import RNBluetoothInfo from 'react-native-bluetooth-info';

class App extends Component<{}> {

  constructor(props) {
    super(props);

    this.state = {
      connectionState : ''
    }
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    RNBluetoothInfo.getCurrentState().then(this.handleConnection)
  }

  componentWillMount() {
    RNBluetoothInfo.addEventListener('change', this.handleConnection);
  }

  componentWillUnmount() {
    RNBluetoothInfo.removeEventListener('change', this.handleConnection)
  }

  handleConnection = (resp) => {
    let {connectionState} = resp.type;  
    console.log('type ', connectionState);
    this.setState({connectionState});
  }

  checkBluetooth = () => {
    RNBluetoothInfo.getCurrentState().then(resp =>{ 
      let {connectionState} = resp.type;  
      this.setState({connectionState});
    } )
  }

  render() {
