Installing React-native SDK

$ npm install @useriq/useriq-react-native --save

Note: Before npm 5.0.0 the --save flag is required in this step. React Native will link modules based on dependencies in your package.json file.

Or in case you prefer yarn over npm, use the following command

yarn add @useriq/useriq-react-native

Linking the project

Autolinking

• If using React Native 0.60+

  CLI autolink feature links the module while building the app.

• If using React Native <= 0.59

  $ react-native link @useriq/useriq-react-native

If you can't or don't want to use the CLI tool, you can also manually link the library using the instructions below

Manual linking

1. Install UserIQ framework via Cocoapods in the iOS folder of your app project

pod 'UserIQ'

2. Follow the instructions in the React Native documentation to manually link the framework

1. Open up android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainApplication.java

• Add import com.useriq.rn.UserIQReactNativePackage; to the imports at the top of the file
• Add new UserIQReactNativePackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method

2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:

   include ':@useriq_useriq-react-native'
   project(':@useriq_useriq-react-native').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@useriq/useriq-react-native/android')

3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:

    implementation project(':@useriq_useriq-react-native')

Usage

1. Initialization

Initialize UserIQ sdk as eary as possible. UserIQ.init() method needs to be called atleast once after the root component / application is mounted

import React from 'react';
import UserIQ from '@useriq/useriq-react-native'

export class App extends React.Component {

  componentDidMount() {
    UserIQ.init('<YOUR_MOBILE_API_KEY>')
  }
  ...
}

Note: The <YOUR_MOBILE_API_KEY> is available in the mobile dashboard under the App Settings page.

1a. Initialize for multiple platforms

If you have single code base for both iOS & Android & if you want to initialize SDK for both platforms, you can initialze using Platform.select. If not skip to step 2.

import React from 'react';
import { Platform } from 'react-native';
import UserIQ from '@useriq/useriq-react-native'

export class App extends React.Component {

  componentDidMount() {
    Platform.select({
      ios: () => UserIQ.init('IOS_API_KEY'),
      android: () => UserIQ.init('ANDROID_API_KEY'),
    })()
  }
  ...
}

This will automatically choose the right api_key for the appropriate platform & initialize it. An anonymous user is set and SDK is initiated

Note: The IOS_API_KEY & ANDROID_API_KEY is available in the mobile dashboard under the App Settings page.

2. Set loggedin user

SDK initialization itself doesnt send any data to UserIQ server until setUser() is called. So after user is sucessfully logged in, call setUser() with required params. id, name, email, accountId, accountName and signUpDate are mandatory parameters to be passed and values should be passed String

import React from 'react'
import UserIQ from '@useriq/useriq-react-native'

class LoginComponent extends React.Component {
  onLoginSuccess(user) {
    UserIQ.setUser({
      id: user.id,
      name: user.name,
      email: user.email,
      accountId: user.accountId,
      accountName: user.accountName,
      signUpDate: user.signUpDate,
      custom_parameter_1: "custom_value_1",
      custom_parameter_2: "custom_value_2"
    })
  }
}

Note: Ensure that id, name, email, accountId, accountName & signUpDate are sent as string

3. Logout

If a user logs out, the user can be reset to anonymous user just by calling the logout API. Make sure this method is called when the user logs out, so that login screen tracking and other information not related to the user does not get linked to the user.

  UserIQ.logOut()
