iOS Code Obfuscation

iOS SDK Obfuscation

To initialise the SDK add the below line of code with the public key you retrieved from Sense client panel. If you don't have a public key create new one and call that below function.

Summary

The obfuscation implementation code is available on the Sense Server. Before running obfuscation on the Swift project, please review the code carefully for any syntax errors and ensure that standard coding practices are followed. The obfuscation process will programmatically obfuscate the project. Therefore, it is important to maintain proper coding standards.

Obfuscation Process

The Sense team will provide a bash script for obfuscation.
Create a .sh file inside the project directory (for example: sense_obfuscator.sh).
In the obfuscator script, add the Basic Authentication credentials by pasting the Public Key and Secret Key provided in the Client Panel.
Open the terminal and navigate to the project directory.
Run the following command:
```
sh sense_obfuscator.sh
```
The Sense script will take responsibility for the process, obfuscate the project files, and display a completion indicator once the process is finished.
Then check the final obfuscator project files

Note

Please ensure that a backup of the project is taken before running the obfuscation process. The obfuscator will also create a backup before executing the obfuscation.
