React Native Twilio IP Messaging

React Native wrapper for the Twilio IP Messaging SDKs

####Changelog

Installation

npm install --save react-native-twilio-ip-messaging

iOS

Install the Twilio IP Messaging SDK and this package via CocoaPods.
See the full Podfile example for more details.

pod 'RCTTwilioIPMessaging', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-twilio-ip-messaging/ios'

source 'https://github.com/twilio/cocoapod-specs'
pod 'TwilioIPMessagingClient', '~> 0.14.2'

Note: the underlying Twilio SDKs require a minimum deployment target of 8.1. If your project's target is less than this you will get a CocoaPods install error (Unable to satisfy the following requirements...).

Make sure that you add the $(inherited) value to Other Linker Flags and Framework Search Paths for your target's Build Settings. This is also assuming you have already loaded React via CocoaPods as well.

Android

In android/settings.gradle:

include ':RCTTwilioIPMessaging', ':app'
project(':RCTTwilioIPMessaging').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-twilio-ip-messaging/android')

In android/app/build.gradle:

...
dependencies {
    ...
    compile project(':RCTTwilioIPMessaging')
}

Register the module in MainActivity.java by calling addPackage():

// import package
import com.bradbumbalough.RCTTwilioIPMessaging.RCTTwilioIPMessagingPackage;

...

// register package in getPackages()
@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
    return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
        ... other packages
        new RCTTwilioIPMessagingPackage(),
        new MainReactPackage()
    );
}

Note: You might have to enable multidex in your build.gradle file and increase the heap size if you're getting errors while buliding. The minSdkVersion must also be at least 19, per the Twilio SDKs.

android {
    ....
    dexOptions {
        javaMaxHeapSize "2048M"
    }

    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 19
        multiDexEnabled true
    }

Usage

/* Initialization */

let {
    AccessManager,
    Client,
    Constants
} = require('react-native-twilio-ip-messaging')

// create the access manager
var accessManager = new AccessManager(token);

// specify any handlers for events
accessManager.onTokenExpired = () => {
    getNewTokenFromServer()
    .then(accessManager.updateToken)
}

// create the client
var client = new Client(accessManager);

// specify any global events
client.onError = ({error, userInfo}) => console.log(error)

// initialize the client
client.initialize()

// wait for sync to finish
client.onClientSynchronized = () => {
    client.getChannels()
    .then((channels) => console.log(channels))
}

/* Individual Channel */

// somehow an instance of Channel is passed down in the app
var channel = this.props.channel

// specify channel specific events
channel.onMessageAdded = (message) => console.log(message.author + ": " + message.body)
channel.onTypingStarted = (member) => console.log(member.identity + " started typing...")
channel.onTypingEnded = (member) => console.log(member.identity + " stopped typing...")
channel.onMemberAdded = (member) => console.log(member.identity + " joined " + channel.friendlyName)

// sending a message
<TextInput
    onChangeText={(body) => {
        this.setState({body})
        channel.typing()
    }}
    onSubmitEditing={() => channel.sendMessage(this.state.body)}
/>
