stringee-react-native-v2

Getting started

  1. In your terminal (Command Prompt in Windows), change into your React Native project's directory

  2. In your terminal (Command Prompt in Windows), run $ npm install [email protected]

React Native 0.60 or later and JDK 17 are required. Autolinking configures the native module automatically. Expo projects must use a development or production build; Expo Go is not supported because this package contains native code.

Installation

iOS

Stringee React Native SDK requires iOS 13.0 or later.

  1. Open ios/Podfile and set the platform to iOS 13.0 or later. The package resolves Stringee iOS SDK 2.0.2 from the CocoaPods trunk automatically; do not add a separate Stringee or WebRTC pod:

    platform :ios, '13.0'

  2. In your terminal, change into the iOS directory and run the following command:

    pod install

  3. After running CocoaPods, open the generated .xcworkspace file.

  4. Add camera and microphone usage descriptions to Info.plist if your app also uses call features:

    <key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) uses Camera</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) uses Microphone</string>

Android

Use an AndroidX-enabled project with minSdkVersion 21 or later.

  1. Permissions

    The Stringee Android SDK requires some permissions from your AndroidManifest

    • Open up android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
    • Add the following lines:
    <!--Internet-->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />

  2. ProGuard/R8 rules for Stringee and WebRTC are included in the package. Keep your application's existing minification configuration; you do not need to enable minification specifically for Stringee.

The package already declares Stringee Android SDK 2.1.18 and WebRTC 150.7871.01; do not add those native dependencies again in the app.
