This is the main class of the mParticle SDK. It interfaces your app with the mParticle API so you can report and measure the many different metrics of your app.

Usage:

Swift


let mParticle = MParticle.sharedInstance()

– setIntegrationAttributes:forKit:

Set the integration attributes for a given integration ID.

- (MPKitExecStatus *)setIntegrationAttributes:(NSDictionary<NSString*,NSString*> *)attributes forKit:(NSNumber *)integrationId

Parameters

attributes

a dictionary of attributes that will replace any current attributes. The keys are predefined by mParticle. Please consult with the mParticle docs or your solutions consultant for the correct value. You may also pass a null or empty map here to remove all of the attributes.

integrationId

mParticle integration ID. This may be the ID for a kit, or any mParticle integration.

Discussion

Set the integration attributes for a given integration ID.

Integration attributes are keys and values specific to a given integration. For example, many integrations have their own internal user/device ID. mParticle will store integration attributes for a given device, and will be able to use these values for server-to-server communication to services. This is often useful when used in combination with a server-to-server feed, allowing the feed to be enriched with the necessary integration attributes to be properly forwarded to the given integration.

– isKitActive:

Returns whether a kit is active or not. You can retrieve if a kit has been already initialized and can be used.

- (BOOL)isKitActive:(NSNumber *)integrationId

Parameters

integrationId

An NSNumber representing the kit to be checked

Return Value

Whether the kit is active or not.

Discussion

Returns whether a kit is active or not. You can retrieve if a kit has been already initialized and can be used.

Declared In

mParticle.h

– kitInstance:

Retrieves the internal instance of a kit, for cases where you need to use properties and methods of that kit directly.

- (nullable id const)kitInstance:(NSNumber *)integrationId

Parameters

integrationId

An NSNumber representing the kit to be retrieved

Return Value

The internal instance of the kit, or nil, if the kit is not active

Discussion

Retrieves the internal instance of a kit, for cases where you need to use properties and methods of that kit directly.

This method is only applicable to kits that allocate themselves as an object instance or as a singleton. For the cases where kits are implemented with class methods, you can call those class methods directly

– kitInstance:completionHandler:

Asynchronously retrieves the internal instance of a kit, for cases where you need to use properties and methods of that kit directly.

- (void)kitInstance:(NSNumber *)kitCode completionHandler:(void ( ^ ) ( id _Nullable kitInstance ))completionHandler

Parameters

kitCode

An NSNumber representing the kit to be retrieved

completionHandler

A block to be called if or when the kit instance becomes available. If the kit never becomes active, the block will never be called. If the kit is class based, the instance will be nil

– incrementSessionAttribute:byValue:

Increments the value of a session attribute by the provided amount. If the key does not exist among the current session attributes, this method will add the key to the session attributes and set the value to the provided amount. If the key already exists and the existing value is not a number, the operation will abort.

- (nullable NSNumber *)incrementSessionAttribute:(NSString *)key byValue:(NSNumber *)value

Parameters

key

The attribute key

value

The increment amount

Return Value

The static value @0

Discussion

Increments the value of a session attribute by the provided amount.
