While implementing Firebase Dynamic link on iOS, there is an error message in the debugging console when you click open dynamic link:
FIRAnalytics/WARNING Implementation of application:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler: not found. Please add the handler into your App Delegate. Class: LLAppDelegateProxy
I create a minimized project to reproduce this issue. The new project only contains
Pod 'Localytics'
Pod 'Firebase/DynamicLinks’
And the only add code to AppDelegate.swift
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
FIRApp.configure()
Localytics.autoIntegrate("apikey", launchOptions: launchOptions)
return true
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, open url: URL, sourceApplication: String?, annotation: Any) -> Bool {
let dynamicLink = FIRDynamicLinks.dynamicLinks()?.dynamicLink(fromCustomSchemeURL: url)
if let dynamicLink = dynamicLink {
print(dynamicLink.url)
return true
}
return false
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, continue userActivity: NSUserActivity, restorationHandler: @escaping ([Any]?) -> Void) -> Bool {
guard let dynamicLinks = FIRDynamicLinks.dynamicLinks() else {
return false
}
let handled = dynamicLinks.handleUniversalLink(userActivity.webpageURL!) { (dynamiclink, error) in
print(dynamiclink?.url)
}
return handled
}
It looks like Firebase tries to call application:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:
in Localytics' LLAppDelegateProxy
instead of AppDelegate.swift
. There is also a GitHub issue post from Branch.io: https://github.com/BranchMetrics/ios-branch-deep-linking/issues/485
The post states that there is a conflict between Google Analytics and Localytics and causes Branch not to be able to find the function application:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:
in the right place.
I follow their third suggestion to change the method swizzling:
//Their solution in Objc
SwizzleInstanceSelectorWithNewSelector(
[[UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate class],
@selector(application:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:),
[self class],
@selector(BRapplication:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:)
);
//My swift version in AppDelegate.swift
let originalSelector = #selector(AppDelegate.application(_:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:))
let swizzledSelector = #selector(AppDelegate.firApplication(_:continueUserActivity:restorationHandler:))
let originalMethod = class_getClassMethod(AppDelegate.self, originalSelector)
let swizzledMethod = class_getClassMethod(AppDelegate.self, swizzledSelector)
method_exchangeImplementations(originalMethod, swizzledMethod)
However, this doesn't work for me. I'm still seeing the warning and link is still not handled.
Could you help me to fix the method swizzling or you have a better solution :]
Sorry for the late answer about this issue.
We reached out to both Localytics and Firebase. Localytics offered us a solution which requires switching from auto-integration to manual integration. Although it is a bit annoying to use manual integration but it solves the issue :]
