/**
     * Create a customer in the Cloud4Wi account
     *
     * @param customer - user you want to create
     * @param deduplicate - attribute that will be used for customer deduplication.
     * @param onSuccess - invoked if customer successfully created
     * @param onError - invoked if exception occurred
     *
     * @return future with CustomerCreateResponse object which represents saved customer
     */
    public Future<CustomerCreateResponse> createCustomer(
                   Customer customer,
                   String deduplicate, 
                   Callback<CustomerCreateResponse> onSuccess, 
                   Callback<MobileSDKException> onError);

Calling this function It is equivalent to a make a login. The success of this function opens a session with the customer returned. To close the session use logout() method.

Customer deduplication

The deduplicate string is optional. If set, the system will check if an existing customer with a matching attribute already exists in the same Cloud4Wi account.

If a matching record exists, the createCustomer method will override the existing matching customer attributes with the one passed in the createCustomer (except for username, password, and source )

Pssible values of deduplicate string are:

"phoneNumber", "email", "extId", "extProp1", "extProp2"

To create a customer without any deduplicaiton check, set deduplicate string to null.

cloud4wiSDK.createCustomer(customer, null, ...)

Customer username and password

If username and password are not set in the Customer object, they are assigned randomly during the customer creation and returned to the app in the CustomerCreate Response object.

Examples

Create customer

Customer customer = new Customer();
customer.setFirstName("Luigi");
customer.setEmail("luigi@cloud4wi.com");

customer.addPolicy("termsOfUse", true);
customer.addPolicy("privacy", true);

//deduplication on email attributes
cloud4wiSDK.createCustomer(customer, "email", ...)

Create customer without deduplication

cloud4wiSDK.createCustomer(customer, null, ...)
