Dependencies

This guide walks you through adding the Virtual Stadium iOS SDK to your project. The SDK is distributed through Swift Package Manager and includes both the Data SDK and UI SDK as integrated dependencies.

#Current Version

#Swift Package Manager Configuration

The Virtual Stadium SDK is hosted on GitHub and can be added to your project using Swift Package Manager (SPM). The UI SDK automatically includes the Data SDK as a dependency.

#Adding the Package

You can add the Virtual Stadium SDK to your project in two ways:

#Option 1: Xcode UI (Recommended)

1. Open your project in Xcode
2. Go to File → Add Package Dependencies...
3. Enter the repository URL:

   https://github.com/sportradar/VirtualStadium-SDK-UI

4. Select the version rule:
   • Up to Next Major Version (recommended for stability)
   • Or specify an exact version from the releases page
5. Click Add Package
6. Select the VirtualStadiumUISDK product to add to your target
7. Click Add Package

#Option 2: Package.swift

If you're developing a Swift package, add the dependency to your Package.swift: Package.swift:

// swift-tools-version: 5.9
import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
    name: "YourApp",
    dependencies: [
        // Virtual Stadium UI SDK
        .package(
            url: "https://github.com/sportradar/VirtualStadium-SDK-UI",
            from: "1.0.0"  // Replace with latest version
        )
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(
            name: "YourApp",
            dependencies: [
                .product(name: "VirtualStadiumUISDK", package: "VirtualStadium-SDK-UI")
            ]
        )
    ]
)

#Importing the SDK

After adding the package, import the SDK in your Swift files:

import VirtualStadiumUISDK

#Minimum Requirements

The Virtual Stadium iOS SDK has the following minimum requirements:

#Project Configuration

Ensure your project meets these requirements: Project Settings:

// In Xcode, verify:
// 1. General → Deployment Info → iOS Deployment Target: 14.0 or higher
// 2. Build Settings → Swift Language Version: Swift 5 or higher

For projects using Package.swift, ensure your platform requirement is set: Package.swift:

let package = Package(
    name: "YourApp",
    platforms: [
        .iOS(.v14)  // iOS 14.0 minimum
    ],
    // ...
)
