Thanks for asking! We love pull requests from everyone. Depending on what you want to do, you can help us improve Linphone in various ways:
We no longer use transifex for the translation process, instead we have deployed our own instance of Weblate.
Due to the full app rewrite we can't re-use previous translations, so we'll be very happy if you want to contribute.
If you want to dig through Linphone code or report a bug, please read CONTRIBUTING.md first. You should also read this README entirely ;-).

Now the default way of building linphone-iphone is to use CocoaPods to retrieve the linphone-sdk frameworks. Compared to previous versions, this project no longer uses submodules developper has to build in order to get a working app. However, if you wish to use a locally compiled SDK, read paragraph "Using a local linphone SDK" below to know how to proceed.
If you don't have CocoaPods already, you can download and install it using :
sudo gem install cocoapods
If you alreadly have Cocoapods, make sur that the version is higher than 1.7.5.
- Install the app's dependencies with cocoapods first:
pod install
It will download the linphone-sdk from our gitlab repository so you don't have to build anything yourself.
- Then open
linphone.xcworkspacefile (NOT linphone.xcodeproj) with XCode to build and run the app.
- Video capture will not work in simulator (not implemented in it).
- Clone the linphone-sdk repository from out gitlab:
git clone https://gitlab.linphone.org/BC/public/linphone-sdk.git --recursive
-
Follow the instructions in the linphone-sdk/README file to build the SDK.
-
Rebuild the project:
PODFILE_PATH=<path to linphone-sdk-ios> pod install
where is your build directory of the linphone-sdk project, containing the linphone-sdk.podspec file and a linphone-sdk ouptut directory comprising built frameworks and resources.
- Then open linphone.xcworkspace with Xcode to build and run the app.
We've integrated Crashlytics into liphone-iphone, which can automatically send crash reports. It is disabled by default. To activate it:
-
Replace the GoogleService-Info.plist for this project with yours (specific to your crashlytics account).
-
Rebuild the project:
USE_CRASHLYTICS=true pod install
- Then open
linphone.xcworkspacewith Xcode to build and run the app.
