Auth0 React Native Samples - Login

The complete guide to getting started with react-native-auth0 is our React Native QuickStart.

1. Install

Clone the repository and install the dependencies with Yarn:

git clone git@github.com:auth0-samples/auth0-react-native-sample.git
cd auth0-react-native-sample/00-login-hooks
yarn install

iOS Applications only

Change the directory into the ios folder and run the following command to install the SDK pod with CocoaPods:

cd ios
pod install

You should see the A0Auth0 pod being installed and linked to the sample app.

Android applications only

Open the android/app/build.gradle file and locate the following manifest placeholders:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        manifestPlaceholders = [auth0Domain: "YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN",
                                auth0Scheme: "${applicationId}"]
    }
    ...
}

Replace YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN with your Auth0 domain value. If you have samples.auth0.com as your Auth0 domain you would have a configuration like the following:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        manifestPlaceholders = [auth0Domain: "samples.auth0.com",
                                auth0Scheme: "${applicationId}"]
    }
    ...
}

The applicationId value will be auto-replaced at runtime with the package name or ID of your application (e.g. com.example.app).

2. Configure Auth0

Copy the app/auth0-configuration.js.example in this sample to app/auth0-configuration.js.
Open your Applications in the Auth0 dashboard.
Select your existing Application from the list or click Create Application at the top to create a new Application of type Native.
On the Settings tab for the Application, copy the "Client ID" and "Domain" values and paste them into the app/auth0-configuration.js file created above.
In the Allowed Callback URLs field, paste in the text below and replace YOUR_DOMAIN with the Domain from above. These URLs are required for the authentication result to be redirected from the browser to the app:

com.auth0samples://YOUR_DOMAIN/ios/com.auth0samples/callback,
com.auth0samples://YOUR_DOMAIN/android/com.auth0samples/callback

Add the same values to the Allowed Logout URLs field as well. These are required for the browser to redirect back to the app after the user logs out.
Scroll down and click Save Changes.

3. Run The App

Run your app on an emulator, simulator, or your own connected device.

To run the app on iOS run yarn run ios.
To run the app on Android run yarn run android.

The first run may take a while to fully launch. Keep an eye out for confirmation windows and watch the terminal for output and results.
