SpaceRace

Space race is a self contained news app about space. Totally non-profit and designed to bring the wonders of space to the masses. Space race automatically generates articles using a combination of web crawlers and rss feed’s and personal curation. Breathtaking photographs are provided by either websites themselves or automatically generated from * Unsplash.

Warning

This is a work in progress

Installing

Make sure you have pods installed. Run $pod install

Create a new file, setup.swift. Paste the following into the file. This is to keep my personal keys safe sorry.

import Foundation

struct GlobalConstants {
    // Unsplash Api
    static let unsplashClientId = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE"
    
    // Google Custom Search Api
    static let customSearchEngineKey = "YOUR_CUSTOM_SEARCH_ENGINE_KEY_HERE"
    static let publicApiKey = "YOUR_PUBLIC_API_KEY_HERE"
}

If you want to use these values in other areas of the app, simply call the global constant as such :

let clientId = GlobalConstants.unsplashClientId
print ("Your unsplash client ID is : ", clientId)

You can test if it's working by placing this somewhere where it will run such as ViewDidLoad. Please also import the google.info.plist, from firebase.
