This tutorial mainly introduces how to implement a basic audio and video call with Objective-C.

Prerequisites

Xcode 13.0 or later.
A Mac computer with OS X 10.10 or later.
A valid developer signature for your project.

Integration guideline

Step 1. Import TRTC SDK

1. Run the following command in a terminal window to install CocoaPods. If you have installed CocoaPods, skip this step.
sudo gem install cocoapods
2. In the terminal window, go to the project root directory and run the following command to create the Podfile for your project.
pod init
3. Edit and save the Podfile as follows.
platform :osx, '10.10'

# Modify the 'Your Target' to the name of your project
target 'Your Target' do
pod 'TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC_Mac', :podspec => 'https://liteav.sdk.qcloud.com/pod/liteavsdkspec/TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC_Mac.podspec'
end
4. In the terminal window, run the following command to update the local library files and download the TRTC SDK.
pod install
Note:
After the pod install executed, a new .xcworkspace project file is generated. Double-click the .xcworkspace file to open it.

Step 2. Configure project

1. Once the .xcworkspace file opened, click on the Project Navigator on the left in the Xcode navigation bar, click on your project name, and make sure you select the correct TARGETS in the edit area.
2. In the General TAB, add TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC_Mac.xcframework and ScreenCaptureKit.framework tto the the Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content section.



3. In the Build Settings TAB, search for User Script Sandboxing and set its value to No, which could allow the user script access to a wider range of system resources and files.



4. In the the Info.plist TAB, add the Privacy-Microphone Usage Description and Privacy-Microphone Usage Description, and fill in the target prompt words used by the Microphone/Camera to obtain the permission to use the microphone and camera.



5. In the Signing & Capabilities TAB, check the following in the App Sandbox section.




Step 3. Create TRTC instance

1. Import the TRTC SDK in the AppDelegate.h file.
@import TXLiteAVSDK_TRTC_Mac; // Import TRTC SDK Module
2. Declare the TRTCCloud property in the AppDelegate.h file.
@property (nonatomic, strong) TRTCCloud *trtcCloud; // Declare the TRTCCloud property
3. After entering the AppDelegate.m file, call sharedInstance to create the TRTC instance in the applicationDidFinishLaunchingmethod and set up the event listener.
#import <UserNotifications/UserNotifications.h> // Import the UserNotifications framework

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification {
    // Create a TRTC instance and set up a listener
    _trtcCloud = [TRTCCloud sharedInstance];
    _trtcCloud.delegate = self;
}

// Listen for the 'onError' event
- (void)onError:(TXLiteAVError)errCode
         errMsg:(nullable NSString *)errMsg
        extInfo:(nullable NSDictionary *)extInfo{
    // Handle the 'onError' event
    // Recommend to request notification permission for OnError information as followings
    
    // Create a user notification center instance
    NSString *tip = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Error Code: %ld, Message: %@", (long)errCode, errMsg];  
    // Request notification authority
    UNUserNotificationCenter *center = [UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter];
    [center requestAuthorizationWithOptions:(UNAuthorizationOptionAlert | UNAuthorizationOptionSound)
                              completionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError * _Nullable error) {
                                  if (granted) {
                                      // Create notification content
                                      UNMutableNotificationContent *content = [[UNMutableNotificationContent alloc] init];
                                      content.title = @"RTC Error";
                                      content.body = tip;                                   

                                      // Create notification trigger
                                      UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger *trigger = [UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger triggerWithTimeInterval:5 repeats:NO];
                                      
                                      // Create notification request
                                      UNNotificationRequest *request = [UNNotificationRequest requestWithIdentifier:@"RTCErrorNotification" content:content trigger:trigger];                                 

                                      // Add notifications to the Notification Center
                                      [center addNotificationRequest:request withCompletionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) {
                                          if (error != nil) {
                                              NSLog(@"Error adding notification: %@", error);
                                          }
                                      }];
                                  }
                              }];
}

Step 4. Enter the room

Set the entry parameter TRTCParams and call enterRoom to successfully enter the room, which is usually called after clicking the Start Call button.
Parameter
Type
Description
sdkAppId
number
The sdkAppId of the audio and video application you created in TRTC Console.
userId
string
User ID specified by you.
userSig
string
User signature, refer to UserSig .
roomId
number
Room ID specified by you, usually a unique room ID.
For more detailed parameter descriptions, please refer to the interface document enterRoom .
#import "AppDelegate.h" // Import the "AppDelegate.h" file

-(void)enterRoom {
    // Modify the following parameters to your own
    TRTCParams *trtcParams = [[TRTCParams alloc] init];
    trtcParams.sdkAppId = 1400000123;
    trtcParams.userId = @"denny";
    trtcParams.userSig = @"";
    trtcParams.roomId = 123321;
    
    // For multi-party video calls, `TRTC_APP_SCENE_LIVE` is recommended
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud enterRoom:trtcParams appScene:TRTCAppSceneLIVE];
}

// Listen for the 'onEnterRoom' event
- (void)onEnterRoom:(NSInteger)result {
    // Handle the 'onEnterRoom' event
    if (result > 0) {
        [self toastTip:@"Enter room succeed!"];
    } else {
        [self toastTip:@"Enter room failed!"];
    }
}

// Implement the 'toastTip'
- (void)toastTip:(NSString *)tip {
    NSAlert *alert = [[NSAlert alloc] init];
    [alert setMessageText:tip];
    [alert runModal];
}

Step 5. Turn on/off Camera

1. Declare the NSWindow and NSView properties in the ViewController.h file.
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSWindow *window; // Declare the NSWindow property
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSView *localCameraVideoView; // Declare the NSView property
2. Initialize the localCameraVideoView and set the rendering parameter setLocalRenderParams for local preview, then call startLocalPreview for local preview. After successfully calling enterRoom, the stream push will start.
-(void) startLocalPreview {
    // Create a window
    self.window = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithContentRect:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 800, 600) styleMask:NSWindowStyleMaskTitled | NSWindowStyleMaskClosable | NSWindowStyleMaskMiniaturizable | NSWindowStyleMaskResizable backing:NSBackingStoreBuffered defer:NO];
    [self.window center];
    [self.window setTitle:@"TRTCDemo_Mac"];
    [self.window makeKeyAndOrderFront:nil];
    self.window.releasedWhenClosed = NO;

    // Initialize localCameraVideoView
    self.localCameraVideoView = [[NSView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 300, 300)];
    [self.window.contentView addSubview:self.localCameraVideoView];

    // Adjust the localCameraVideoView frame
    self.localCameraVideoView.frame = self.window.contentView.bounds;

    // Set local preview rendering parameters
    TRTCRenderParams *trtcRenderParams = [[TRTCRenderParams alloc] init];
    trtcRenderParams.fillMode   = TRTCVideoFillMode_Fill;
    trtcRenderParams.mirrorType = TRTCVideoMirrorTypeAuto;

    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud setLocalRenderParams:trtcRenderParams];

    // Preview the collected content locally 
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalPreview:self.localCameraVideoView];
}
Call stopLocalPreview to turn off the camera preview and stop pushing local video information.
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud stopLocalPreview];

Step 6. Turn on/off microphone

Call the startLocalAudio to turn on microphone capture. Select one of the following sound Quality parameters according to your requirements.
// Enable microphone acquisition and set the current scene to: Voice mode 
// For high noise suppression capability, strong and weak network resistance
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalAudio:TRTCAudioQualitySpeech];
// Enable microphone acquisition, and set the current scene to: Music mode 
// For high fidelity acquisition, low sound quality loss, recommended to use with professional sound cards
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud startLocalAudio:TRTCAudioQualityMusic];
Call stopLocalAudio to turn off microphone collection and stop pushing local audio information.
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud stopLocalAudio];

Step 7. Play/stop video streaming

1. Listen to onUserVideoAvailable before entering the room. When you receive the onUserVideoAvailable(userId, true) notification, it means that there are video frames available to play in the road screen.
2. Set the render parameter setLocalRenderParams and call startRemoteView to play the video content collected by the remote side.
- (void)startRemotePreview {
    /// Play the remote side's video
    AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
    [appDelegate.trtcCloud startRemoteView:@"denny" streamType:TRTCVideoStreamTypeBig view:self.localCameraVideoView];
}
Call stopRemoteView to stop the remote video.
// Stop the video
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud stopRemoteView:@"denny"]; // Only stop denny's video
[appDelegate.trtcCloud stopAllRemoteView]; // Stop all videos

Step 8. Play/stop the audio stream

Call muteRemoteAudio to mute or unmute the remote side's sound.
// Mute
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud muteRemoteAudio:@"denny" mute:YES]; // Only mute denny

[appDelegate.trtcCloud muteAllRemoteAudio:YES]; // Mute all remote users
// Unmute
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud muteRemoteAudio:@"denny" mute:NO]; // Only unmute denny

[appDelegate.trtcCloud muteAllRemoteAudio:NO]; // Unmute all remote users

Step 9. Exit the room

Call exitRoom to exit the current room, and the TRTC SDK will notify you after check-out via the onExitRoom callback event.
// Exit current room
AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[NSApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[appDelegate.trtcCloud exitRoom];

// Listen for the onExitRoom callback to find out why you checked out
- (void)onExitRoom:(NSInteger)reason {
    if (reason == 0) {
        NSLog(@"Exit current room by calling the 'exitRoom' api of sdk ...");
    } else if (reason == 1) {
        NSLog(@"Kicked out of the current room by server through the restful api...");
    } else if (reason == 2) {
        NSLog(@"Current room is dissolved by server through the restful api...");
    }
}
