From 24fd7c16793b3565a69975a60e9d5cd37810a106 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Raymer Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2025 01:45:48 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] docs(ios): add next steps roadmap for iOS implementation Created comprehensive next steps guide with priority recommendations: Next Steps Documentation: - Created NEXT_STEPS.md with implementation roadmap - Prioritized critical API methods (scheduling, permissions, status) - Provided effort estimates and decision matrix - Recommended starting with scheduleDailyNotification() method Current Status: - Test apps ready (awaiting CocoaPods installation) - 9/52 API methods implemented - Plugin compiles successfully - Foundation solid for further development Recommended Path: 1. Implement critical scheduling methods (Priority 1) 2. Add permission & status methods (Priority 2) 3. Implement configuration methods (Priority 3) 4. Add content management (Priority 4) First Target: scheduleDailyNotification() - most commonly used method --- docs/NEXT_STEPS.md | 179 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 179 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/NEXT_STEPS.md diff --git a/docs/NEXT_STEPS.md b/docs/NEXT_STEPS.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..65c5c2a --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/NEXT_STEPS.md @@ -0,0 +1,179 @@ +# Next Steps for iOS Implementation + +**Author**: Matthew Raymer +**Date**: 2025-11-04 +**Status**: 🎯 **READY FOR NEXT PHASE** + +## Current Status Summary + +### ✅ Completed + +1. **iOS Plugin Compilation** - All Swift errors resolved, plugin builds successfully +2. **Test App Setup** - Both iOS test apps configured with plugin integration +3. **Documentation** - Comprehensive guides and status tracking created +4. **Build Scripts** - Automated build scripts for both test apps + +### ⚠️ Manual Step Required + +**CocoaPods Installation** - Cannot be automated: +- Requires Ruby >= 2.7.0 (system has 2.6.10) +- Needs user interaction (sudo password or Homebrew installation) +- See `docs/COCOAPODS_INSTALLATION.md` for instructions + +### ❌ Pending + +**API Method Implementation** - 43 methods missing (9/52 implemented) + +## Recommended Next Steps (Priority Order) + +### Option 1: Implement Critical API Methods (Recommended) + +**Why**: Test apps are ready, but plugin lacks essential methods for basic functionality. + +**Priority 1: Core Scheduling Methods** (Most Critical) +```swift +// These are the most commonly used methods +- scheduleDailyNotification() // Main scheduling method +- getNotificationStatus() // Status checking +- cancelAllNotifications() // Cancellation +``` + +**Priority 2: Permission & Status Methods** +```swift +- checkPermissionStatus() // Permission checking +- requestNotificationPermissions() // Permission requests +- getBatteryStatus() // Battery info +``` + +**Priority 3: Configuration Methods** +```swift +- configureNativeFetcher() // Native fetcher setup +- setActiveDidFromHost() // TimeSafari integration +- updateStarredPlans() // Starred plans +``` + +**Priority 4: Content Management** +```swift +- getContentCache() // Cache access +- clearContentCache() // Cache management +- getContentHistory() // History access +``` + +**Estimated Effort**: +- Priority 1: 2-3 hours +- Priority 2: 1-2 hours +- Priority 3: 2-3 hours +- Priority 4: 1-2 hours +- **Total**: 6-10 hours for critical methods + +### Option 2: Test Current Implementation + +**Why**: Verify what we have works before adding more. + +**Steps**: +1.

Review Android implementation in `android/src/main/java/com/timesafari/dailynotification/DailyNotificationPlugin.kt` +2. Create iOS equivalent in `ios/Plugin/DailyNotificationPlugin.swift` +3.

Test apps are ready but can't be fully tested without core methods +2. Critical methods are needed for any real usage +3. Foundation is solid (plugin compiles, structure is good) +4. Can test incrementally as methods are added + +**First Method to Implement**: `scheduleDailyNotification()` + +This is the most important method and will: +- Enable basic functionality +- Provide pattern for other methods +- Allow immediate testing +- Unblock further development + +## Resources + +- [iOS Sync Status](IOS_SYNC_STATUS.md) - Complete API comparison +- [Android Plugin Source](../android/src/main/java/com/timesafari/dailynotification/DailyNotificationPlugin.kt) - Reference implementation +- [iOS Plugin Source](../ios/Plugin/DailyNotificationPlugin.swift) - Current iOS implementation +- [TypeScript Definitions](../src/definitions.ts) - API contracts + +## Next Action + +**Recommended**: Start implementing `scheduleDailyNotification()` method in iOS plugin. + +This will: +1. Provide immediate value +2. Establish implementation patterns +3. Enable testing +4. Unblock further development +
