android/app/build.gradle

   ...
   compile project(':rn-mediawesome')
}

MainApplication.java

On top, where imports are:

import br.com.universomw8.rnmediawseome.RNMediawesomePackage;

Add the RNMediawesomePackage class to your list of exported packages.

@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
    return Arrays.asList(
            new MainReactPackage(),
            new RNMediawesomePackage()
    );
}

Usage

Just import,

import { MediawesomePlayer, MediawesomeController } from 'rn-mediawesome'

render,

<MediawesomePlayer width={1920} height={1080} alpha={0} />

create playlists by passing a list of locally available files,

this.uid = await MediawesomeController.createPlaylist(['/absolute/path/to/file.mp4'])

and start playback of a playlist

MediawesomeController.startPlaylist(this.uid)

Other available controls are:

MediawesomeController.showScreen()
MediawesomeController.hideScreen()
MediawesomeController.stopPlayback()
MediawesomeController.isPlaying()
MediawesomeController.getCurrentPlaylist() // returns the current playlist uid
MediawesomeController.getAllPlaylists() // returns a list of uid's
MediawesomeController.getPlaylist(uid) // returns a list of absolute paths, or null

All MediawesomeController methods are promise-based
