Quick start guide

This guide is designed to get you up and running with Mobile Messaging SDK plugin for React Native:

1. Make sure to setup application at Infobip portal, if you haven't already.

2. Add MobileMessaging plugin to your project, run in terminal:

   $ npm install infobip-mobile-messaging-react-native-plugin

   TypeScript's definitions are included into npm package

3. Configure platforms

   • iOS

     Notice

     Starting from the 6.2.0 plugin version it's not mandatory to add use_frameworks! to the Podfile, check the Migration guide if you want to get rid of it.

     1. Run pod install from /ios folder (installs Mobile Messaging native SDK)
     2. Import following header #import <MobileMessaging/MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate.h> and add [MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate install]; into /ios/<ProjectName>/AppDelegate.m (this is required for OS callbacks such as didRegisterForRemoteNotifications to be intercepted by native MobileMessaging SDK)

         ...
         #import <MobileMessaging/MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate.h>
        
         @implementation AppDelegate
     
         - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
         {
             [MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate install];
             ...
         }
         ...

     3. Configure your project to support Push Notification as described in item 2 of iOS integration quick start guide
     4. Integrate Notification Service Extension into your app in order to obtain:
        • more accurate processing of messages and delivery stats
        • support of rich notifications on the lock screen

   • Android

     1. Following paths should be provided in .bash_profile

        export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
        export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator
        export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
        export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin
        export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

     2. Add 'com.google.gms:google-services' to android/build.gradle file

        buildscript {
           ...
           dependencies {
               ...
              //GMS Gradle plugin
              classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
           }
        }

        And add apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' at the end of your android/app/build.gradle in order to apply Google Services Gradle Plugin

     3. Add a Firebase configuration file (google-services.json) as described in Firebase documentation. Check Applying Firebase configuration in MobileMessaging SDK Guide for alternatives.

     Notice (when targeting Android 13):

     Starting from Android 13, Google requires to ask user for notification permission. Follow this guide to make a permission request.

Initialization configuration

Initialize Mobile Messaging React Native plugin, provide application configuration in init method:

someMethod(): void {
   ...

           mobileMessaging.init(
                   {
                      applicationCode: '<your app code>',
                      ios: {
                         notificationTypes: ['alert', 'badge', 'sound'],
                      },

                   },
           );
}

import { mobileMessaging } from 'infobip-mobile-messaging-react-native-plugin';

someMethod(): void {
   ...

           mobileMessaging.init(
                   {
                      applicationCode: '<your app code>',
                      ios: {

                   () => {
                      console.log('MobileMessaging started');
                   },
                   (error: MobileMessagingError) => {
                      console.log('MobileMessaging error: ', error);
                   },
           );
}
