GlamAR React Native Demo App

Overview

This is a React Native application that integrates a WebView to load the GlamAR SDK. The WebView requests camera permissions and interacts with the SDK for skin analysis and other AR-based functionalities.

Features

• Loads GlamAR SDK inside a WebView
• Requests camera permissions on Android
• Handles WebView messages to track events
• Sends initialization data to the SDK

Setup and Installation

Prerequisites

• Node.js
• React Native CLI
• Android Studio (for Android development)

Installation Steps

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install

2. Configure the Android SDK path:
   • Open android/local.properties
   • Replace the username in the following line with your own:

     sdk.dir = /users/YOUR_USERNAME/library/android/sdk
     

3. Ensure required permissions are added in AndroidManifest.xml:

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>
   <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="true"/>

4. Start the Metro bundler:

   npx react-native start

5. Build and run the app on Android:

   npx react-native run-android

WebView Integration

The WebView loads the GlamAR SDK and communicates via window.postMessage. The SDK events are handled in onMessage.

Camera Permission Handling

• On Android, camera permission is requested using PermissionsAndroid.
• In MainActivity.java, onPermissionRequest grants camera access for WebView.

Initialization Payload

Initialize the SDK:

GlamAr.init({
  apiKey: 'Your_API_Key',
  platform: 'react_native',
  category: 'skinanalysis',
  configuration: {
    skinAnalysis: {
      appId: 'Your_Skinanalysis_app_ID',
    },
  },
});

Events Handling

To Listen the SDK Events.

const photoLoadedSubscription = GlamAr.on('photo-loaded', (data: any) => {
  console.log('Photo loaded:', data);
});

const loadedSubscription = GlamAr.on('loaded', (data: any) => {
  console.log('glamar loaded', data);
});

// 3) Cleanup on unmount
return () => {
  // NativeEventEmitter returns an EmitterSubscription with remove()
  photoLoadedSubscription?.remove?.();
  loadedSubscription?.remove?.();
};

Troubleshooting

WebView Not Loading

• Ensure the device has an active internet connection.

Camera Permission Issues

• Verify that camera permission is granted in Android settings.
• Ensure onPermissionRequest in MainActivity.java correctly grants camera permissions.

WebView Communication Not Working

• Use console.log(event.nativeEvent.data) inside handleMessage to debug messages received from the WebView.
