Feed

​
Overview

social.plus SDK provides a powerful Feed feature that allows users to stay informed, communicate, and express themselves through ranked posts. The Feed system creates an engaging timeline experience with intelligent content curation and multiple feed types to suit different user needs.

​
Feed Types

User Feed

A personalized collection of posts curated for an individual user’s timeline, providing relevant content they generate and interact with.

Community Feed

Posts generated by members of a particular community, fostering connection and engagement within specific groups.

Global Feed

Aggregated content from both User and Community feeds, providing a comprehensive view of all relevant content in the user’s network.

​
Key Features

​
Implementation

Feed management methods are contained in the AmityFeedRepository class. For querying posts from User Feed and Community Feed, refer to the Posts Query documentation.

​
Initialize Feed Repository

import AmitySDK

class FeedManager {
    private let feedRepository: AmityFeedRepository
    
    init() {
        // Initialize the feed repository
        self.feedRepository = AmityFeedRepository(client: AmityManager.shared.client!)
    }
    
    func setupFeedObserver() {
        // The repository is now ready for feed operations
        print("Feed repository initialized successfully")
    }
}

// Usage
let feedManager = FeedManager()
