React-native-branch-deep-linking-attribution: How to use with react native 0.60+ and wix react native navigation 3+ on Android

[terreb]

I haven't found any examples for MainActivity.java and MainApplication.java when both wix react native navigation and react-native-branch are used in the same project. If I missed any docs please point me. If anyone has working MainActivity.java and MainApplication.java for react native 0.60+, wix react native navigation and react native branch please share.

Hey there hope this helps:

/* MainActivity.java */
package com.package.name;
import com.reactnativenavigation.NavigationActivity;
import io.branch.rnbranch.*; // <-- add this
import android.content.Intent; // <-- and this
import android.os.Bundle;

public class MainActivity extends NavigationActivity {
    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        super.onStart();
        RNBranchModule.initSession(getIntent().getData(), this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
        super.onNewIntent(intent);
        setIntent(intent);
    }
}

@jinshin1013, thank you for your help! Although it's not relevant for me anymore because I already switched to another solution. Since I won't check if it works I presume it does and am closing the issue.

Hello Mr terred, How did you fix this, So please help me?

I just updated to Branch 5.0.1 and trying to update my android files. I'm running into issues with onStart and getMainComponentName not being possible to override. Do you have an example of how to fix this when using react native navigation?
