Mobile SDK — Integration Guide (iOS + Android)
The Score mobile tracker is one Kotlin Multiplatform core shipped as a native
iOS framework (ScoreTrackerKit, fronted by the Swift ScoreClient facade)
and a native Android AAR. It emits the same event envelope as the web
tracker (@3halves-labs/score-tracker), so app events fire challenges/goals
identically — see conformance/CONTRACT.md.
Install — 0.3.0 beta (public, no auth)
Distributed publicly from 3HL-SCORE/public-sdks-score (#284) — no Gitea token / login required. The iOS XCFramework is a public release asset (mobile-v0.3.0) on that repo; the Android artifacts live in the org's Gitea Maven package registry (anonymous read).
Android — Gradle (public Maven registry)
repositories {
maven { url = uri("https://git.3halves-labs.com/api/packages/3HL-SCORE/maven") } // public — no credentials
}
dependencies {
implementation("com.threehalveslabs.scoretracker:shared-android:0.3.0")
}
iOS — CocoaPods (public release asset)
pod 'ScoreTracker',
:podspec => 'https://git.3halves-labs.com/3HL-SCORE/public-sdks-score/raw/branch/main/ScoreTracker.podspec'
iOS — Swift Package Manager (public git URL)
The SPM package lives at the root of the public public-sdks-score repo, so
add it by git URL — no registry config, no login:
// your app's Package.swift
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://git.3halves-labs.com/3HL-SCORE/public-sdks-score.git", from: "0.3.0")
],
// target: .product(name: "ScoreTracker", package: "public-sdks-score")
Or in Xcode: File → Add Packages… → paste the URL. The binary ScoreTrackerKit
target pulls the XCFramework from the public mobile-v0.3.0 release asset (SPM
verifies the checksum) — no ~/.netrc credentials needed. Verified with an
anonymous swift package resolve.
iOS — direct XCFramework
Download ScoreTracker-pod.zip from the mobile-v0.3.0 release on
public-sdks-score.
It holds ScoreTrackerKit.xcframework and the Swift facade sources
(Sources/ScoreTracker/: ScoreClient.swift, Exports.swift, AppLifecycle.swift).
Drag the .xcframework into your Xcode project and add the Swift files to your app target.
iOS (Swift)
import ScoreTracker // the Swift facade (wraps the ScoreTrackerKit framework)
let score = ScoreClient(
publishableKey: "pk_live_…",
siteId: "urc-ios",
endpoint: "https://<middleware-host>",
appVersion: Bundle.main.shortVersion,
os: "iOS \(UIDevice.current.systemVersion)",
device: UIDevice.current.model,
locale: Locale.current.identifier
)
// Nothing sends until consent is granted (see Consent below).
score.grantAllConsent()
// Track app earning events with the generated `Events` taxonomy (preferred):
// the wire name and its consent `requires` come from the shared schema, so iOS,
// Android and web emit byte-identical events (#206, #485).
score.track(Events.shared.PollVote, props: ["pollId": "motm-r12", "choice": "player_7"])
// …or by name, for an event not in `Events`. `requires:` gates it on consent.
score.track("custom_badge_tap", props: ["badgeId": "b1"], requires: [.analytics])
score.screen("match_centre")
// Flush is async; the SDK also auto-flushes (see Offline & flushing)
Task { try? await score.flush() }
The envelope's
sdk.nameandsdk.versionare baked into the build:…-iosor…-androidfrom the platform, and the version from the release (#486). There's nothing to pass. Read them withScoreClient.sdkName/ScoreClient.sdkVersion(Swift) orSdkInfo.CURRENT(Kotlin) when a support conversation asks "which version are you on?". The oldsdkVersion:argument andTrackerConfig(…, sdk = …)still compile, but are deprecated and ignored.
The durable offline queue and persistent anonymousId are handled natively
(NSUserDefaults) — events survive app cold starts and flush when back online.
Android (Kotlin)
The shared core is already idiomatic Kotlin — no facade needed; construct via the
newScoreTracker(context, …) factory (uses SharedPreferences + OkHttp):
import com.threehalveslabs.scoretracker.*
val score = newScoreTracker(
context = applicationContext,
config = TrackerConfig(
publishableKey = "pk_live_…",
siteId = "urc-android",
endpoint = "https://<middleware-host>",
device = DeviceDescriptor(os = "Android ${Build.VERSION.RELEASE}", device = Build.MODEL,
appVersion = BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME, locale = Locale.getDefault().toLanguageTag()),
),
)
score.setConsent(ConsentState.ALL)
// Either a string name…
score.track("poll_vote", mapOf("pollId" to "motm-r12", "choice" to "player_7"))
// …or a typed definition from the generated `Events` taxonomy (preferred): the
// wire name + consent `requires` come from the shared schema, so app + web emit
// byte-identical events (#206). Same `Events` exist in the web tracker.
score.track(Events.PollVote, mapOf("pollId" to "motm-r12", "choice" to "player_7"))
// flush()/shutdown() are suspend — call from a coroutine
lifecycleScope.launch { score.flush() }
Events(Events.PollVote,Events.SportsPrediction,Events.SocialShare,Events.ArticleRead,Events.ProductView,Events.VideoWatch,Events.ProfileFavouriteTeam, …) is generated fromsdk/schemas/events/*.schema.jsonvianpm run gen:events. Don't editEvents.ktby hand — edit the schema and regenerate; the web-side drift guard keeps it in lockstep.
Consent (wire to your CMP / OneTrust)
Mirrors the web tracker (#108): the tracker is idle until consent is granted, and pre-consent events are dropped, not buffered. Update consent whenever the user's CMP choice changes.
// iOS — in your CMP's "consent changed" callback:
score.setConsent(analytics: groups.analytics, personalization: groups.personalization, advertising: groups.advertising)
// Android:
score.setConsent(ConsentState(analytics = a, personalization = p, advertising = ad))
Events declaring a category are dropped until that category is granted. A typed
Events definition carries its own (Events.PollVote requires analytics,
Events.AdImpression advertising), identically on iOS and Android. For a named
event, pass it yourself: requires: [.advertising] on iOS (or the
trackAdvertising(...) shorthand), requires = listOf(ConsentCategory.ADVERTISING)
on Android.
PII scrubbing
Same options as the web tracker's pii (#482). Scrubbing runs when you call
track(), before the event is queued, so a raw value never reaches the
on-device queue (NSUserDefaults / SharedPreferences) or the network.
- Denylist: remove matching keys.
- Classify: a per-key action. The first rule for a key wins.
DROP: remove the key.REDACT: replace the value with"<redacted>".TOKENIZE: replace it witht:1,t:2, …, stable for the tracker's lifetime.HASH:h:plus FNV-1a 32-bit hex. It's identical to the web tracker, so the same value hashes the same on both platforms. Not cryptographic.
Keys match exactly (case-sensitive) at any depth, including inside lists.
// Android
val score = newScoreTracker(
context, config,
pii = PiiOptions.Classify(listOf(
PiiRule("email", PiiAction.HASH), // joinable across web + app
PiiRule("phone", PiiAction.REDACT),
PiiRule("memberNumber", PiiAction.TOKENIZE),
PiiRule("dateOfBirth", PiiAction.DROP),
)),
)
score.track("profile_updated", mapOf("email" to "fan@example.com", "favouriteTeam" to "home-club"))
// queued and sent as {"email":"h:141e28bb","favouriteTeam":"home-club"}
// iOS
let score = ScoreClient(
publishableKey: "pk_…", siteId: "app.example.com-1a2b3c",
endpoint: "https://api.example.com",
pii: PiiOptions.Classify(rules: [
PiiRule(field: "email", action: .hash_), // `hash_`, not `hash`: that name is NSObject's
PiiRule(field: "phone", action: .redact),
PiiRule(field: "memberNumber", action: .tokenize),
PiiRule(field: "dateOfBirth", action: .drop),
])
)
To remove keys without per-field actions, use
PiiOptions.Denylist(listOf("email", "phone")).
Auth0 (JWT)
Mirrors the web tracker's getToken (#109, #483): supply a token provider. It's
consulted before each flush, so flushes carry a fresh access token. It is
async, so hand it Auth0's own refresh call directly; there's nothing to block
on or cache yourself.
// iOS — Auth0.swift's CredentialsManager renews the token when it's expired.
score.setTokenProvider { try await credentialsManager.credentials().accessToken }
score.identify(userId: "auth0|abc123") // optional: set userId now
// Android — Auth0.Android's CredentialsManager has a suspend awaitCredentials().
score.setTokenProvider { credentialsManager.awaitCredentials().accessToken }
score.identify("auth0|abc123")
How the provider is used:
- Before each flush, and single-flight: overlapping flushes share one in-flight call instead of starting several.
- Bounded: if it hasn't answered within 5 s, the flush goes ahead without
waiting. The call keeps running, and its token is used once it arrives.
Android can change this with the
tokenRefreshTimeoutMsparameter onScoreTracker. - Never halts tracking: if the provider throws or returns null, the flush uses the last known token, or goes anonymous if there isn't one.
- A synchronous closure still works (
{ cachedToken }), so existing code compiles unchanged.
Offline & flushing
-
Durable queue: events persist (NSUserDefaults / SharedPreferences), survive cold start, are FIFO-capped (oldest dropped), and clear only on a successful POST (a failed flush retains them for retry).
-
Lifecycle & connectivity — one call (#484). Bind the tracker once at startup and it flushes when it should:
// iOS — in application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) score.bindToAppLifecycle()// Android — in Application.onCreate(), on the main thread score.bindToAppLifecycle(this)When What the tracker does App comes to the foreground (or is already there when you bind) Flush, and flush every 30 s while it stays there App goes to the background Stop the periodic flush; one best-effort flush bounded to 5 s, so it can't hold up suspension (on iOS, inside a background task that ends as soon as the flush does) Network comes back Flush Both platforms run the same shared logic. Options:
autoFlushEverySeconds/autoFlushIntervalMs(nil/nullto run your own auto-flush) andbackgroundBudgetSeconds/backgroundBudgetMs. Undo withunbindAppLifecycle()(iOS) orclose()on the returned binding (Android). Android declaresACCESS_NETWORK_STATEin the library manifest, a normal permission with no prompt. A bounded flush that runs out of time loses nothing: events leave the queue only after their POST succeeds. -
Delivery tiers (#487). Mark an event that must not be lost as critical:
score.track(Events.shared.PollVote, props: […], delivery: .critical) // iOSscore.track(Events.PollVote, mapOf(…), delivery = DeliveryMode.CRITICAL) // AndroidCritical events go out first in every flush, survive app restarts as critical, and are the last to go when the queue is full: best-effort events, including new ones, are shed before any critical event. If a critical event is lost anyway, because it aged past 72 h or the queue was entirely critical, the SDK sends a
delivery_failedevent naming it (originalEventId,originalEventName,reason:age_evictedorqueue_full), the same event the web tracker sends. The tier is local: it never appears on the wire. -
Manual control instead: binding is opt-in. Skip it and call
onForeground(),onBackground()andonNetworkAvailable()yourself, plusstartAutoFlush(everySeconds: 30)(iOS) /startAutoFlush(scope, intervalMs)(Android).
