README
Amazon IVS React Native Broadcast
A React Native wrapper for the Amazon IVS iOS and Android broadcast SDKs.
⚠️ Note that the current module implementation doesn't support full functionality provided by Amazon IVS iOS and Android broadcast SDKs.
⚠️ Apps using amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast must target iOS 11 and Android 12 (API 31).
👉 Read more about broadcasting to Amazon IVS.
👉 See Amazon IVS streaming configuration guideline.
Installation
$ yarn add amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast
# --- or ---
$ npm install amazon-ivs-react-native-broadcast
$ cd ios && pod install && cd ..
IVSBroadcastCameraView component
Allows consumers to stream video from an active phone camera.
⚠️ Requirements
An application must request permission to access the user’s camera and microphone. This isn't specific to the component but required for any application that needs access to the cameras and microphones.
iOS
Add NSCameraUsageDescription and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription keys to the Info.plist file:
...
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>In order to stream your awesome video, allow access to camera please</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>In order to stream your awesome audio, allow access to microphone please</string>
...
Android
Add CAMERA and RECORD_AUDIO permissions to the AndroidManifest.xml file:
...
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
...
⚠️ On devices before SDK version 23, the permissions are automatically granted if they appear in the manifest, so check should always result to
trueand request should always resolve toPermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED, however if your app is installed on a device that runs Android 6.0 or higher, you must request the _dangerous permissions at runtime manually._
Example of requesting Android dangerous permissions at runtime could be found in the ./example/src/index.android.tsx file.
