iOS Setup
iOS requires a few extra steps that are not required for Android/Windows.
Enable Swift Modules
Because the iOS module uses Swift, if the user is using a standard react-native application they'll need to add support for Swift in the project. This can be easily by adding a swift file to the Xcode project -- could be called dummy.swift
and saying yes when prompted if you'd like to generate a bridging header.
Pod Install
You'll need to run a pod install
in order to install the native iOS dependencies
cd ios && pod install
Expo
You can now use React Native Track Player with Expo.
Start by creating a custom development client for your Expo app and then install React Native Track Player.
