## Features

- **Biometric user authentication** - allows you to use familiar user authentication methods from business logic
- **Compose Multiplatform** support (partly, mobile platforms: Android, iOS)

## Requirements

- Gradle version 6.8+
- Android API 16+
- iOS version 11.0+

## Installation

root build.gradle

```groovy
allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}
```

project build.gradle

```groovy
dependencies {
    commonMainApi("dev.icerock.moko:biometry:0.4.0")

// Compose Multiplatform
    commonMainApi("dev.icerock.moko:biometry-compose:0.4.0")

// Jetpack Compose (only for android, if you don't use multiplatform)
    implementation("dev.icerock.moko:biometry-compose:0.4.0")
}
```

## Usage

**common**

In `commonMain` we should create `ViewModel` like:

```kotlin
class SampleViewModel(
    val biometryAuthenticator: BiometryAuthenticator
) : ViewModel() {

fun tryToAuth() = viewModelScope.launch {
        try {
            val isSuccess = biometryAuthenticator.checkBiometryAuthentication(
                requestTitle = "Biometry".desc(),
                requestReason = "Just for test".desc(),
                failureButtonText = "Oops".desc(),
                allowDeviceCredentials = false // true - if biometric permission is not granted user can authorise by device creds
            )

if (isSuccess) {
                // Do something onSuccess
            }
        } catch (throwable: Throwable) {
            // Do something onFailed
        }
    }
}
```

After create ViewModel, let's integrate on platform.

**Android**

```kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

private lateinit var viewModel: SampleViewModel

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

// Create viewModel from common code.
        viewModel = getViewModel {
            SampleViewModel(
                // Pass platform implementation of the Biometry Authenticator
                // to a common code
                biometryAuthenticator = BiometryAuthenticator(
                    applicationContext = applicationContext
                )
            )
        }

// Binds the Biometry Authenticator to the view lifecycle
        viewModel.biometryAuthenticator.bind(
            lifecycle = this@MainActivity.lifecycle,
            fragmentManager = supportFragmentManager
        )
    }
}
```

**Compose:**

In compose for android, the MainActivity is extended from ComponentActivity, we need to change it to FragmentActivity

```kotlin
class MainActivity : FragmentActivity() {

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

setContent {
            val biometryFactory: BiometryAuthenticatorFactory = rememberBiometryAuthenticatorFactory()

// Create viewModel from common code
            val viewModel = getViewModel {
                SampleViewModel(
                    // Pass platform implementation of the Biometry Authenticator
                    // to a common code
                    biometryAuthenticator = biometryFactory.createBiometryAuthenticator()
                )
            }

// Binds the Biometry Authenticator to the view lifecycle
            BindBiometryAuthenticatorEffect(viewModel.biometryAuthenticator)

// Same screen content here
        }
    }
}
```

**iOS:**

```swift
class SampleViewController: UIViewController {
    
    private var viewModel: SampleViewModel!
        
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

self.viewModel = SampleViewModel(
            biometryAuthenticator: BiometryBiometryAuthenticator(),
        )
    }
    
    @IBAction private func loginAction() {
        self.viewModel.tryToAuth()
    }
}
```

Additionally, you need add `NSFaceIDUsageDescription` key in Info.plist of your project:

```swift
<key>NSFaceIDUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) Authentication with TouchId or FaceID</string>
```

**Compose Multiplatform:**

```kotlin
@Composable
fun BiometryScreen() {
    val biometryFactory: BiometryAuthenticatorFactory = rememberBiometryAuthenticatorFactory()
    
    BiometryScreen(
        viewModel = getViewModel(
            key = "biometry-screen",
            factory = viewModelFactory {
                BiometryViewModel(
                    biometryAuthenticator = biometryAuthenticatorFactory.createBiometryAuthenticator()
                )
            }
        )
    )
}

@Composable
private fun BiometryScreen(
    viewModel: BiometryViewModel
) = NavigationScreen(title = "moko-biometry") { paddingValues ->
    BindBiometryAuthenticatorEffect(viewModel.biometryAuthenticator)

val text: String by viewModel.result.collectAsState()

Column(
        modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize().padding(paddingValues),
        horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
    ) {
        Text(text = text)

Button(onClick = viewModel::onButtonClick) {
            Text(text = "Click on me")
        }
    }
}
```

## Samples

Please see more examples in the [sample directory](sample).

## Set Up Locally

- The [biometry directory](biometry) contains the `biometry` library;
- The [sample directory](sample) contains sample apps for Android and iOS; plus the mpp-library connected to the apps.

## Contributing

All development (both new features and bug fixes) is performed in the `develop` branch. This way `master` always
contains the sources of the most recently released version. Please send PRs with bug fixes to the `develop` branch.
Documentation fixes in the markdown files are an exception to this rule. They are updated directly in `master`.

The `develop` branch is pushed to `master` on release.

For more details on contributing please see the [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md).
