Chirp
The easiest way to prepare, play, and remove sounds in your Swift app!
##Installation ###CocoaPods Installation Chirp is available on CocoaPods. Just add the following to your project Podfile:
pod 'Chirp', '~> 1.2'
###Non-CocoaPods Installation You can drop Chirp.swift directly into your project, or drag the Chirp project into your workspace.
Sample code
prepareSound is used to preload a sound into memory. This increases the retain count of the sound by 1. You must call this method before calling playSound
/* MyViewController.swift */
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Load sounds into memory
Chirp.sharedManager.prepareSound("boop") // default extension is .wav
Chirp.sharedManager.prepareSound("ding.mp3") // so other extensions you must name explicitly
}
playSound plays the preloaded sound
func submitButtonTouched(button: UIButton) {
// Since the sound is already loaded into memory, this will play immediately
Chirp.sharedManager.playSound("boop")
// example function that might get called when you touch a button
submitForm()
}
removeSound removes the sound from memory
deinit {
// Cleanup is really simple!
Chirp.sharedManager.removeSound("boop")
Chirp.sharedManager.removeSound("ding.mp3")
Chirp.sharedManager.removeSound("oops.mp3")
// If you never loaded the sounds, e.g. viewDidLoad wasn't called, or submission never failed or succeeded,
// that's ok, because these will function as no-ops
}
Enjoy! I know sound management can be a little annoying. Hopefully this helps your project out a little bit.
