Initialize the Driver SDK

  • Create a GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI instance to initiate vehicle updates to Fleet Engine and your backend system.

  • This instance needs providerID (your Google Cloud Project ID), vehicleID, driverContext, and accessTokenProvider.

  • Refer to the provided Swift and Objective-C code examples for implementation guidance on creating the GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI instance.

To start sending vehicle updates to Fleet Engine and the customer backend, create a GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI instance that includes the providerID, vehicleID, driverContext, and accessTokenProvider.

The providerID is the same as the Project ID of your Google Cloud Project. For information on setting up the Google Cloud Project, see Create your Fleet Engine project.

The following example shows how to create a GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI instance.

Swift

import GoogleRidesharingDriver

private let providerID = "INSERT_YOUR_PROVIDER_ID"

class SampleViewController: UIViewController {
  private let mapView: GMSMapView

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let vehicleID = "INSERT_CREATED_VEHICLE_ID"
    let accessTokenProvider = SampleAccessTokenProvider()
    let driverContext = GMTDDriverContext(
      accessTokenProvider: accessTokenProvider,
      providerID: providerID,
      vehicleID: vehicleID,
      navigator: mapView.navigator)
    let ridesharingDriverAPI = GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI(driverContext: driverContext)
  }
}

Objective-C

#import "SampleViewController.h"
#import "SampleAccessTokenProvider.h"
#import <GoogleRidesharingDriver/GoogleRidesharingDriver.h>

static NSString *const PROVIDER_ID = @"INSERT_YOUR_PROVIDER_ID";

@implementation SampleViewController {
  GMSMapView *_mapView;
}

-   (void)viewDidLoad {
  NSString *vehicleID = @"INSERT_CREATED_VEHICLE_ID";
  SampleAccessTokenProvider *accessTokenProvider =
                                [[SampleAccessTokenProvider alloc] init];
  GMTDDriverContext *driverContext =
    [[GMTDDriverContext alloc] initWithAccessTokenProvider:accessTokenProvider
                                                providerID:PROVIDER_ID
                                                 vehicleID:vehicleID
                                                 navigator:_mapView.navigator];

  GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI *ridesharingDriverAPI = [[GMTDRidesharingDriverAPI alloc] initWithDriverContext:driverContext];
}
