Getting Started

Our Flagship SDK is available for distribution through CocoaPods, Swift Package Manager or Carthage installation.

Cocoapods

1. Install CocoaPods

2. Open Terminal and browse to the directory that contains your project then, enter the following command: pod init

3. Open your Podfile and add the following line to the Podfile

target 'Your App' do
    use_frameworks!

    pod 'FlagShip'

    end

1. Run pod install from your Xcode project's base directory

2. Make sure you always open the Xcode workspace and not the project file when building your project

Swift Package Manager (SPM)

You can search for Flagship package on GitHub.

Add your GitHub or GitHub Enterprise account in Xcode’s preferences, and a package repository appear as you type.

For more information about Swift Package Manager, refer to Apple documentation.

Carthage

1. Install Carthage

2. Create a Cartfile in the same directory where your .xcodeproj or .xcworkspace is.

3. Add this line to the Cartfile

github "flagship-io/flagship-ios" ~> 3.3.5

1. Run carthage update --use-xcframeworks

2. A Cartfile.resolved file and a Carthage directory will appear in the same directory where your .xcodeproj or .xcworkspace is.

3. Drag the built Flagship.xcframework bundles from Carthage/Build into the "Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content" section of your application’s Xcode project.

For More information refer to Carthage

Initialization

To run experiments with Flagship, you will need to start the SDK.

Flagship uses a sharedInstance then create a visitor to activate experiments and track events.

• func start(envId:String, apiKey:String, config:FSConfig)

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
envId	String	Yes	Identifies your Flagship account and environment (pre-prod or prod).
apiKey	String	Yes	Identifies your Flagship api key (pre-prod or prod)
config	FSConfig	No	Object that represent configuration client

📘 API Key & Environment ID required

You can find your apiKey and your environmentId on your Flagship account, in Parameters > Environment & Security.

import Flagship

//Start the Flagship SDK in Api mode and 5 seconds for timeout.
Flagship.sharedInstance.start(envId:"_ENV_ID_", apiKey: "_API_KEY_",
                                      config: FSConfigBuilder().DecisionApi()
                                        .withTimeout(5000)
                                        .withLogLevel(.ALL).build())
        
       
//Start the Flagship SDK in Bucketing mode with custom cache manager  
Flagship.sharedInstance.start(envId: "_ENV_ID_", apiKey: "_API_KEY_", config: FSConfigBuilder().Bucketing()
                                        .withTimeout(5000)
                                        .withLogLevel(.INFO)
                                        .withCacheManager(FSCacheManager(customCacheManager))
                                        .build())

@import Flagship;

/// Create config object
FlagshipConfig *config = [[[[[FSConfigBuilder alloc] init] withTimeout:5000]withLogLevel:FSLevelALL] build];

/// Start Flagship sdk
[[ Flagship sharedInstance] startWithEnvId:@"_ENV_ID_" apiKey:@"_API_KEY_" config:config];

Advanced Configuration

FlagshipConfig class help you to configure the SDK via the following two available config implementations: DecisionApi and Bucketing. See Decision Mode section.

Timeout

This delay only concerns the request on fetching campaigns under the api mode. If the API didn't answer during this interval of time, the SDK will not wait longer for it and will use the modifications values already present on device's cache. If there is no cache yet, the default values will be returned from the getFlag function.

• ** func withTimeout(_ timeout:TimeInterval)->FSConfigBuilder**

Parameter	Type	Description
timeout	TimeInterval	Milliseconds, default value is 2000 ms

📘

The unit of measure for the timeout is Millisecond.

Log Level

• func withLogLevel(_ logLevel:FSLevel)->FSConfigBuilder

Specifies a log level to filter logs emitted by the SDK.

Parameter	Type	Description
level	FSLevel	The levels in ascending order are : NONE(0), EXCEPTIONS(1), ERROR(2), WARNING(3), DEBUG(4), INFO(5), ALL(6).

Decision Mode

DecisionApi

When the SDK is running in DecisionApi mode, the campaign assignments and targeting validation take place server-side. In this mode, each call to the fetchFlags method to refresh the flags will create an HTTP request.

Bucketing

When the SDK is running in BUCKETING mode, the SDK downloads all the campaigns configurations at once in a single bucketing file so that variation assignment can be computed client-side by the SDK. This bucketing file is stored in cache and will only be downloaded again when campaign configurations are modified in the Flagship interface. Learn more

📘

The default value is DECISION API

Polling Interval Time

Only available for Bucketing Mode:

• func withBucketingPollingIntervals(_ pollingTime:TimeInterval)->FSConfigBuilder

Define time interval between two bucketing updates. Default is 60 seconds.

Parameter	Type	Description
pollingTime	TimeInterval	interval time, default is 60 seconds.

Tracking Config Manager

func withTrackingManagerConfig(_ trackingMgrConfig: FSTrackingManagerConfig)->FSConfigBuilder

The SDK through the TrackingManager class report analytics event using batching process, each time a visitor emits a hit, the tracking manager will stack it in the event pool.

When the time interval batchIntervals is over or pool Maximum Size poolMaxSize is reached, the batch process is triggered and the pool emptied. In the meantime, the caching process depends on the cache strategy adopted.

The advantages:

• Use less network traffic

• Avoid data loss

• Catch all hits that would fail

The TrackingManager stand on three options to setup :

1. Time Interval Time interval to process and send event through batch

📘

The batchIntervals parameter is an integer, default value is 5 seconds

1. Pool Max Size Specifies the maximum number of hits in the pool

📘

The poolMaxSize parameter is an integer, default value is 10

1. Cache Strategy Define a strategy to adopt, we have two strategies represented by an enum BatchCachingStrategy.

1 - CONTINUOUS_CACHING

📘

Recommended for client-side applications

Each time a visitor emits an event, this strategy duplicates events in cache using cacheHit (see InterfaceCache), on completion batching process the saved hits are removed from the cache.

Note: The SDK has a default cache implementation using a database

2 - PERIODIC_CACHING

📘

Recommended for server-side applications

This strategy periodically make a copy in the cache of the existing event in the pool, those events will be removed once the batching process completed and succeed

// Create FSTrackingManagerConfig
// - Time Intreval : 20
// - Maximum size pool : 20
// - Strategy : BATCH_CONTINUOUS_CACHING
        
let trackingConfig = FSTrackingManagerConfig(poolMaxSize: 20, batchIntervalTimer: 20, strategy: .CONTINUOUS_CACHING)

// Create FlagshipConfig
let conf: FlagshipConfig = FSConfigBuilder().withTrackingConfig(trackingConfig).build()
        
// Start the SDK Flagship
Flagship.sharedInstance.start(envId: "your_env_id", apiKey: "your_api_key", config: conf)

Cache Management

Use a default cache Management provided by the SDK or create your own custom cache manager .

• func withCacheManager(_ customCacheManager:FSCacheManager)->FSConfigBuilder

Parameter	Type	Description
customCacheManager	FSCacheManager	Managing the cache

FSCacheManager

This class affords two protocols to handle the cache management.

• ** init(_ visitorCacheImp: FSVisitorCacheDelegate? = nil, _ hitCacheImp: FSHitCacheDelegate? = nil, visitorLookupTimeOut: TimeInterval = 0.2, hitCacheLookupTimeout: TimeInterval = 0.2)**

Parameter	Type	Default Value	Description
visitorCacheImp	Protocol	nil	class implementing visitor protocol , use FSDefaultCacheVisitor if nil
hitCacheImp	Protocol	nil	class implementing hit protocol, use FSDefaultCacheHit if nil
visitorLookupTimeOut	TimeInterval	200 ms	The time duration milliseconds given to lookup visitor, over this delay the operation is stopped
hitCacheLookupTimeout	TimeInterval	200 ms	The time duration milliseconds given to lookup hits, over this delay the operation is stopped

Developer Usage Tracking

• func withDisableDeveloperUsageTracking(_ disableDeveloperUsageTracking: Bool)->FSConfigBuilder

Parameter	Description	Type
disableDeveloperUsageTracking	Collects information about the usage of SDK. By default the value is set to false otherwise set to true to disable this feature.	Bool

// Create config and disabled usage tracking
let customConfig: FlagshipConfig = FSConfigBuilder().withDisableDeveloperUsageTracking(false).build()

// Start SDK
Flagship.sharedInstance.start(envId: "_ENV_ID_", apiKey: "_API_KEY_", config: customConfig)

SDK Status

List of the possible SDK status :

Status	Description
NOT_INITIALIZED	Flagship SDK has not been started or initialized successfully.
POLLING	Flagship SDK has been started successfully but is still polling campaigns. (Only when Bucketing mode is used)
PANIC	Flagship SDK is ready but is running in Panic mode: All visitor's features are disabled except 'fetchFlags' which refreshes this status.
READY	Flagship SDK is ready to use.

It is possible to get the current status via the method getStatus() from the Flagship class.

• func getStatus()->FStatus

  Return the current SDK status

onVisitorExposed

In some cases, you'll need to send informations about the exposition (When a flag has been seen by your visitor), like sending visitor and flag data to third parties.

To centralize it, we provide a callback in the configuration option of the SDK.

• ** func withOnVisitorExposed(_ onVisitorExposed: OnVisitorExposed)->FSConfigBuilder **

This callback is triggered each time:

• The visitorExposed() method is successfully called through the flag instance.

• The value() method is called through the flag instance with "true" as parameter (default).

The OnVisitorExposed callback is a function with two parameters

typealias OnVisitorExposed = ((_ visitorExposed: VisitorExposed, _ fromFlag: ExposedFlag)-> Void)?

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorExposed	FSVisitorExposed	This class represent the visitor exposed.
fromFlag	FSExposedFlag	This class represent the flag exposed. \n(The flag that has triggered the exposition)

• FSVisitorExposed

The class FSVisitorExposed give us the visitor's information

Parameter	Type	Description
id	String	VisitorId
anonymousId	String	anonymous id, used with Experience Continuity
context	Dictionary	The current visitor’s context

• FSExposedFlag

The class FSExposedFlag give us the flag's information

Parameter	Type	Description
key	String	key for flag
value	Any	value for flag
defaultValue	Any	default value
metadata	[FSFlagMetadata](#Getting flags campaigns metadata)	Campaign information metadata, this class already existed

For both class FSVisitorExposed & FSVisitorExposed use toJson() method to get the Json string representation and toDictionary() method to get a dictionary representation

// Inside the callBack we use toJson() method to get the json String representation.
// This block is a part of confuguration builder, for more information 
// go to #flagship-configuration-options section
.withOnVisitorExposed { fromFlag, visitorExposed in

            print(fromFlag.toJson() ?? "")
            print(visitorExposed.toJson() ?? "")
        }

FlagshipConfig * conf =  [[[[FSConfigBuilder alloc] init] withOnVisitorExposed:^(FSVisitorExposed * expoVisitor, FSExposedFlag * expoFlag) {
       NSLog(@"%@", [expoVisitor toJson]);
       NSLog(@"%@", [expoFlag toJson]);
        }] build];

}

📘 The onVisitorExposed callback is triggered ONLY when the visitorExpose() method is called and success.

Here is an example on how to use this callback:

• Example with Mixpanel integration

• Example with Segment integration

Create a new visitor

The visitor instance is an object that lets you manage the context, activate experiments and track events.

The user context is a property dataset that defines the current user of your app.

This dataset is sent and used by the Flagship Decision API as targeting criteria for campaign assignment.

For example, if you wanted to enable or disable a specific feature based on VIP status, you would pass that attribute as a key-value pair in the user context so that the Decision API can enable or disable the corresponding feature flag for the user.

import Flagship

let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1")
                .withContext(context: ["age" : 32, "isVip":true])
                .isAuthenticated(true)
                .hasConsented(hasConsented: true)
                .build()

@import Flagship; 

/// Create visitor with context age : 18 & isVip :YES
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" 
                           instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] 
                           withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18, @"isVip":@YES}] 
                           build];

• func newVisitor(_ visitorId:String, instanceType:Instance = .SHARED_INSTANCE)-> FSVisitorBuilder

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorId	String	Unique visitor identifier.
instanceType	Instance	How Flagship SDK should handle the newly created visitor instance. (Default is SINGLE_INSTANCE) \n \nSINGLE_INSTANCE : \nThe newly created visitor instance will be returned and saved into the Flagship singleton. Call Flagship.getVisitor() to retrieve the instance. \n \nNEW_INSTANCE: \nThe newly created visitor instance wont be saved and will simply be returned.

Visitor Builder methods :

• func withContext(context:[String:Any])->FSVisitorBuilder

Represent the visitor's initial context key/values used for targeting. Context keys must be String, and values types must be one of the following: Number, Boolean, String.

Parameter	Type	Description
context	[String:Any]	initial context

• func hasConsented(hasConsented:Bool)->FSVisitorBuilder

Specify if the visitor has consented to personal data usage. When false some features will be deactivated; the cache will be deactivated and cleared. The default value is true.

Parameter	Type	Description
hasConsented	Bool	true when user has given consent, false otherwise.

📘

The default value is true

• func isAuthenticated(_ autenticated:Bool)->FSVisitorBuilder

The visitorId will be considered as authenticated if true otherwise is anonymous.

Parameter	Type	Description
autenticated	Bool	true for authenticated user, false for anonymous.

📘

The default value is false

Updating the visitor context

The user context is a property dataset that defines the current user of your app.

This dataset is sent and used by the Flagship Decision API as targeting criteria for campaign assignment.

The following method from the Visitor instance allows you to set new context values matching the given keys.

import Flagship

let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1")
                .withContext(context: ["age" : 32, "isVip":true])
                .isAuthenticated(true)
                .hasConsented(hasConsented: true)
                .build()

// To check if Flagship have to make a decision with the data you are providing at the SDK init you should fetch the flags 
visitor1.fetchFlags {
   // Fetch completed , you can retreive your flags 
}

// Update the visitor context with lastPurchaseDate key and the value is 1615384464 
 visitor1.updateContext("lastPurchaseDate", 1615384464)

// Your visitor context has changed (you have updated it) you should fetch the flags to check if the decision has changed 
visitor1.fetchFlags {
   // Fetch completed , you can retreive your flags 
}

@import Flagship;

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

// Update context
// - isVip with true value
// - lastPurchaseDate with value 1615384464 in the user context
[visitor1 updateContext:@{@"lastPurchaseDate":@1615384464, @"isVip":@YES}];

• func updateContext(_ key:String, _ newValue:Any)

Upsert the visitor context values, matching the given keys, used for targeting. Only Integer, String, Boolean, Double typed values are accepted.

Parameter	Type	Description
key	String	Context key
newValue	Any	Context value

• func updateContext(_ context:[String:Any])

Update visitor context using dictionary which contain several keys/values

Parameter	Type	Description
context	[String:Any]	Only Integer, String, Boolean, Double typed values are accepted.

❗️

User context values must have a type of Integer, String, Boolean, Double.

• func updateContext(_ flagshipContext:FlagshipContext, _ value:Any)

flagshipContext	FlagshipContext	Predefined context key
value	Any	value of the associated Predefined key

import Flagship


let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1")
                .withContext(context: ["age" : 32, "isVip":true])
                .isAuthenticated(true)
                .hasConsented(hasConsented: true)
                .build()

// Update the visitor context with predefined key 
visitor1.updateContext(.CARRIER_NAME, "SFR")

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

/// Update the visitor context with predefined key 
[visitor1 updateContext:@{@"sdk_carrierName":@SFR];

• func clearContext() Clear all the visitor context values used for targeting.

import Flagship


let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1")
                .withContext(context: ["age" : 32, "isVip":true])
                .isAuthenticated(true)
                .hasConsented(hasConsented: true)
                .build()

// Clear the context 
visitor1.clearContext()

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

///Clear context
[visitor1 clearContext];

• func getContext()->[String:Any] Get visitor current context key / values.

import Flagship

let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1")
                .withContext(context: ["age" : 32, "isVip":true])
                .isAuthenticated(true)
                .hasConsented(hasConsented: true)
                .build()

// Get the current context for the visitor1
let currentContexct = visitor1.getCurrentContext()

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

///Get context
NSDictionary * context = [visitor1 getContext];

Managing visitor campaigns and their flags

Fetching Flags

The fetchFlags() method of the visitor instance automatically updates the campaign assignments according to the current user context and retrieves applicable flags.

• func fetchFlags(onFetchCompleted: @escaping ()-> Void)

This function will call the decision api and update all the campaigns flags from the server according to the visitor context.

Parameter	Type	Description
onFetchCompleted	Code	Block to execute once the sync is completed

import Flagship

// Create visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Update context
visitor1.updateContext("isVip", true)

// Fetch flags
visitor1.fetchFlags {
   // Fetch completed , you can retreive your flags 
}

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

/// Fetch flags
[visitor1 fetchFlagsOnFetchCompleted:^{
  // Fetch completed , you can retreive your flags 
}];

Getting flags

Once the campaign has been assigned and fetched, all the flags are stored in the SDK.

You can retrieve these flags using the following functions from the Visitor instance:

• func getFlag<T>(key:String, defaultValue : T?)->FSFlag

Retrieve a FSFlag object by its key. If no flag match the given key an empty flag will be returned. Call exists() to check if the flag has been found.

Parameter	Type	Description
key	String	key associated to the flag
defaultValue	T	flag default value

import Flagship


// Create the visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Fetch flags
visitor1.fetchFlags {
    // Ex: get flag for vip feature
    let flag = visitor1.getFlag(key: "displayVipFeature", defaultValue: false)
    // Use this flag to display the vip feature
}

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

/// Fetch flags
[visitor1 fetchFlagsOnFetchCompleted:^{
  // Ex: get flag for vip feature 
  FSFlag * flag = [visitor1 getFlagWithKey:@"displayVipFeature" defaultValue:FALSE];
  // Use this flag to enable displaying the vip feature
}];

🚧

Default value must be one of the following type : String, Boolean, Integer,Double Array, Dictionary.

Getting flags current values

To retrieve flag current value, simply call value() method of the Flag object.

• func value(visitorExposed: Bool = true)->Any?

Returns the value from the assigned campaign variation or the Flag default value if the Flag does not exist, or if types are different.

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
visitorExposed	Bool	true	Tells Flagship the user have been exposed and have seen this flag. This will increment the visits for the current variation on your campaign reporting. \nIf needed it is possible to set this param to false and call visitorExposed() afterward when the user has really been exposed to it.

import Flagship


// Create the visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Fetch flags
visitor1.fetchFlags {
    // Ex: get flag for vip feature
    let flag = visitor1.getFlag(key: "displayVipFeature", defaultValue: false)
  
    // Use this flag value to enable displaying the vip feature
    let shouldDisplayVipFeature = flag.value()
}

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

/// Fetch flags
[visitor1 fetchFlagsOnFetchCompleted:^{
  // Ex: get flag for vip feature 
  FSFlag * flag = [visitor1 getFlagWithKey:@"displayVipFeature" defaultValue:FALSE];
  // Use this flag value to enable displaying the vip feature
   BOOL shouldDisplayVipFeature = [flag valueWithUserExposed:YES];
}];

Getting flags campaigns metadata

You may need to send campaign's informations to a third-party for reporting and/or analytics purposes. The metadata method returns a dictionary with values you can use.

• func metadata()->FSFlagMetadata Return the campaign metadata or an empty object if the Flag doesn't exist or if the default value type does not correspond to the Flag type in Flagship.

import Flagship


// Create the visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Fetch flags
visitor1.fetchFlags {

    // Ex: get flag for vip feature
    let flag = visitor1.getFlag(key: "displayVipFeature", defaultValue: false)
  
    // Use this flag to get the metadata
    let metadata = flag.metadata()
    
    // Get the dictionary for metadata
    let campaign_info = metadata.toJson()
}

// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

// Fetch flags
[visitor1 fetchFlagsOnFetchCompleted:^{
  
  // Ex: get flag for vip feature 
  FSFlag * flag = [visitor1 getFlagWithKey:@"displayVipFeature" defaultValue:FALSE];
  
  // Use this flag to get the metadata
  FSFlagMetadata *metadata = [flag metadata];
  
  // Get the dictionary for metadata
  NSDictionary * campaign_info  = [metadata toJson]

}];

The metadata you can access to are the following one:

FSFlagMetadata	Type	Default value	Description
campaignId	String	""	id of the campaign
campaignName	String	""	Campaign name
variationGroupId	String	""	Id of the variation group
variationGroupName	String	""	Variation group name
variationId	String	""	id of the variation assigned
variationName	String	""	Variation name
isReference	Bool	false	if true that means the assigned variation is the reference, otherwise it's not.
campaignType	String	""	Type of the campaign. Ex: AB
slug	String	""	campaign slug or empty string if not configured in the platform

📘

To get the dictionary of metadata use the toJson method through the FSFlagMetadata instance.

Report a Flag exposition

By default when the method value() is called, the SDK considers that the user has seen your Flag unless you pass false to value(). In this last case, you will have to call the visitorExposed() method.

There are two options for exposing a user to a flag:

• Pass an visitorExposed=true parameter to the value() method.

• Use the following visitorExposed() method from the Flag instance.

• func visitorExposed()

import Flagship

// Create visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Update context
visitor1.updateContext("isVip", true)

// Fetch flags

   BOOL shouldDisplayVipFeature = [flag valueWithUserExposed:NO];
  
  
  // Expose this flag later in the code
   [flag userExposed];
}];

🚧

Deprecated

The userExposed() method is deprecated since the version 3.2.0 please use visitorExposed() instead.

Check if a Flag exists

• func exists()->Bool This method will return true if a Flag has been returned by Flagship.

import Flagship

// Create visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()

// Update context
visitor1.updateContext("isVip", true)

// Fetch flags
visitor1.fetchFlags {
    
    // Ex: get flag for vip feature and check if it exists
    let isDisplayVipFeatureExists = visitor1.getFlag(key:"do_not_exists", defaultValue:false).exists()
}

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

/// Fetch flags
[visitor1 fetchFlagsOnFetchCompleted:^{
  // Ex: get flag for vip feature and check if exist 
  BOOL isDisplayVipFeatureExists =  [[visitor1 getFlagWithKey:@"displayVipFeature" defaultValue:FALSE] exists];
}];

Managing visitor consent

The Visitor class provides a method to let you manage visitor consent for data privacy usage. When false, campaign activation and hits will be disabled and cache cleared.

• func setConsent(hasConsented:Bool)

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
hasConsented	Bool	true	Set visitor consent for private data usage. When false some features will be deactivated, cache will be deactivated and cleared.

import Flagship

// Create visitor
let visitor1 = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("visitor_1").build()
visitor1.setConsent(hasConsented: false)

/// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];
/// set the consent to NO 
[visitor1 setConsentWithHasConsented:NO];

🚧

When consent is not given:

• Hits and Activations will be deactivated

• All the cached visitor data will be cleared until consent is given again

• Only consent tracking requests will be sent in order to clear server-side cached data.

Managing visitor cache

By default, the Flagship iOS SDK provides a default cache manager implementation.

This feature helps to cache visitors' data, to cache non-sent hits due to internet failures or server errors, to cache campaign assignations for offline mode and to prevent reallocation in Bucketing mode.

Indeed as the assignation is made on a local device in bucketing mode, changing campaign allocation in the platform would make visitors see different variations if there's no cache.

The default cache manager uses a local database.

Custom Cache Manager

It's possible to provide a custom cache implementation using the following protocols

protocol FSVisitorCacheDelegate

This protocol specifies the methods to implement in order to cache visitors' information.

• func cacheVisitor(visitorId: String, _ visitorData: Data)

This method is called when the SDK needs to cache visitor information in your database.

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorId	String	Visitor unique identifier from which data need to be cached.
visitorData	Data	Visitor data to cache

• func lookupVisitor(visitorId: String) -> Data?

This method is invoked when the SDK needs to get visitor information from database. This method must to respect a time delay which is configurable.

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorId	String	Visitor unique identifier from which data need to be loaded.

Return visitor data respecting the expected format.

• func flushVisitor(visitorId: String)

This method is called when the SDK needs to flush visitor information in your database. For example, when the user hasn't given his consent this method will be called.

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorId	String	Visitor unique identifier from which data need to be cleared.

protocol FSHitCacheDelegate

This interface specifies the methods to implement in order to cache visitors' hits when they failed to be sent.

• func cacheHits(hits: [String: [String: Any]])

This method will be called to cache hits depending on the cache strategy used.

Parameter	Type	Description
hits	Dictionary	key is a unique Id for each hit \n \n- value is an Dictionary that represent hit

• func lookupHits() -> [String: [String: Any]]

This method will be called to load all hits present in database. This method have to respect a time duration, over this delay the operation is cancelled.

Parameter	Type	Description
return	Dictionary	key is a unique Id for each hit \n \n- value is an Dictionary that represent hit

• ** func flushHits(hitIds: [String])**

This method is called when the SDK needs to flush tracking hits in your database except the consent ones. For example when the user hasn't given his consent this method will be invoked.

Parameter	Type	Description
hitIds	Array	list of hit's id to remove from database

• func flushAllHits()

This method will be called to erase all hits in your database without exception.

// Implement the protocol FSVisitorCacheDelegate
public class CustomVisitorCache: FSVisitorCacheDelegate {
    public func cacheVisitor(visitorId: String, _ visitorData: Data) {
        // Save the Data that represent the information for visitorId
    }

    public func lookupVisitor(visitorId: String) -> Data? {
        // Return the saved data of visitorId
        return Data()
    }

    public func flushVisitor(visitorId: String) {
        // Remove the data for visitorId
    }
}

    public func cacheHits(hits: [String: [String: Any]]) {}

    // Return the saved hit in your database
    public func lookupHits() -> [String: [String: Any]] {
        return [:]
    }

    // Remove the hit's id given with List
    public func flushHits(hitIds: [String]) {}

    // Remove all hits in database
    public func flushAllHits() {}
}

Close

When your application is about to terminate, you can call the close method of Flagship class, by doing this, the batch process one last time before stop.

But don't worry if the close function is not invoked the data is stored in cache and will be processed on the next start

• func close()

// Process one last time the batch process then stop.
Flagship.sharedInstance.close()

// Close function to stop batch after processing one last time 
[[Flagship sharedInstance] close];

Experience Continuity

Dealing with anonymous and logged-in users, experience continuity allows you to maintain consistency between sessions and devices.

🚧

Make sure that the experience continuity option is enabled on the flagship platform before using those methods.

Authenticate

There are 2 ways to authenticate a visitor:

1. Set key isAuthenticated to true when creating a new visitor

2. Use authenticate method of Visitor instance

Authenticate anonymous visitor

func authenticate(visitorId:String)

Parameter	Type	Description
visitorId	String	id of the new authenticated visitor.

🚧

Because we have changed the visitor data, we have to call the fetchFlags method after calling this one to update the decision from Flagship.

The targeting / Flags could be different for the visitor.

Unauthenticate

This function change authenticated Visitor to anonymous visitor

func unauthenticate()

🚧

Because we have changed the visitor datas, we have to call the fetchFlags method after calling this one to update the decision from Flagship.

The targeting / Flags could be different for the visitor.

Code example

Let's assume basic scenario to understand how things work:

1. Your visitor arrives on your app for the first time.

We need to initialize the visitor but as we don't know anything about this visitor, we'll create a random_Id. You can also specify some visitor context if necessary.

// Create visitor with random_Id 
let visitor = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("random_Id").withContext(context: ["key": 
               "value"]).build()

// Create visitor
FSVisitor * visitor1 = [[[[Flagship sharedInstance] newVisitor:@"visitor_1" instanceType:InstanceSHARED_INSTANCE] withContextWithContext:@{@"age":@18} ] build];

// Once the visitor log-in and is authenticated on your app.
[visitor1 authenticateWithVisitorId:@"visitor_id"];

// Once the visitor log-out and is unauthenticed on your app.
[visitor1 unauthenticate];

The actual random_Id will be what we call the _anonymous id_.

1. Your visitor is signing in.

To tell the SDK about this status modification, you'll have to call the authenticate function which takes the required visitor id as argument.

// Example
// You fetch the visitor_id from your DB
// let visitorId = db.getUserId();

// Authenticate
visitor.authenticate(visitorId: "visitorId")

// Since your visitor has changed (is now logged-in)
// You have to check if the proper targeting and flags are set

visitor.fetchFlags {

    // ... Do things ....
}

The visitor is updated as authenticated, keeping the previous variations from campaigns that are still matched and thus gives you same flags as before being logged in.

📘

Keep in mind that if the visitor also has its context changed, you might still have changes on flags as your visitor might target new campaigns.

1. Your visitor decides to sign out.

If you want to keep the same visitor experience, then you should do:

// Unauthenticate
visitor.unauthenticate()

// Since your visitor has changed (is now logged-out)
// You have to check if the proper targeting and flags are set

visitor.fetchFlags{
  
   // ... Do things ....
}

Final implementation example

// Create a visitor

let visitor = Flagship.sharedInstance.newVisitor("randomId").withContext(context: ["key": "value"]).build()

// Call the authenticate function

visitor.authenticate(visitorId: "visitorId");

// Fetch the flags to update the visitor decision

visitor.fetchFlags(){
    
    // ... Do things ....
}

// If you want to unauthenticate the visitor

visitor.unauthenticate()

// Fetch the flags to update the visitor decision

visitor.fetchFlags{

    // ... Do things ....
}

Hit Tracking

Appendix

Predefined user context keys

The Flagship SDK contains predefined user context keys.

The keys marked as Yes in the Auto-set by SDK column will be automatically set, while the ones marked as No need to be set by the client.

They are nevertheless overridable at anytime. Then these predefined context keys-value pairs will be sent to the server and be editable in the Persona section of the Flagship platform.

SDK Variable name	Description	Context Variable name	Type	Auto-set by SDK	Example
FIRST_TIME_INIT	First init of the app	sdk_firstTimeInit	Boolean	Yes	true (false if the init isn’t the first one)
