Sample JavaScript React-Native Redux

SendBird React-Native sample using SendBird SDK

Prerequisite

• Node
• NPM
• Cocoapods
• XCode
• XCode Command Line Tools
• Android Studio (+Android SDK/Google API)

Run the sample

1. Install React Native CLI

    npm install -g react-native-cli
   

2. Install required packages

    npm install
   

3. (iOS only) Pod install

    cd ios
    pod install
    pod update
   

4. (iOS only) Add library in XCode

• Open XCode and load workspace, you should load *.xcworkspace

5. Run the sample. Before starting, you should launch device emulator (or actual device) to run the sample in Android. This sample is not available for real device in iOS due to Apple Development Policy. In order to run React Native sample in real device, follow React Native official guide for your own setup

    react-native run-android
    react-native run-ios
   

For iOS, you may also launch directly from Xcode

You don't need to do manual linking, i.e. react-native link <package-name>

Troubleshooting

1. General
   • After each of these you might want to rebuild the project and run*
   • You can run npm run clear from root directory, this might help to solve some issues and clean old builds
   • Sometimes it is advised to delete package-lock.json, but we do not recommend it for compatibility issues, do it at your own risk
   • Make sure you have prerequisite software installed before your run this app, they can be found here: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started
   • Sometimes deleting node_modules folder and reinstalling the dependencies again helps
2. iOS
   • Clean the build Cmd+Shift+K, also just rebuilding without cleaning the build can work sometimes
   • Do pod update and then pod install in the ios/ folder
   • Delete the ios/build folder
   • It is better not to change any build phases, rules, settings in XCode, as it may cause further issues
   • It is better to not update packages in package.json, or ios/Pods, or Android packages versions
     • Or do it very carefully
   • If you have an issue/error try to Google that and follow the instructions
3. Android
   • If you run on real device, check if everything installed and especially Android studio
   • Check if your device is visible by adb devices, sometimes it may not work or have lags. In this case call: adb kill-server and adb start-server
   • You might build the project using react-native run-android, but if it fails you might need to run it with Android studio
