mirego / react-native-killswitch

The official React Native implementation of Mirego’s killswitch

React Native Killswitch is a library built by Mirego that allows mobile developers to apply
runtime version-specific behaviors to their React Native application.

What is Killswitch?

Killswitch is a clever control panel built by Mirego that allows mobile developers to apply runtime version-specific behaviors to their iOS or Android application.

Installation

npm install react-native-killswitch

Usage

The bare minimum needed to have a working killswitch is API keys for iOS and Android, the app language and the app version:

import { useKillswitch } from 'react-native-killswitch';

const { isOk } = useKillswitch({
  iosApiKey: iosApiKey,
  androidApiKey: androidApiKey,
  language: myAppLanguage,
  version: myAppVersion,
});

Options

• iosApiKey A string taken from your killswitch back-end. The killswitch back-end will use this to send the correct behavior to your iOS users.

• androidApiKey A string taken from your killswitch back-end. The killswitch back-end will use this to send the correct behavior to your Android users.

• language A language code like "en" or "de". The killswitch back-end will use this to send a localized message to your users.

• version A version number like "1.0.0". The killswitch back-end will use this to send the correct behavior to your users.

• apiHost The host of the killswitch back-end.

• useNativeUI Use native alerts to display messages. Defaults to true

• timeout A number of milliseconds to wait for the back-end before returning isOk = true. Defaults to 2000
