Using the react-native-daily-js library

JavaScript for mobile call management

react-native-daily-js is the React Native counterpart to daily-js. If you’ve worked with daily-js or read our documentation, using react-native-daily-js will feel familiar.

With our React Native library you can:

• Manage call lifecycle and participant state
• Respond to in-call events

Minimum OS/SDK versions

react-native-daily-js supports the following OS/SDK versions:

• iOS: Deployment target >= 10.0
• Android: minSdkVersion >= 23

Installing the library

The easiest way to get started is to install react-native-daily-js along with its peer dependencies using npm (referring to the README for up-to-date versions).

1
npm i @daily-co/react-native-daily-js @react-native-async-storage/async-storage@^1.15.7 react-native-background-timer@^2.3.1
2
npm i --save-exact @daily-co/react-native-webrtc@111.0.0-daily.2

After that:

• If your project uses Expo, use the config-plugin-rn-daily-js configuration package to automatically configure your project.
• If your project is a "bare" React Native project, follow the platform-specific installation instructions for the platforms you wish to use.

Once you’ve successfully installed the library and configured your project, you can join a call like you would in daily-js:

To finish wiring up the call to your UI, continue following these instructions.

We've also created a demo app if you prefer to start with a few building blocks.
