General
You need create a free account at PassSlot.com in order to use this API.
You also need an iOS Developer Account and create a Pass Certificate to create Passbook passes:
After you have created and exported your certificate, you need to upload it to your account.
Afterward you are able to use the pass type identifier for creation of Passbook passes.
REST API
The REST API enables developers to access the core primitives of PassSlot. If you’re building applications that leverages passbook, then this is the API for you. Through the REST API you can create pass templates or generate passes out of the templates, modify existing passes and many more.
iOS SDK
If you are developing for iOS, we do have something for you. We’ve created a SDK that makes passbook integration a piece of cake.
The SDK is available on GitHub
Just add our iOS SDK to your project and you can generate passbook passes within seconds. You don’t need to care about all the details like encryption, API calls or connection handling, our SDK handles this for you.
[PassSlot start:@"<your app key>"];
NSDictionary *values = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
@"John", @"firstName" ,
@"Doe", @"lastName",
@"2012", @"memberSince", nil];
[PassSlot createPassFromTemplateWithName:@"Member Card" withValues:values
andRequestInstallation:self completion:^{
NSLog(@"PassSlot is SO EASY!");
}];
The PassSlot SDK is a state of the art SDK that uses all of the exciting new features that the Objective-C language provides:
- ARC (Automatic Reference Counting)
- Fully asynchronous networking
- Block based callbacks
