如何在iOS的静态库中添加.json文件？

Question

我的.json文件包含一些机密设置，我想将其包含在静态库中。但是在提供我的静态库时，我只想向客户端提供静态库的.a文件，我不会让他们使用拖动为了使用其功能而使用drop方法。如何在.a静态文件中添加.json文件？

Answer 1

You cannot place any resource file inside .a file. Best option is to make a bundle file and keep the json file inside it. But then the your client can see those file if he wants to.

If confidentiality is a matter, another option is to create a class that returns this json as NSString.

For example :

@interface LibraryHelper

+ (NSString *)jsonConfig;

@end

@implemenatation LibraryHelper

+ (NSString *)jsonConfig {
  NSString *json = @"<your json string hard coded>";

}

@end

If you don't want to have the developer drag another file in along with the .a binary then you need to compile the json file into the binary itself - as a string then parsed at runtime.

Having said this, if you just need a few config params then you'd be better off just putting the values directly into variables.

Also check out iOS .framework bundles in Xcode 6, they provide a nice way to group your binary, header files and any additional resource files. In the Xcode 6 new project window choose Frameworks & Library > Cocoa Touch Framework.
