iOS Plugin : disable Plot

[Alexandre LocowL]

Hi,

I would like not to enable Plot at the launch of my app, because the user isn't yet logged in.

So I do this :

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

{

    [Plot initializeWithLaunchOptions:launchOptions delegate:self];

    if ([[Divers getAccount] token] != nil)

    {

        NSLog(@"enable");

        [Plot enable];

    }

    else

    {

        NSLog(@"disable");

        [Plot disable];

    }

[....]

}

Here's what happens :

2015-10-16 10:54:23.796 BonsPlans[23953:1864909] disable

2015-10-16 10:54:23.797 BonsPlans[23953:1864909] Plot| Plot disabled

2015-10-16 10:54:23.823 BonsPlans[23953:1864990] Plot| Plot enabled

Is it normal ?

Thanks,

Alexandre

Hi Alexandre,

Our plugin will be enabled by default and is initialized in a separate thread, so it is possible that you see this race condition. Have you seen the "enableOnFirstRun" parameter in the configuration file (documentation)? If you set it to false you will get the expected behaviour. Furthermore I think it would be a good idea to not call [Plot disable] during the start of your app (since it is disabled by default when you set "enableOnFirstRun" to false) and call it when you want Plot to stop working (e.g. when your user logs out).

Does this answer your question?

Kind regards,

Jan-Pieter

Hi Jan-Pieter,

I had already tried to set enableOnFirstRun parameter to false.

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

{    

    [Plot initializeWithLaunchOptions:launchOptions delegate:self];

[...]

}

Here is the plogconfig.json :

{

"publicToken": "XXXXXXXX",

"enableOnFirstRun": false

}

Here is the logs : 

2015-10-19 15:43:40.559 BonsPlans[14511:4396727] Plot| Plot enabled

Hi Alexandre,

After calling Enable or Disable Plot will remember the setting, even when the app is restarted. After a restart Plot will remain enabled or disabled. EnableOnFirstRun only affects the first time after the app has been installed.

Because Plot has to run in the background we recommend just enabling Plot after the first login and then keep Plot enabled. When doing this in didFinishLaunching race conditions could be created, thus we recommend to move this to the view where the user logs in or out.

Will this work for you?

Kind regards,

It seems to work.
