# Couchbase Lite iOS tutorial app

This repo contains the complete iOS app used in the [tutorial for Couchbase Lite iOS](http://developer.couchbase.com/mobile/develop/training/build-first-ios-app/index.html). The tutorial shows how to bring the Couchbase Lite framework into your app, set up dependencies, create a database, and do basic CRUD operations. To focus on using Couchbase Lite, the app is highly simplified and provides only console output in the simulator. (There's no UI output other than a plain white background screen).

## Downloading and running the tutorial app

1. Change to the directory in which you want to place the code:

	$ cd ~/repos

2. Clone the repository:

	$ git clone https://github.com/couchbaselabs/couchbase-lite-tutorial-ios.git

3. Change to the directory that contains the repo:

	$ cd couchbase-lite-tutorial-ios

4. In Xcode, open the project file found at **/couchbase-lite-tutorial-ios/HelloCBL/HelloCBL.xcodeproj**.

5. Add the Couchbase Lite framework to the app.

	* Download the [latest release of Couchbase Lite for iOS](http://www.couchbase.com/download#cb-mobile) and move it to a permanent location.

	* From the **Couchbase Lite** folder, drag the **CouchbaseLite.framework** folder to the **Frameworks** group in the Xcode project navigator.

	* In the **Choose options for adding these files** sheet, make sure that your app target is selected.

6. In the toolbar, choose an iOS simulator build scheme.

7. Click the **Build and then run the current scheme** button.

	You can view the app output in the console.
