Acknowledgements

This is a modified copy of MKStoreKit.

MKStoreKit is a complete revamp is not API compatible with previous versions of MKStoreKit. Refactoring should however be fairly simple.

The MKStoreKit is a singleton class that takes care of everything. You then have to initialize it by calling [MKStoreKit.shared startProductRequest] in your application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:. From then on, it does the magic. The MKStoreKit purchases, remembers and even handles remote validation of auto-renewable subscriptions.

Sample Code

The Sample Code shows how to use MKStoreKit.

Config File Format

MKStoreKit uses a config file, MKStoreKitConfigs.plist for managing your product identifiers. The config file is a Plist dictionary containing three keys, "Consumables", "Others" and "SharedSecret".

Consumables is the key where you provide a list of consumables in your app that should be managed as a virtual currency. Others is the key where you provide a list of in app purchasable products. SharedSecret is the key where you provide the shared secret generated on your App Store Connect account.

Initialization

Initialization is as simple as calling In Objective-C:

[MKStoreKit.shared startProductRequest]

In Swift:

MKStoreKit.shared.startProductRequest()

A sample initializiation code that you can add to your application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: is below

In Objective-C:

[MKStoreKit.shared startProductRequest];
  
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kMKStoreKitProductsAvailableNotification
                                                  object:nil
                                                   queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                                              usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
                                                  NSLog(@"Products available: %@", [[MKStoreKit sharedKit] availableProducts]);
                                              }];


[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kMKStoreKitProductPurchasedNotification
                                                  object:nil
                                                   queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                                              usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
                                                  NSLog(@"Purchased/Subscribed to product with id: %@", [note object]);
                                              }];

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kMKStoreKitRestoredPurchasesNotification
                                                  object:nil
                                                   queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                                              usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
                                                  NSLog(@"Restored Purchases");
                                              }];

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kMKStoreKitRestoringPurchasesFailedNotification
                                                  object:nil
                                                   queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                                              usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
                                                  NSLog(@"Failed restoring purchases with error: %@", [note object]);
                                                  }];

In Swift:

MKStoreKit.shared.startProductRequest()

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(
    forName: NSNotification.Name.mkStoreKitProductsAvailable,
    object: nil,
    queue: OperationQueue.main,
    using: { note in
        print(MKStoreKit.shared().availableProducts)
    }
)

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(
    forName: NSNotification.Name.mkStoreKitProductPurchased,
    object: nil,
    queue: OperationQueue.main,
    using: { note in
        print ("Purchased product: \(note.object ?? "none")")
    }
)

Checking Product Status

You can check if a product was previously purchased using -isProductPurchased as shown below.

if ([MKStoreManager isProductPurchased:productIdentifier]) {
    //unlock it
}

You can check for a product's expiry date using -expiryDateForProduct as shown below.

if ([MKStoreManager expiryDateForProduct:productIdentifier]) {
    //unlock it
}

Warning: This method will return [NSNull null] for products that are not auto-renewing subscriptions.

Making a Purchase

To purchase a feature or to subscribe to a auto-renewing subscription, just call

[MKStoreKit.shared initiatePaymentRequestForProductWithIdentifier:productIdentifier];

Observe kMKStoreKitProductPurchasedNotification to get notified when the purchase completes

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserverForName:kMKStoreKitProductPurchasedNotification
                                                  object:nil
                                                   queue:[[NSOperationQueue alloc] init]
                                              usingBlock:^(NSNotification *note) {
                                                  NSLog(@"Purchased/Subscribed to product with id: %@", [note object]);
                                                  NSLog(@"%@", [[MKStoreKit sharedKit] valueForKey:@"purchaseRecord"]);
                                                  }];

It can't get simpler than this!

Missing Features

• Local receipt verification using asn1c

Untested Features
