Using Kakaoadsdk Features
Kakaoadsdk provides several features that you can use in your app. Below, you’ll find examples of how to use some of these features:
Social Login
Kakaoadsdk allows users to log in to your app using their Kakao account. To implement social login, you can use the following code:
# Perform Kakao login
KakaoSDKAuth.shared.loginWithKakaoAccount { (oauthToken, error) in
if let error = error {
// Handle login error
print("Login error: \(error)")
} else {
// Login success, handle user authentication
print("Login successful!")
}
}
Sharing Content
With Kakaoadsdk, you can allow users to share content from your app to KakaoTalk or other Kakao services. Use the code below to implement content sharing:
# Create a custom KakaoTalkLinkObject
let linkObject = KMTLinkObject()
linkObject.text = "Check out this amazing app!"
# Create a custom KakaoTalkTemplate
let template = KMTTemplate.defaultTemplate()
template.link = linkObject
# Send the shared content to KakaoTalk
KakaoTalkService.shared.sendLink(template) { (error) in
if let error = error {
// Handle sharing error
print("Sharing error: \(error)")
} else {
// Sharing success
print("Content shared successfully!")
}
}
Messaging
If you want to allow users to send messages to their Kakao friends using your app, you can use Kakaoadsdk’s messaging feature. Use the code sample below to implement messaging:
# Create a custom KakaoTalkMessageBuilder
let builder = KMTMessageBuilder()
builder.text = "Hey, let's chat on KakaoTalk!"
# Add friends to chat with
builder.addFriends(["friend1", "friend2"])
# Send the message
KakaoTalkService.shared.sendMessage(builder.build()) { (success, error) in
if let error = error {
// Handle messaging error
print("Messaging error: \(error)")
} else {
// Message sent successfully
print("Message sent successfully!")
}
}
