Jitsi Meet wrapper for react-native. This package was made as the react-native-jitsi-meet is kind of outdated and no one is releasing any new version of it with new jitsi meet sdk
npm install react-native-jitsi-meet-extended
or
yarn add react-native-jitsi-meet-extended
At the moment this package only works with Android as I don't own a Mac to develop and test it for IOS, Hope to see some community support for developing it and also one of my friend will soon start looking into the IOS part. Also, there may be some bugs and issues in the java code, it would be great if some super devs from the community can verify and correct them :) + there are issues with TS as I'm not that much into typescript.
There seems to be an issue with latest react-native version 0.64 with jitsi sdk, as buttons are unresponsive and other bugs, so until the issue is sorted out it is advised to use the 0.63

- In android/build.gradle, add the following code
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
maven { // <---- Add this block
url "https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/raw/master/releases"
}
maven {
// All of React Native (JS, Obj-C sources, Android binaries) is installed from npm
url("$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android")
}
maven {
// Android JSC is installed from npm
url("$rootDir/../node_modules/jsc-android/dist")
}
google()
jcenter()
maven { url 'https://www.jitpack.io' }
}
}
- Set minimum SDK level to 24
buildscript {
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 24 // <-- this line
compileSdkVersion = 29
targetSdkVersion = 29
ndkVersion = "20.1.5948944"
}
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0")
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
- Remove allow back up from Androidmanifest.xml
Checking on how this can be fixed but for now, remove it from xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.sdktest">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:name=".MainApplication"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:allowBackup="false" <-- this line
android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|uiMode"
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
- In android/app/src/main/java/com/xxx/MainApplication.java add/replace the following methods:
import androidx.annotation.Nullable; // <--- Add this line if not already existing
public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
private final ReactNativeHost mReactNativeHost =
new ReactNativeHost(this) {
@Override
public boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {
return BuildConfig.DEBUG;
}
@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
@SuppressWarnings("UnnecessaryLocalVariable")
List<ReactPackage> packages = new PackageList(this).getPackages();
// Packages that cannot be autolinked yet can be added manually here, for example:
// packages.add(new MyReactNativePackage());
return packages;
}
@Override
protected String getJSMainModuleName() {
return "index";
}
@Override // <-- Add this method if does not exist
protected @Nullable String getBundleAssetName() {
return "app.bundle";
}
};
The package can be invoked in two modes
- As an intent from react-native app
- As a view that can be embedded inside the react-native app
For checking props that can be passed, please check the section after example section
import * as React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, View, Text, TouchableOpacity } from 'react-native';
import { JitsiMeetExtended, JitsiMeetView } from 'react-native-jitsi-meet-extended';
export default function App() {
const runActivity = () => {
const options = {
roomId: "cowboybtr125d44d5",
userInfo: {
displayName: "APJ"
}
}
JitsiMeetExtended.activityMode(options)
}
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={runActivity} style={styles.button}>
<Text>Start meet activity</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 0.9,
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
},
button: {
borderRadius: 10,
width: 250,
height: 50,
padding:10,
margin:10,
borderWidth:2,
borderColor: "gray",
justifyContent:"center",
alignItems:"center",
}
});
This will start Jitsi meet on top of your application.

userInfo: {

)}
<TouchableOpacity onPress={runMeet} style={styles.button}>
<Text>Start meet as view inside app</Text>
