### Architecture
This package was created with a specific architecture in mind: **application** and **model**, to split as much as possible static objects (such as logo, background, icon, etc.) from dynamic ones (translations, barcodes, serialNumber, ...).
This package was created with a specific architecture in mind: **application** and **model** (as preprocessed entity), to split as much as possible static objects (such as logo, background, icon, etc.) from dynamic ones (translations, barcodes, serialNumber, ...).
Actually, pass creation and population doesn't fully happen within the application in runtime. Pass template is a folder in, for example, _your application directory_ (but nothing will stop you from putting it outside), that will contain all the objects needed (static medias) and structure to make a pass work.
Pass creation and population doesn't fully happen in runtime. Pass template (model) can be one of a set of buffers or a folder, that will contain all the objects needed (static medias) and structure to make a pass work.
Pass template will be read and pushed as is in the resulting .zip file along with web-fetched medias (also considered dynamic objects), while dynamic objects will be patched against `pass.json` or generated in runtime (`manifest.json`, `signature` and translation files).
Both Pass template will be read and pushed as they are in the resulting .zip file, while dynamic objects will be patched against `pass.json` or generated in runtime (`manifest.json`, `signature` and translation files).
All the static medias from both sources, will be read and pushed as they are in the resulting .zip file; dynamic object will be patched against `pass.json`, generated on runtime (`manifest.json`, `signature`) or merged if already existing (translation files).
This package comes with an [API documentation](./API.md), that makes available a series of methods to customize passes.
> ⚠ Do not rely on branches outside "master", as might not be stable and will be removed once merged.

##### Model
The first thing you'll have to do, is to start creating a model. A model is a folder in your project directory, with inside the basic pass infos, like the thumbnails, the icon, and the background and **pass.json** containing all the static infos about the pass, like Team identifier, Pass type identifier, colors, etc.

If starting from scratch, the preferred solution is to use the folder as model, as it will allow you to access easily all the files. Also, a buffer model is mainly designed for models that are ready to be used in your application.
Let's suppose you have a file `model.zip` stored somewhere: you unzip it in runtime and then get the access to its files as buffers. Those buffers should be available for the rest of your application run-time and you shouldn't be in need to read them every time you are going to create a pass.

> Using the .pass extension is a best practice, showing that the directory is a pass package.
> ([Build your first pass - Apple Developer Portal](https://apple.co/2LYXWo3)).
Following to this best practice, the package is set to require each model to have a **_.pass_** extension.
If the extension is not specified in the configuration (as in [Usage Example](#usage_example), at "model" key), it will be added forcefully.

You can also create `.lproj` folders (e.g. *en.lproj* or *it.lproj*) containing localized media. To include a folder or translate texts inside the pass, please refer to [Localizing Passes](./API.md#method_localize) in the API documentation.
To include a file that belongs to an `.lproj` folder in buffers, you'll just have to name a key like `en.lproj/thumbnail.png`.
##### Pass.json
Create a `pass.json` by taking example from examples folder models or the one provided by Apple for the [first tutorial](https://apple.co/2NA2nus) and fill it with the basic informations, that is `teamIdentifier`, `passTypeIdentifier` and all the other basic keys like pass type.

The idea to develop this package, was born during the Apple Developer Academy 17/18, in Naples, Italy, driven by the need to create an iOS app component regarding passes generation for events.
A big thanks to all the people and friends in the Apple Developer Academy (and not) that pushed me and helped me into realizing something like this and a big thanks to the ones that helped me to make technical choices.
