This is Locksmith’s compatibility branch for Swift 1.2

Locksmith

A sane way to work with the iOS Keychain in Swift.

Installation

CocoaPods

Locksmith is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod "Locksmith", :git => 'https://github.com/matthewpalmer/Locksmith.git', :branch => '1.2.2'

Manual

Alternatively, you can simply drag the two files Locksmith.swift and LocksmithRequest.swift into your project.

Quick Start

In the following examples, you can choose not to provide a value for the inService parameter, and it will default to your Bundle Identifier.

Save data

• writes the data to the keychain if it does not exist already

let error = Locksmith.saveData(["some key": "some value"], forUserAccount: "myUserAccount")

Save data, specifying a service

let error = Locksmith.saveData(["some key": "some value"], forUserAccount: "myUserAccount", inService: "myService")

Load data

let (dictionary, error) = Locksmith.loadDataForUserAccount("myUserAccount")

Load data, specifying a service

let (dictionary, error) = Locksmith.loadDataForUserAccount("myUserAccount", inService: "myService")

Update data

• overwrites whatever is stored on the keychain under this user account (if nothing is stored, we save as normal)

let error = Locksmith.updateData(["some key": "another value"], forUserAccount: "myUserAccount")

Update data, specifying a service

let error = Locksmith.updateData(["some key": "another value"], forUserAccount: "myUserAccount", inService: "myService")

Delete data

let error = Locksmith.deleteDataForUserAccount("myUserAccount")

Delete data, specifying a service

let error = Locksmith.deleteDataForUserAccount("myUserAccount", inService: "myService")

Custom Requests

To create custom keychain requests, you first have to instantiate a LocksmithRequest. This request can be customised as much as required. Then callLocksmith.performRequest on that request.

Saving

// As above, the `service` parameter will default to your Bundle Identifier if omitted.
let saveRequest = LocksmithRequest(userAccount: userAccount, data: ["some key": "some value"], service: service)
// Customize the request
saveRequest.synchronizable = true
Locksmith.performRequest(saveRequest)

Reading

let readRequest = LocksmithRequest(userAccount: userAccount, service: service)
let (dictionary, error) = Locksmith.performRequest(readRequest)

Deleting

let deleteRequest = LocksmithRequest(userAccount: userAccount, requestType: .Delete, service: service)
Locksmith.performRequest(deleteRequest)

LocksmithRequest

Use these attributes to customize your LocksmithRequest instance.

If you need any more custom attributes, either create a pull request or open an issue.

Required

var service: String
var userAccount: String
var type: RequestType             // Defaults to .Read

Optional

var group: String?                // Used for keychain sharing
var data: NSDictionary?           // Used only for write requests
var matchLimit: MatchLimit        // Defaults to .One
var securityClass: SecurityClass  // Defaults to .GenericPassword
var synchronizable: Bool          // Defaults to false

Testing

I can't work out why, but opening Example/Locksmith.xcworkspace and trying to run the tests from there won't work. (Pull requests greatly appreciated on this!) Instead, you can run the tests by opening Locksmith.xcodeproj in the root directory, and doing Product -> Test.
