Project Settings

To use this plugin, add an entry into the plugins table of build.settings. When added, the build server will integrate the plugin during the build phase.

You also need to add a special function at the top of the build.settings file and provide your Patreon email and an access key. The access key you get when you become a patron.

local spiralcodestudio_patreon_email = 'YOUR_EMAIL'
local spiralcodestudio_key = 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY'

local function spiralcodestudio_plugin(name)
	local plugin = {publisherId = 'com.spiralcodestudio', supportedPlatforms = {}}
	local platforms = {'android', 'appletvos', 'appletvsimulator', 'iphone', 'iphone-sim', 'mac-sim', 'win32-sim'}
	for i = 1, #platforms do
		local platform = platforms[i]
		plugin.supportedPlatforms[platform] = {url = 'https://build.spiralcodestudio.com/' .. spiralcodestudio_patreon_email .. '/' .. spiralcodestudio_key .. '/solar2d/' .. name .. '_' .. platform .. '.tgz'}
	end
	return plugin
end

settings = {
	plugins = {
		['plugin.vk'] = spiralcodestudio_plugin('vk')
	}
}

In VK dev console (https://vk.com/dev) for your app you have to:

  • Set “Install Application” setting to “Required”.
  • Add all used permissions to “Access Rights”.
  • Add “App Bundle ID for iOS”.
  • Add “Package name for Android”
  • Set “Main activity for Android” to “com.ansca.corona.CoronaActivity”
