Linking libraries

Used to link the native components/modules to the React Native app. The native features are exposed as independent static libraries.

Automatic linking ​

npx react-native link usually does the job. It goes through dependencies/devDependencies in package.json and links the libraries with native dependencies automagically.

iOS ​

If the iOS project is using CocoaPods (contains Podfile) and the library has podspec file, react-native link will add the library to Podfile.

Manual linking ​

iOS ​

  1. Drag the library's .xcodeproj file inside Libraries in Xcode.
  2. Go to Project -> Build Phases
  3. Drag the static library from Libraries -> library -> Products to Link Binary With Libraries section.
  4. (optional) Include the path to the library in Project -> Build Settings -> Header Search Paths (non-recursive) - this is needed if you need to call the native parts of the library from the native part of the app that you're developing.

Android ​

  1. Add dependency path to settings.gradle:
gradle
include ':react-native-ble-manager'
project(':react-native-ble-manager').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-ble-manager/android')
  1. Add implementation <library_name> to app.build.gradle:
gradle
dependencies {
    compile project(':react-native-ble-manager')
}
  1. Import the native package in MainApplication.java:
java
import it.innove.BleManagerPackage;

public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
		@Override
		protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
				return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
						new MainReactPackage(),
						new BleManagerPackage()
				);
		}
}
