Call for ios

[kiok46]

Some days ago a user on IRC was asking about calling feature for ios, Here it is.
I have not tested it yet, maybe I will do it in a couple of days.

Maybe it was me! Thanks, I'll check it as soon as I get testing device.

Nope, it breaks with
'NSURL' object is not callable
on iPhone 6 and simulators (not sure if simulators do have any mock call implementation, but error is the same as on a real device). Or I'm doing something wrong since I didn't find any call documentation: if it needs some permissions like GPS or if there is a required format for number input.
Further input would be appreciated!

Ok, sorry for delay, we were busy making our app ready for AppStore.
But thanks to you, it will be rolling out with call feature! ^_~+
We use call button to let our user call service operator right from the app.
That how feature first worked with last fixes on test: (it's purely local service so it's untranslated except my notes)

# App
def calltest(self):
   try:
      plyer.call.makecall(tel='8965?????28') #  NOTE edited for privacy
   except Exception as exc:
      pass

# kv
BoxLayout:
   orientation: "vertical"
   size_hint: 1, 0.6
   spacing: "4sp"
   FixWidthButton:
       text: "КАРТА"
       on_release: app.activate_screen('scr_map')
   FixWidthButton:
       text: "ОБРАТНАЯ СВЯЗЬ"
       on_release: app.activate_screen('scr_feed')
   FixWidthButton:
       text: "Звонок ТЕСТ"
       on_release: app.calltest() #  <- this one
   FixWidthButton:
       text: "РЕГИСТРАЦИЯ"
       on_release: app.activate_screen('scr_reg')
   FixWidthButton:
      text: app.btn_account_loginout_text
      on_release: app.btn_account_loginout_action()

both screenshots are taken from same iphone 6s, regrettably I was unable to find a way to show status bar in app yet, so you can't see it on first one

I was told that call is aborted when taking screencapture on iphone, so it's finished on this one (but I got the call alright, ofc)
