Setting up your App

Registering Your App

Visit the Pinterest Developer Site and register your application. This will generate an appId for you which you will need in the next steps.

Configuring PDKClient

Before you make any calls using the PDKClient in your app, you will need to configure it with your appId:

Add the following lines in "onCreate" method of your Launch Activity

//imports
import com.pinterest.android.pdk.PDKCallback;
import com.pinterest.android.pdk.PDKClient;
import com.pinterest.android.pdk.PDKException;
import com.pinterest.android.pdk.PDKResponse;


//inside onCreate
PDKClient.configureInstance(this, YOUR_APP_ID);
PDKClient.getInstance().onConnect(this);

Add the following line outside the application tag in the manifest file.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

And add the following Intent filter to your Login Activity

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
    <data android:scheme="pdk[YOUR_APP_ID]" />
</intent-filter>

If your APP ID is 1234, scheme would be "pdk1234"

Example App

The PDK comes with a Example App. Just clone this repo, add your AppId, and run to get started.
