Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

react-native-appchecker

v0.1.4

Published

check third party app installation and open app

Readme

Here’s the revised README.md with the additional note in proper English:


react-native-appchecker

Easily check if a third-party app is installed and launch it directly from your React Native app.

Installation

Install the package using npm:

npm install react-native-appchecker  

Configuration

For iOS, add the third-party app scheme to your Info.plist:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>  
<array>  
    <string>third_party_app_schema</string>  
</array>  

Note: To check or open a third-party app on iOS, you must provide the app's scheme. For Android, you need to provide the app's package name.

Usage

Import the AppChecker module in your React Native application:

import AppChecker from 'react-native-appchecker';  

Check if a third-party app is installed

const isInstalled = await AppChecker.checkThirdPartyApp('third_party_app_name');  
if (isInstalled) {  
    console.log('App is installed!');  
} else {  
    console.log('App is not installed.');  
}  

Open a third-party app

await AppChecker.openThirdPartyApp('third_party_app_name');  

Example

import React from 'react';  
import { Button, Alert } from 'react-native';  
import AppChecker from 'react-native-appchecker';  

const App = () => {  
    const checkApp = async () => {  
        const isInstalled = await AppChecker.checkThirdPartyApp('third_party_app_name');  
        Alert.alert(isInstalled ? 'App is installed!' : 'App is not installed.');  
    };  

    const openApp = async () => {  
        try {  
            await AppChecker.openThirdPartyApp('third_party_app_name');  
        } catch (error) {  
            Alert.alert('Error', 'Could not open the app.');  
        }  
    };  

    return (  
        <>  
            <Button title="Check App" onPress={checkApp} />  
            <Button title="Open App" onPress={openApp} />  
        </>  
    );  
};  

export default App;
