Initialization

API Interface / React Native

The MOVE SDK must be initialized natively. For the first init, the SDK expects to be setup after user onboarding using Javascript. In this case, Javascript passes the required auth code or MoveAuth, and MoveConfig objects.

In all future inits, the SDK expects to be initialized natively at app start points (In AppDelegate for iOS, and MainApplication for Android). This is to guarantee that the MOVE SDK is set up and active before the limited time provided by the OS in background wakeups is consumed.

The native init will re-use the last authentication and configs objects passed to the SDK from the JS initialization.

iOS

To initialize the SDK natively, in your AppDelegate:

triangle-exclamation
#import <ReactMoveSDK/MoveSdk.h>
...
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application willFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
  [RCTMoveSdk initIfPossibleWithLaunchOptions:launchOptions];
  return YES;
}

Android

To initialize the SDK natively, in your MainApplication:

import com.movesdk.NativeMoveSdkWrapper;
...
public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
	private NativeMoveSdkWrapper sdkWrapper;
	...
	public void onCreate() {
		super.onCreate();
		sdkWrapper = NativeMoveSdkWrapper.getInstance(this);
		sdkWrapper.init(this);
		...
	}
}

or using Kotlin

When using the Health Service, you must register the permission handler in your activity:

Javascript

To setup the SDK in React Native you have to provide and auth code (provided by the backend), MoveSdkConfigarrow-up-right and MoveSdkAndroidConfigarrow-up-right. MoveSdkOptions is optional object with additional SDK configurations.

Setup will return with a promise or throw an error on failure, such as when the code is expired or there is no network available. These errors must be caught.

Previously setup was done using a MoveSdkAutharrow-up-right object.

Next steps

The SDK will provide all relevant information on its status and ability to recognise trips. In order to have up-to-date information about the status of the SDK you can add listenersarrow-up-right (e.g. addSdkStateListenerarrow-up-right to be aware of every MoveSDKStatearrow-up-right change, addTripStateListenerarrow-up-right to be aware of every MoveTripStatearrow-up-right change) or request this information directly (e.g. getStatearrow-up-right and getTripStatearrow-up-right).

In addition, the SDK will report all possible errorsarrow-up-right and warningsarrow-up-right that may prevent the SDK from functioning properly. Among these errors and warnings will be those that indicate a missing permission or incomplete guarantee of certain permission. This is useful for informing the user of certain problems in granting permissions to the host app. To keep track of these errors and warnings you can use listeners (addErrorsListenerarrow-up-right and addWarningsListenerarrow-up-right) or request a list of errors or warnings directly (getErrorsarrow-up-right and getWarningsarrow-up-right).

Also note that for better efficiency all listeners should be added before initialising the SDK. With this approach it's easier to track down and fix all errors and problems, that could be triggered by initialisation or occurred even before initialisation.
