Incoming Call
React Native module to display custom incoming call activity, best result when using with firebase background messaging. Only for Android since iOS we have VoIP.
Yes I heard you could use self managed ConnectionService thing. But since I'm not an Android expert, this is a solution I found acceptable.
You could also wait for this feature request from react-native-callkeep to be resolved and have an easier life.
Getting started
$ npm install react-native-ic --save
Addition installation step
In AndroidManifest.xml:
-
Add
<activity android:name="com.incomingcall.UnlockScreenActivity" />line between<application>tag. -
Add
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />permission. -
Also, it's recommend to put
android:launchMode="singleInstance"in<activity android:name=".MainActivity"...tag to prevent duplicate activities.
For RN >= 0.60, it's done. Otherwise:
$ react-native link react-native-ic-android
Usage
In App.js:
import {useEffect} from 'react';
import {DeviceEventEmitter, Platform} from 'react-native';
import IncomingCall from 'react-native-ic';
// Listen to cancel and answer call events
useEffect(() => {
if (Platform.OS === "android") {
/**
* App open from killed state (headless mode)
*/
const payload = await IncomingCall.getExtrasFromHeadlessMode();
console.log('launchParameters', payload);
if (payload) {
// Start call action here. You probably want to navigate to some CallRoom screen with the payload.uuid.
}
/**
* App in foreground / background: listen to call events and determine what to do next
*/
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("endCall", payload => {
// End call action here
});
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("answerCall", payload => {
// Start call action here. You probably want to navigate to some CallRoom screen with the payload.uuid.
});
}
}, []);In index.js or anywhere firebase background handler lies:
import messaging from '@react-native-firebase/messaging';
import {DeviceEventEmitter} from 'react-native';
import IncomingCall from 'react-native-ic';
messaging().setBackgroundMessageHandler(async remoteMessage => {
// Receive remote message
if (remoteMessage?.notification?.title === 'Incoming Call') {
// Display incoming call activity.
IncomingCall.display(
'callUUIDv4', // Call UUID v4
'Quocs', // Username
'https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/16166195', // Avatar URL
'Incomming Call', // Info text
20000 // Timeout for end call after 20s
);
} else if (remoteMessage?.notification?.title === 'Missed Call') {
// Terminate incoming activity. Should be called when call expired.
IncomingCall.dismiss();
}
// Listen to headless action events
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("endCall", payload => {
// End call action here
});
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("answerCall", (payload) => {
console.log('answerCall', payload);
if (payload.isHeadless) {
// Called from killed state
IncomingCall.openAppFromHeadlessMode(payload.uuid);
} else {
// Called from background state
IncomingCall.backToForeground();
}
});
});
