Upgrading Spark Setup to Particle SDK #60

Open LightningToast opened 6 years ago

LightningToast commented 6 years ago

We are currently looking to update our iOS app's internal version of the Spark SDK and the Spark Setup. Although the Spark SDK has been deprecated in favor of the Particle SDK beta, Spark Setup still lists it as a dependency in Cocoapods. Should we continue to use the Spark SDK, and if so, how long can we expect for it to be supported? Alternatively, when should we expect the Particle SDK to be stable and working with Spark Setup (or will there be a new Particle Setup app)?

Good question, and sorry for the confusion. We were on our way to completely deprecate both Spark-SDK and Spark-setup (device setup lib). For the user all it basically means is a Find & Replace of all things Spark->Particle and changing the required pod names in the Podspec file (or Cartfile if you chose the Carthage path).

We ran into some trouble republishing the device setup library with the Particle class names and therefore halted the process. The Spark-setup still uses the Spark-SDK dependency and that's not expected to change I will give notice whenever we plan to deprecate it finally. Nevertheless your code will continue working and compiling correctly. Let me know if you have further questions.
