I am trying to set up android app link for my app. The problem is that the intent is received by an activity and I need to send this event to my javascript code(to navigate to the correct screen) through RCTDeviceEventEmitter but for this to happen I need to get react context somehow in my activity's code...I have no idea how to do this..This is what I have tried:
public class NewFriendActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(null);
class ReactContextFetcher extends ReactContextBaseJavaModule {
@Override
public String getName() {
return "ReactContextFetcher";
}
public ReactContext fetchReactContext() {
return getReactApplicationContext();
}
}
Intent intent = getIntent();
String data = intent.getData().toString();
String user = data.split("/add-friend/")[1];
Log.d("obscure_tag", user);
ReactContext rContext = new ReactContextFetcher().fetchReactContext();
Log.d("obscure_tag", "this is run as well..");
sendEvent(rContext, "NewFriend", user);
}
private void sendEvent(ReactContext reactContext,
String eventName, String user) {
reactContext
.getJSModule(DeviceEventManagerModule.RCTDeviceEventEmitter.class)
.emit(eventName, user);
}
}
"user" gets logged but "this is run as well.." doesn't, the app crashes before that..So I get that fetchReactContext() is not the correct way to get react context..I referred to this but actually I did not understand what that guy is trying to say..How should I get react context in this situation?
