Authgear sample for React Native

This repo demonstrates how to add authentication to an React Native app using Authgear.

Project setup

Create Free Authgear Account

  1. Goto https://portal.authgear.com and create a free account (or login to your existing account).

  2. Then navigate to Applications and create a new client application of type Native App.

Configuration

Download/clone the code from this repo then update the configuration.

The project needs to be configured with your Authgear client application's Endpoint and Client ID in order for the authentication flow to work.

To do this, create a .env file in the root directory of the project then copy and paste the content of .env.template to it.

Add the values for your own Authgear client application's Client ID and Endpoint in the corresponding key.

To run this example app, add the following URI to your Authgear client application's Authorized Redirect URI:

  • com.authgear.example.rn://host/path

To test the app on iOS or Android, run the following commands: Install dependencies

npm install
(cd ios && pod install)

Run on iOS

npm run ios

Run on Android

npm run android
