• Add new ODAppUpdatePackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method

2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:

implementation project(':react-native-app-update')

Setup iOS

1. Open up AppDelegate.m

• Add a new import #import <ODAppUpdate/AppUpdateListenerSingleton.h>

• Add a private interface :

@interface AppDelegate () <AppVersionListener>


@end

• Add [AppUpdateListenerSingleton sharedManager:self]; in the method application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
• Add the new protocol:

- (void)checkMigrationAppVersion:(NSMutableDictionary*)storedVersion
		andCurrentVersion:(NSMutableDictionary*)currentVersion {
  int majorStoredVersion = [[storedVersion objectForKey:@"major"]intValue];
  int minorStoredVersion = [[storedVersion objectForKey:@"minor"]intValue];
  int versionStoredCode = [[storedVersion objectForKey:@"version"]intValue];
  
  int majorCurrentVersion = [[currentVersion objectForKey:@"major"]intValue];
  int minorCurrentVersion = [[currentVersion objectForKey:@"minor"]intValue];
  int versionCurrentCode = [[currentVersion objectForKey:@"version"]intValue];
  
  // Check and handle app version update
}

Setup Android

1. Open up MainApplication.java:

• Add in the getPackages method:

new ODAppUpdatePackage(new AppVersionListener() {  
	    @Override  
	    public void checkMigrationAppVersion(Map<String, Integer> storedVersion,
	    			Map<String, Integer> currentversion) {
            int majorStoredVersion = storedVersion.get("major");
            int minorStoredVersion = storedVersion.get("minor");
            int versionStoredCode = storedVersion.get("version");
	    
            int majorCurrentVersion = currentversion.get("major");
            int minorCurrentVersion = currentversion.get("minor");
            int versionCurrentCode = currentversion.get("version");
	    
	    // Check and handle app version update
        }  
})

Usage

The version of your project must respect the following format : Major.Minor.Version. For example, it can be : 1.0.0.

import  ODAppUpdate  from  'react-native-app-update';

// Put this where you want to check and handle the app update
// (maybe in the constructor of your App component ?)
ODAppUpdate.appVersion()
      .then(response => {
      	let majorStoredVersion = response.currentStoredVersion.major;
        let minorStoredVersion = response.currentStoredVersion.minor;
        let versionStoredCode = response.currentStoredVersion.version;

        let majorCurrentVersion = response.currentVersion.major;
        let minorCurrentVersion = response.currentVersion.minor;
        let versionCurrentCode = response.currentVersion.version;
	
        // Handle new update
      })
      .catch(error => {
        // An error occured
      });
