react-native-simple-audio

Install

yarn add react-native-simple-audio

iOS

cd ios && pod install && cd .. # CocoaPods on iOS needs this extra step

Run

react-native run-ios

or build manually:

1. xed -b ios
2. Run project in Xcode

NOTE ABOUT iOS USAGE

Currently, there are two other changes that need to take place before the app will properly build.

1. This package has a minimum requirement of iOS 10.0. So if you are building an application for anything lower than 10.0, you need to go into <YOUR PROJECT>/ios/Podfile and change the first line to platform :ios, '10.0'.
2. There's a strange build issue that seems to sometimes occur with Swift based custom modules: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52536380/why-linker-link-static-libraries-with-errors-ios/54586937#54586937 Following these steps fixes the issue. I will work on either automating this or hopefully a future version of RN will eliminate the need.

Example usage

import {
  ActivityIndicator,
  Button,
  View,
  Text
} from 'react-native';

import { useAudioPlayer } from 'react-native-simple-audio';

export const Player = ({ url }) => {
  const [player, error] = useAudioPlayer(url);

  if (error) {
		// handle error
    console.log(error);
  }

  return (
    <View>
      {player.status.loading && !player.status.ready ? (
        <ActivityIndicator size="large" />
      ) : (
          <>
            <Button
              title={`${player.status.playing ? 'Pause' : 'Play'}`}
              color="#f194ff"
              onPress={player.toggleAudio}
            />
            <Button
              title="Back 20 seconds"
              color="#f194ff"
              onPress={() => player.seekBackwards(20)}
            />
            <Button
              title="Forward 20 seconds"
              color="#f194ff"
              onPress={() => player.seekForwards(20)}
            />
            <Text>
            {player.status.currentTime.formatted} - 
            {player.status.duration.formatted}
            </Text>
          </>
        )}
    </View>
  )
};

// Player component usage with remote url
<Player url="www.site.com/foo.mp3" />

TODO

• Add full example
• Add Android functionality
