon"

Usage

Setup

1. Add to project with CocoaPods

2. Import

     #import "KCSIBeacon.h"
     
   

3. Set up your class to conform to KCSBeaconManagerDelegate

4. Create an instance of KCSBeaconManager

    self.beaconManager = [[KCSBeaconManager alloc] init];
    self.beaconManager.delegate = self;
    
   

5. Start Monitoring Beacon Regions, e.g.

    [self.beaconManager startMonitoringForRegion:@"41AF5763-174C-4C2C-9E4A-C99EAB4AE668" identifier:@"ipad" major:@(10) minor:@(1)];
    [self.beaconManager startMonitoringForRegion:@"F7826DA6-4FA2-4E98-8024-BC5B71E0893E" identifier:@"kontakt"]; //monitors all major & minor
   

6. Implement protocol methods to receive interesting events:

   • Ranging events, region enter/exit, and if there is a new nearest beacon.

   • e.g:

     • (void)newNearestBeacon2:(CLBeacon )beacon { //show a modal for new beacon if ([beacon.proximityUUID isEqual:kUUID] && [beacon.major intValue] == 1) { NearbyBeaconViewController nearby = [[NearbyBeaconViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"NearbyBeaconViewController" bundle:nil]; [self presentViewController:nearby animated:YES completion:nil]; } }
