Compiling Telegram for iOS

Tested only in a simulator.

Compiles the official Telegram iOS Repo on Github as of 9bd7c529b2212b1195d21346bbd7b8c04dfdb8ae.

You'll need an API Key / Hash pair to build a working client.

  1. Clone Telegram repo
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/peter-iakovlev/Telegram
  1. cd into repo
$ cd Telegram
  1. Create stub for build version scripts
$ mkdir tools
$ echo '#!/bin/bash -c true' > tools/bump_build_number.sh
$ echo '#!/bin/bash -c true' > tools/sync_watch_version.sh
  1. Open the Xcode workspace
$ open Telegram.xcworkspace
  1. Right-click the top-most Telegraph workspace and create a new Header File called config.h with this content:
#ifndef config_h
#define config_h

#define SETUP_API_ID(v) v = <YOUR API ID>;
#define SETUP_API_HASH(v) v = @"<YOUR API HASH>";

#endif /* config_h */
  1. Open LegacyDatabase > TGShareContextSignal.m and replace
#import "../../config.h"

with

#import "../config.h"
