BIQ SDK for React Native (Expo module)

Development

Expo module

Inside project's root:

1. Install dependencies

npm install

2. Build plugin - run after making changes to plugin in /plugin

npm run prepare

3. Build module and watch for changes

npm run build

Example app

Inside /example folder:

1. Install dependencies

npm install

2. Configure Expo modules - run after making changes to module's plugin or /example/app.json

npx expo prebuild

Might also require pod reinstalation for iOS:

cd ios
pod install

3. [optional] Run on Android emulator (BLE features will not work on emulator, but it is useful for testing the build process)

npx expo run:android

4. [optional] Run on Android device

npx expo run:android --device

5. [optional] Build Android apk in /example/android/app/build/outputs/apk/release/app-release.apk

npm run build:android

Requesting iOS permissions

At the moment we use react-native-permissions to request Android and iOS permissions. This is now a required peer dependency and needs to be installed in the app implementing the SDK:

npm i @biqprotocol/react-native react-native-permissions

This is because Expo will not autolink a module if it is not present in the dependencies section of the react-native application.
