Open Video Call for MacOS (Swift)

English | 中文

This tutorial describes how to add video chat to your MacOS applications using Swift and the Agora Video SDK.

With this sample app, you can:

  • Join/leave a channel
  • Mute/unmute audio
  • Enable/disable video
  • Switch camera views
  • Screen sharing
  • Enable/disable image enhancement
  • Play/stop music
  • Set up the resolution, the frame rate display

Prerequisites

  • Xcode 10.0+

Quick Start

This section shows you how to prepare, build, and run the sample application.

Obtain an App Id

To build and run the sample application, get an App Id:

  1. Create a developer account at agora.io. Once you finish the signup process, you will be redirected to the Dashboard.

  2. Navigate in the Dashboard tree on the left to Projects > Project List.

  3. Save the App Id from the Dashboard for later use.

  4. Generate a temp Access Token (valid for 24 hours) from dashboard page with given channel name, save for later use.

  5. Open OpenVideoCall.xcodeproj and edit the KeyCenter.swift file. In the agoraKit declaration, update <#Your App Id#> with your App Id, and assign the token variable with the temp Access Token generated from dashboard.

    static let AppId: String = <#Your App Id#>
// assign token to nil if you have not enabled app certificate
static var Token: String? = <#Temp Access Token#>

To ensure communication security, Agora uses tokens (dynamic keys) to authenticate users joining a channel.

Temporary tokens are for demonstration and testing purposes only and remain valid for 24 hours. In a production environment, you need to deploy your own server for generating tokens. See [Generate a Token](https://docs.agora.io/en/Interactive Broadcast/token_server)for details.

Integrate the Agora Video SDK

  1. Download the Agora Video SDK. Unzip the downloaded SDK package and copy the following files from the SDK libs folder into the sample application OpenVideoCall folder.

    • AograRtcKit.framework
    • AgoraRtcCryptoLoader.framework
    • libcrypto.a

  2. Open Xcode and run this project.
