Apart from the general `BUILDING.md` there are certain things that have to be done by Signal-iOS maintainers. For transperancy and bus factor, they are outlined here. ## Dependencies Keeping cocoapods based dependencies is easy enough. `pod update` ### WebRTC We don't currently have an automated build (cocoapod/carthage) setup for the WebRTC.framework. Instead, read the WebRTC upstream source and build setup instructions here: https://webrtc.org/native-code/ios/ Once you have your build environment set up and the WebRTC source downloaded: # The specific set of commands that worked for me were somewhat different. # 1. Install depot tools cd git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git cd depot_tools export PATH=/depot_tools:"$PATH" # 2. Fetch webrtc source cd mkdir webrtc cd webrtc fetch --nohooks webrtc_ios gclient sync # 3. Build webrtc # NOTE: build_ios_libs.sh only worked for me from inside "src" cd src webrtc/build/ios/build_ios_libs.sh # NOTE: It's Carthage/Build/iOS, not Carthage/Builds mv out_ios_libs/WebRTC.framework ../../Signal-iOS/Carthage/Build/iOS/ ## Translations Read more about translations in [TRANSLATIONS.md](signal/translations/TRANSLATIONS.md)
