Link SDK React Native Wrapper

The React Native Wrapper for LinkSDK allows you to do all the functions that can be achieved with the LinkSDK on web, from linking bank accounts to initiating payments.

Usage

The Wrapper uses a ref to access internal functions.

import React, { useRef } from 'react'
import { View, TouchableOpacity, Text } from 'react-native'
import LinkSDK from 'lean-react-native'

const App = () => {
    const Lean = useRef(null)

    return (
        <View>
            <TouchableOpacity 
                onPress={() => Lean.current.link({ customer_id: "CUSTOMER_ID" })}
            >
                <Text>Link Account</Text>
            </TouchableOpacity>

            <LinkSDK
                ref={Lean}
                appToken="MY_APP_TOKEN"
                version="{version_number}"
                country="{country_of_operation}"
                sandbox
            />
        </View>
    )
}

export default App

Callbacks

By providing a callback into the component, the LinkSDK will report back with an object in the following format:

{
    method: "LINK",
    status: "SUCCESS",
    message: "Some message about the state of the application",
    exit_point: "SUCCESS",
    secondary_status: "SUCCESS",

        bank_identifier: "DIB_UAE",
        is_supported: true
    }
}

Troubleshooting

Webview crashes on Android

You can disable hardware acceleration on the webview by passing android specific props into the webview:

<LinkSDK
    webViewProps={{
        androidHardwareAccelerationDisabled: true,
    }}
    appToken: "YOUR_APP_TOKEN"
    sandbox: false
>

JDK version issues on Android

You may get gradle errors if you have a different JDK on the development system compared to the local JDK delivered with the Android SDK. The solution is to set JAVA_HOME in gradlew or gradlew.bat to point to the SDK JDK path. On Windows:

SET JAVA_HOME="\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre"
