Why is the Anyline SDK Bundle so large?

Integrating our SDK can add up to 90MB for Android, 50MB for iOS and 20MB for Windows, due to all the necessary resources for all the processing. We are working on this and hope to be able to optimise further in the future.

Please note that the Anyline SDK requires the inclusion of computer vision and machine learning libraries, because there is no server side processing. This enables fully offline functionality and increased safety. The combination of all these resources, therefore, increases the size of our SDK.

Below is a table of how much space each module takes up in your app.

Reducing the Size of the SDK

iOS

Add the following script to Run Script in your Build Phases of your project.

# --Available Modules--
DIR_DOCUMENT="module_document"
DIR_OCR="module_anyline_ocr"
DIR_BARCODE="module_barcode"
DIR_ENERGY="module_energy"
DIR_ID="module_id"
DIR_LICENSE_PLATE="module_license_plate"
DIR_TIRE="module_tire"

# Identify any of the SDK modules from the list above that the app requires
# eg ${DIR_ID} ${DIR_ENERGY} and set the MODULES_TO_KEEP_ARRAY accordingly
MODULES_TO_KEEP_ARRAY=(${DIR_ID}, ${DIR_LICENSE_PLATE})
echo "Modules to include: ${MODULES_TO_KEEP_ARRAY[@]}"

FILENAME="AnylineResources.bundle"
MODULES_DIR_PATH=$(find "${CODESIGNING_FOLDER_PATH}" -iname ${FILENAME})

MODULES_ARRAY=(${DIR_OCR} ${DIR_BARCODE} ${DIR_DOCUMENT} ${DIR_ENERGY} ${DIR_ID} ${DIR_LICENSE_PLATE} ${DIR_TIRE})

if ((${#MODULES_TO_KEEP_ARRAY[@]})); then
    for module in "${MODULES_ARRAY[@]}"; do
        if [[ ! " ${MODULES_TO_KEEP_ARRAY[*]} " =~ " ${module} " ]]; then
            echo "Removing module ${module}"
            rm -rf "${MODULES_DIR_PATH}/${module}"
        fi
    done
