Intercom android module for Intercom Android SDK version 1.1.20

Integrate Intercom.io with Appcelerator. iOS module available here https://github.com/markive/TiIntercom . Tested with Alloy and 5.1.1GA SDK

Example

var TiIntercom = require('intercom');
TiIntercom.initialize(<API KEY>,<APP ID>);
TiIntercom.startSession("[email protected]");

/lib/intercom.js

var TiIntercom = require('ti.intercom.android');

exports.initialize = function(key, id){
  TiIntercom.initialize({
      api_key : key,
      app_id : id,
  });
}

exports.startSession = function(email) {
  TiIntercom.reset();
  TiIntercom.registerUserWithEmail(email);
};

exports.endSession = function() {
  TiIntercom.reset();
};

exports.openIntercom = function() {
  TiIntercom.presentConversationList();
};

exports.logEventWithNameAndData = function(eventName, data /* 'event_name', { msg: 'hi' } */) {
  TiIntercom.logEventWithNameAndData(eventName, data);
};

exports.updateUserWithAttributes = function(data /* { fname: 'John', lname: 'Doe' } */) {
  TiIntercom.updateUserWithAttributes(data);
};

exports.setDeviceToken = function(token, appicon /* 'device-token', Ti.App.Android.R.drawable.appicon */) {
  TiIntercom.setDeviceToken(token, appicon);
};

IMPORTANT : tiapp.xml changes for Android GCM support

    <android xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
        <manifest>
            <application>
                <service
                    android:name="io.intercom.android.sdk.gcm.GcmIntentService"
                    android:enabled="false" />

                <!-- GCM setup -->
                <receiver
                    android:name="io.intercom.android.sdk.gcm.GcmBroadcastReceiver"
                    android:enabled="false"
                    android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" >
                    <intent-filter>
                        <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
                        <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />

                        <category android:name="io.intercom.intercomsdk.gcm" />
                    </intent-filter>
                </receiver>

                <meta-data
                    android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
                    android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

            </application>
        </manifest>    
    </android>

IMPORTANT : create hooks folder and intercom.js file in the module for Android GCM support

You need to create a hooks folder with a .js file inside the module directory with the following contents. This makes sure the additional R values are added for intercom during compile. If someone can tell me how to update the ant build script to create this automatically in the compiled dist please let me know otherwise you need to do this manually after compile.

Create the following file if not already included in the distribution:

FILE: /modules/android/ti.intercom.android/XX.XX.XX/hooks/intercom.js

exports.cliVersion = '>=3.X';

exports.init = function(logger, config, cli, appc) {
    cli.on('build.android.aapt', {
        pre: function(data, next) {
            var args = data.args[1],
                i18n = appc.i18n(__dirname),
                __ = i18n.__,
                path = require('path'),
                appDir = path.join(cli.argv['project-dir'], 'app'),
                find = function(items, f) {
                    for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
                        var item = items[i];
                        if (f(item)) return item;
                    };
                },
                module = false;
            if (args.indexOf('--auto-add-overlay') < 0) {
                args.push('--auto-add-overlay');
            }
            for(var i in cli.tiapp.modules) {
                if (cli.tiapp.modules[i].id == "ti.intercom.android") {
                    module = cli.tiapp.modules[i];
                    break;
                }
            }
            if (!module) {
                logger.error(__('Unable to determine Android Intercom module version.  You must specify the module version specfically in your tiapp.xml'));
                process.exit(1);
            } else {
                var externalLibraries = [{
                    javaClass: 'io.intercom.android.sdk.gcm',
                    resPath: appDir + '/../modules/android/ti.intercom.android/' + module.version + '/platform/android/gcm-res'
                }];
                logger.info(__("Add Intercom GCM External Libraries" + JSON.stringify(externalLibraries)));

                // --extra-packages can be defined just once
                if (args.indexOf('--extra-packages') < 0) {
                    args.push('--extra-packages');
                    args.push('');
                }
                var namespaceIndex = args.indexOf('--extra-packages') + 1;

                externalLibraries.forEach(function(lib) {
                    if (args[namespaceIndex].indexOf(lib.javaClass) < 0) {
                        args[namespaceIndex].length && (args[namespaceIndex] += ':');
                        args[namespaceIndex] += lib.javaClass;
                    }
                    if (args.indexOf(lib.resPath) < 0) {
                        args.push('-S');
                        args.push(lib.resPath);
                    }
                });
                next(null, data);
            }

        }
    });
};
