Lightbase React Native Template

Initialise new project with the template

npx react-native init LightbaseProjectName --template react-native-template-lightbase yarn install - will also configure husky pre commits for semantic realse conformity

Pre-requisites after initialisation

Semantic relases and commitlint with husky

• appcenter build scripts manage the semantic relases with automated changelogs and release commits
• commits need to conform to the commitlint config chore: feat: fix: types are currently only supported

Setup git branches

• development branch (main) - alpha release cycle
• acceptance branch - rc pre-release cycle
• production branch - main release cycle

Create Appcenter projects for android and iOS

• ENV VARIABLES within appcenter
  • GITHUB_TOKEN - used for semantic relases
  • SKIP_FLIPPER=YES - improves iOS build times considerably
• Add build pipelines for android and ios (development and production)

Setup Codepush for iOS and android projects

• Copy codepush staging tokens to env.staging and .env
• Copy codepush production tokens to env.staging and .env

Setup sentry project

• Add new sentry project
• run npx @sentry/wizard -i reactNative -p ios android
• App.js does not exist so patch will not happen, copy sentry dsn to index.js file

Create private github repo for fastlane match provisioning profiles and certificate handling

• TODO

Updating Template

• Template should be updated on any major RN release
• Add GITHUB_TOKEN to your bash or zshl profile
• run npx semantic-release --no-ci
