• Follow the steps according to the official OneSignal SDK Installation here: https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/installing-the-onesignal-ios-sdk
• Make sure you installed the OneSignal Pod.
• Once you've finished, Open your project in Xcode.

• Drag the file RCTOneSignal.xcodeproj from /node_modules/react-native-onesignal/ios into the Libraries group in the Project navigator. Ensure that Copy items if needed is UNCHECKED!

• Ensure that libRTCOneSignal.a is linked through Link Binary With Libraries on Build Phases:

• Ensure that Header Search Paths on Build Settings has the path $(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native-onesignal set to recursive:

• When you reach AppDelegate.m instructions on the OneSignal documentation, stop and enter this following code snippets instead:

  • Import RCTOneSignal.h:

    #import "RCTOneSignal.h"

  • Synthesize oneSignal after @implementation AppDelegate

    @synthesize oneSignal = _oneSignal;

  • On the application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method, insert the following code (replace YOUR_ONESIGNAL_APP_ID with your OneSignal app ID):

    self.oneSignal = [[RCTOneSignal alloc] initWithLaunchOptions:launchOptions
                                                           appId:@"YOUR_ONESIGNAL_APP_ID"];

  • After application insert the code for the notification event:

    // Required for the notification event.
    - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)notification {
        [RCTOneSignal didReceiveRemoteNotification:notification];
    }

• on AppDelegate.h:

  • Import RCTOneSignal.h:

    #import <RCTOneSignal.h>

  • Declare the RCTOneSignal property:

    @property (strong, nonatomic) RCTOneSignal* oneSignal;

• You're All Set!

In your index.android.js:

import OneSignal from 'react-native-onesignal'; // Import package from node modules
// var _navigator; // If applicable, declare a variable for accessing your navigator object to handle payload.

OneSignal.configure({
  onNotificationOpened: function(message, data, isActive) {
      console.log('MESSAGE: ', message);
      console.log('DATA: ', data);
      console.log('ISACTIVE: ', isActive);
      // Do whatever you want with the objects here
      // _navigator.to('main.post', data.title, { // If applicable
      //  article: {
      //    title: data.title,
      //    link: data.url,
      //    action: data.actionSelected
      //  }
      // });
  }
});

In iOS, we have to wait a little bit before fetching the notification. The reason is that notification is coming too fast, before the main view of the app is being rendered. Therefore, the notification could get lost. We solve it in an ugly way, but working one.

In your index.ios.js:

import OneSignal from 'react-native-onesignal'; // Import package from node modules

var pendingNotifications = [];
// var _navigator; // If applicable, declare a variable for accessing your navigator object to handle payload.
// function handleNotification (notification) { // If you want to handle the notifiaction with a payload.
    // _navigator.to('main.post', notification.data.title, {
    //  article: {
    //    title: notification.data.title,
    //    link: notification.data.url,
    //    action: notification.data.actionSelected
    //  }
    //});
// }

OneSignal.configure({
    onNotificationOpened: function(message, data, isActive) {
        var notification = {message: message, data: data, isActive: isActive};
        console.log('NOTIFICATION OPENED: ', notification);
        //if (!_navigator) { // Check if there is a navigator object. If not, waiting with the notification.
        //    console.log('Navigator is null, adding notification to pending list...');
            pendingNotifications.push(notification);
        //    return;
        // }
        handleNotification(notification);
    }
});

When any notification is opened or received the callback onNotification is called passing an object with the notification data.

Notification object example:

{
    isActive: false, // BOOLEAN: If the notification was received in foreground or not
    message: 'My Notification Message', // STRING: The notification message
    data: {}, // OBJECT: The push data
}

We exposed the tags API of OneSignal (currently on Android) in order to segment people in a better way.

// Sending the tags for the device
OneSignal.sendTags(missingTags);

//Getting the tags from the server and use the received object
OneSignal.getTags((receivedTags) => {
    console.log(receivedTags);
});

//Delete a tag
OneSignal.deleteTag(tag);

We exposed the idsAvailable API of OneSignal (both Android & iOS) as a callback so you can handle it further yourself.

Lets you retrieve the OneSignal user id and push token. Your callback block is called after the device is successfully registered with OneSignal. pushToken will be nil if the user did not accept push notifications.

// Getting idsAvailable
OneSignal.idsAvailable((idsAvailable) => {
    console.log(idsAvailable.pushToken);
    console.log(idsAvailable.userId);
});

We exposed the enableVibrate API of OneSignal (Android only).

You can call this from your UI from a button press for example to give your user's options for your notifications. By default OneSignal always vibrates the device when a notification is displayed unless the device is in a total silent mode. Passing false means that the device will only vibrate lightly when the device is in it's vibrate only mode.

// Setting enableVibrate
OneSignal.enableVibrate(true);

We exposed the enableSound API of OneSignal (Android only).

You can call this from your UI from a button press for example to give your user's options for your notifications. By default OneSignal plays the system's default notification sound when the device's notification system volume is turned on. Passing false means that the device will only vibrate unless the device is set to a total silent mode.

// Setting enableSound
OneSignal.enableSound(true);

We exposed the enableNotificationsWhenActive API of OneSignal (Android only).

By default this is false and notifications will not be shown when the user is in your app, instead the NotificationOpenedHandler is fired. If set to true notifications will always show in the notification area and NotificationOpenedHandler will not fire until the user taps on the notification.

// Setting enableNotificationsWhenActive
OneSignal.enableNotificationsWhenActive(true);

We exposed the enableInAppAlertNotification API of OneSignal (both Android & iOS).

By default this is false and notifications will not be shown when the user is in your app, instead the OneSignalHandleNotificationBlock is fired. If set to true notifications will be shown as native alert boxes if a notification is received when the user is in your app. The OneSignalHandleNotificationBlock is then fired after the alert box is closed.

// Setting enableInAppAlertNotification
OneSignal.enableInAppAlertNotification(true);

We exposed the setSubscription API of OneSignal (both Android & iOS).

You can call this method with false to opt users out of receiving all notifications through OneSignal. You can pass true later to opt users back into notifications

// Setting setSubscription
OneSignal.setSubscription(true);

We exposed the promptLocation API of OneSignal (currently supported only on Android).

Prompts the user for location permissions. This allows for geotagging so you can send notifications to users based on location. Note: Make sure you also have the required location permission in your AndroidManifest.xml.

// Calling promptLocation
OneSignal.promptLocation();

We exposed the requestPermissions API of OneSignal (currently supported only on iOS).

// Setting requestPermissions
permissions = {
    alert: true,
    badge: true,
    sound: true
};
OneSignal.requestPermissions(permissions);

We exposed the registerForPushNotifications API of OneSignal (currently supported only on iOS).

Call when you want to prompt the user to accept push notifications. Only call once and only if you passed false to initWithLaunchOptions autoRegister:.

// Calling registerForPushNotifications
OneSignal.registerForPushNotifications();

The following example is from our own App and needs to be customized in order to work.

Example:

_syncOneSignal = () => {
	var allTags = {};
	var missingTags = {};

	OneSignal.getTags((receivedTags) => {
		// Find missing tags
		for (var i = this.categories.length * 1; i >= 0; i--) {
			var category = this.categories[i];
			if (!(category.slug in receivedTags)) {
				missingTags[category.slug] = category.is_push_default;
			}
			// Hash all tags for performance later on deletion
			allTags[category.slug] = category.is_push_default;
		};

		// Send missing tags if there are any
		if (Object.keys(missingTags).length > 0) {
			OneSignal.sendTags(missingTags);
		}

		// Delete tags that doesn't show up in the categories
		Object.keys(receivedTags).forEach(function(key,index) {
		    if (!(key in allTags)) {
		    	OneSignal.deleteTag(key);
		    }
		});
	});
};
