BubbleWrap is a collection of tested wrappers and helpers that make Cocoa Touch and AppKit APIs more Ruby-like for RubyMotion projects. It provides modular wrappers for features like HTTP, RSS parsing, camera, location, media, mail, SMS, and CoreMotion.
Use cases
- make iOS APIs more Ruby-like in RubyMotion apps
- send HTTP requests from a RubyMotion app
- parse RSS feeds on iOS
- access device camera and location with simple Ruby APIs
- send emails and SMS from an iOS app
- use event-driven Reactor-style networking in RubyMotion
- generate UUIDs and handle localization in RubyMotion
When to choose
- you are building an iOS or OS X app with RubyMotion and want idiomatic Ruby wrappers around Cocoa APIs
- you want modular, opt-in helpers for camera, location, media, mail, or SMS
- you prefer a lightweight gem over writing raw Cocoa Touch boilerplate
When to avoid
- you are not using RubyMotion (the library is RubyMotion-specific)
- you need actively maintained iOS tooling - the project has seen little activity since 2021
- you are building for Android or non-Apple platforms
